Average Rating:1.9/10

Consensus: Flat direction and actors who look embarrassed to be onscreen make Baby Geniuses worse than the premise suggests.

Runtime: 1 hr 35 mins

Genre: Comedies

Synopsis: When two doctors (Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd) set out to dominate the world once they discover they can crack the code to a secret baby language, it is only two-year-old Sly and his twin... When two doctors (Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd) set out to dominate the world once they discover they can crack the code to a secret baby language, it is only two-year-old Sly and his twin brother Whit who can stop them.

Goofy comedy will appeal to those with a taste for the unusual. Directed by Bob Clark (A CHRISTMAS STORY, PORKY'S.) [More]
