Adventures in Babysitting Ratings & Reviews
- Jonathan KillebrewDecember 1, 2025A cute family film. Funny, with a little quirky action that gives to the 80's filming style and great writing of the age.
- Patrick WaiNovember 16, 2025A John Hughes-type 80s movie except the writing was not as good.
- JameslikesmoviesJuly 25, 2025Great movie, had to watch the dubbed version on Disney+ cause of some of the cuss words they use in it but other than that it was really funny and I enjoyed watching it
- mickerdooSeptember 16, 2025Funny 80s stumble around comedy. Shue is gorgeous and does well in the lead. Supporting cast delivers, too. A silly, easy watch.
- Andrew HislopSeptember 7, 2025Great fun.
- AlejandroSeptember 2, 2025This is a classic!
