(Plot) A lazy college student that is serving a suspension is cajoled into being a babysitter for the kids next door. What he doesn't realize is that he is getting much more than he bargained for than just a few measly bucks
With these types of comedies, it's not hard to tell what you're getting. They go out of their way to cross the line to make people laugh, and usually I find that lazy, but I can't help but admit that I managed to have a decent time with this one. Most of the kids are whiny and unlikable, it goes for the kitchen sink in terms of being rancid, but I couldn't help but laugh at it. Maybe it was just the mood I was in, but I had some fun. Jonah Hill is his usual dependable self. His lazy character is detestable and I absolutely loved it. Kevin Hernandez is by far the best of the bunch of the kids as Rodrigo. He steals the show as the malevolent kid. I got a kick out of him. And, of course, we get the ever reliable Sam Rockwell.
Final Thoughts: It's not great, but what do you really expect when it comes to this film? Turn your brain off, and have a few laughs!
6/10
