Flash Movie Review: The Sitter

If I knew this movie was going to be as bad as it was, I would have brought a jigsaw puzzle with me. Starring Jonah Hill (Superbad, Moneyball) before his weight loss, as Noah Griffith, an unmotivated college student; this role was the same as other roles Jonah has done prior to Moneyball. There was the same straight face sarcasm, the same foul language and the same ridiculous situations. Agreeing to do a babysitting job to help friends of his Mother; Jonah is not prepared to handle the 3 children and what the night has in store for all of them. Yes, I know, a real surprise here; we never would have imagined such a clever plot line. I was bored throughout the movie and can honestly say, for what is being labeled a comedy, I chuckled at a total of three lines of dialog. In fact, even the previews were dumb. So I guess when those movies come out, I will be forced to review reality TV shows.

About moviejoltz

From a long line of movie afficionados, one brother was the #1 renter of movies in the country with Blockbuster, I am following in the same traditions that came before me. To balance out the long hours seated in dark movie theaters, I also teach yoga and cycling. For the past 3 years, I have correctly picked the major Oscar winners... so join me as we explore the wonder of movies and search for that perfect 4 star movie.
