Noah Griffith (Hill), is a washed up college drop out living with his mother, jobless, relationship problems, you name it Noah's future isn't looking bright. So his mother convinces him to babysit a friends kids to help her out. What ensues is actually, what I found to be a very original comedy filled with some, interesting if mildly tasteless humor.
I did watch the un-rated edtion of this movie, but unlike the poster below, they never went to a strip club, or maybe I blinked? They do however get mixed up in a robbery, a bar mitzvah, a couple of parties, destroy a few restaurants and anger the local drug dealer. As this occurs Noah of course mature from his irresponsible beginning to a more morally sounds character.
On a random side note, didn't pop-tarts start as a breakfast food? I mean rainbow cookie isn't a breakfast pastry, it's just a large rectangular cookie.
Is that Mr. T?! |
Come on, no kid wears truck pajamas with cowboy boots. He should be wearing cowboy pajamas. |
I won't say much else in order not to ruin the movie. I thought it was original, although some say it is rather predictable. I think I just haven't watched enough comedies lately. I predicted most of The Hunger Games, which seemed pretty textbook, I guess I just don't have the comedy textbook yet. Either way if comedies are your thing, check out The Sitter, don't expect to much but maybe it will surprise you.
