You won't be disappointed!
the audience applauded
Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
My daughter is 11 and loved the movie we all have watched together...These actors have chemistry and we can feel it strongly...we all think the first movie is the best...Travolta's entertaining the kids makes all remember ours fathers and ourselves. Great movie, I just bought the DVD on eBay too bad no Blu-ray...always cry and laugh with this movie. Thanks to everyone that gave his best to it happen!
"Look Who's Talking" was a box-office smash, mostly for the gimmick of the audience being able to hear the baby's inner thoughts. This gimmick, and some amusing fantasy sequences, help carry an otherwise ordinary and predictable story, though it does run out of steam. John Travolta gets to play a charming goofball, Kirstie Alley is in her prime, and Bruce Willis does some good voice work. It's strange: the film is pretty raunchy for "family entertainment", but it would have been funnier if it was even raunchier - which, of course, would cost it an R rating and a decrease in family tickets. **1/2 out of 4.
I watched this around the time it came out and loved it then and I still love it.The acting isn't always perfect, but it's always entertaining. I was never bored. I certainly wish there was less swearing and that the 'almost love scene' was left out, so that I could sit down and watch this with my kids.John Travolta and Kirsty Ally are both completely lovable in their roles. Although the movie fails to take me through their more rough emotions with them. I don't feel for her when her baby's daddy doesn't follow through with his fatherly responsibilities. And I don't really feel for him over his unfulfilled (at least temporarily) love.I guess that is what makes this film so fun though. You are not brought down so you can just focus on the fun and uplifting parts without your mind dwelling on the trials of the characters.I highly recommend this film to anybody who won't get hung up on the little things (and I think that's most people). So, go rent it. It may be old for a film, but it hasn't lost any of it's sparkle. Enjoy.
This movie stars talking babies...But other than that the entire premise of this movie struck me as being more than a little dubious. This movie seemed to glamorize Section 8 single moms and made successful corporate tycoons seem like they are occasionally unfaithful to their spouses. Remembering McCarthyism all too well, this makes me wonder which side of the aisle the film makers were on... As a side, however, The computer graphics in this movie were amazing, but I didn't let the eye candy fool me into forgetting my core values. Hollywood can't tell me what to think, unless it has an awesome ending like Independence Day. The Musical score was also excellent. I didn't catch who did it because I was so displeased with the film itself during the credits, but kudos to whomever was involved!I was confused why no one seemed to notice that Mikey could talk. This made me think that the movie would have a "Sixth Sense" kind of ending where we would find out that Mikey was actually dead the entire time which is why no one could hear him (but it didn't end this way, instead James and THE WELFARE QUEEN fell in love). I think this may have been the precursor to Baby's Day Out (which I haven't seen yet, but I've played the game Baby's Day Out on NES...very challenging...)
