Q: Is this movie worth the price of admission?
A:
Go! Yes, it's R-rated and shows children swearing, stealing, blowing things up, and partying with dangerous grown-ups until the wee hours of the night, but isn't that what's great about it?!Q: Will this movie make me laugh?
A: The laughs aren't non-stop, but when they come they are subtle and clever, and generally make you happy you're there.
Q: Will this movie make me cry?
A: It made me sad that there weren't more people in the theater. Mostly because there would have been a lot more laughs if there were.
Q: Will this movie be up for any awards?
A: Best Commercial Comedy that Nobody Decided to See.
Q: How is the Acting?
A: Most of the laughs wouldn't be there if it weren't for the actors' awkward delivery. Jonah Hill is known for this style of acting, but Erin Daniels, in the small role of the mom, does a great job of laughing awkwardly at her own weird dialogue, too.
Q: How is the Directing?
A: David Gordon Greene has done bigger movies and smaller movies, and he seems absolutely comfortable at any level.
Q: How is the story/script?
A: Okay, so it's not the most original or artistic thing you've ever seen, but it captures the fish-out-of water comedy caper genre at least as well as Date Night did. And frankly, after sitting through several weeks of mediocre to bad awards contenders, this kind of improbably fun ride is a welcome relief.
Q: Where can I see the trailer?
A: The Sitter Trailer
