Baby Geniuses (1998) Baby Geniuses

Baby Geniuses ★½ 1998 (PG) Steals the most irritating parts of "Look Who's Talking," "Home Alone" and that creepy dancing baby and pastes them onto a lame good kids vs. evil adults plot. Turner and Lloyd are evil scientists attempting to crack the secret language of babies, which they believe holds the secrets of the universe (such as how to enjoy drooling and making in your pants). Standing in their way are nursery school operators Cattrall and MacNichol and an array of babies that spout inane dialogue thanks to an abuse of computer morphing. The effect is more disturbing than cute, and an excellent supporting cast is wasted. More interesting things can be found inside a diaper. 94m/C VHS, DVD. Kathleen Turner, Christopher Lloyd, Kim Cattrall, Peter MacNicol, Dom DeLuise, Ruby Dee, Kyle Howard, Leo Fitzgerald, Myles Fitzgerald, Gerry Fitzgerald; Director: Bob (Benjamin) Clark; Writer: Bob (Benjamin) Clark, Steven Paul, Francisca Matos, Robert Grasmere, Greg Michael; Writer: Stephen M. Katz; Cameo: Paul Zaza.
