i loved this movie

As a child i vagely watched parts of this movie and I'm glad i remembered enough to search google over 3 hours to figure out the title and I'm so glad i did. The humor is brilliant, the cast lineup is perfect. This movie had me laughing nearly every moment i was watching. Not many family movies capture humor and deliver it well. If you have kids i would definitely recommend this for a movie night event.

No... please, no

Look, this film is terrible... the "plot" involves twins who are neglected by their self-absorbed parents, and left in the care of a succession of nannies and babysitters, all of whom the children drive away by being completely obnoxious. Eventually the kids engineer ex-convict Beverly D'Angelo to be their new nanny, do you care why? And D'Angelo watches a TV talk show about selling children and decides she will try to sell the twins... and, well, oh, you don't want to know. It's all very unpleasant, and not at all funny. In fact the announcer slated this film before it came on the TV channel I was watching! Just don't bother wasting a single moment of your life on this pile of complete trash, y'hear?

Wow! (:

I love this movie . The Whites were hilarious . The "Special Way" (the Indian guy) man was amazing , so amazing in fact , that my friend and I created a song just for him . (: He touched my life , and i'm forever thankful to the person who created this amazing movie . The humor is just like mine , and it's very silly for a movie made in the 90's . I would totally buy this movie and watch it again and again and again n. It's a real family movie . You and your family/friends would enjoy it very much . It's given me so many laughs ! We love you Special Way Man. This movie will touch your life, and make you think twice about touching your wife ! :D Over all , great movie .

Rather amusing movie with a great comedy cast.

I bought this movie online because it was written and directed by Michael McDonald of "Mad TV" fame. It also has Ed Begley Jr. and Phil Hartman. The DVD case makes a big deal about being "family entertainment", but this movie is certainly questionable as a kid's movie. As a comedy there are lots of amusing things going on with a great supporting cast trying to move things forward. Sadly like most mainstream comedies, the story starts to run out of comedic bits to put it in the "must see" category. It is a great addition to any collector's library as a curiosity piece, but ultimately not a great choice if you are looking for a great comedy rental

Horrible!!

This is the worst movie I have ever seen. A women who gets kicked out of prison becomes the nannie of two bratty twins and decides to try and sell them after seeing a T.V. show about what a kid would be worth. It is possibly the worst movie ever made.I was just shocked at the stupidity and little effort put into the movie even by the title you can tell this movie isint going to be a good one.

Trivia
Carol Kane and Lisa Kudrow appear later in Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt (2016).

Goofs
The overhead shot of the parents leaving the house and going into the driveway with Edie, casts a shadow of the boom mic on the pavement.

Quotes
Mr. White: Alright Jason, it's very simple. There's a piece of lint somewhere on my person. All you have to do is find it and remove it, alright?
Bea Van Arsdale: [whispering] Why are they making us do this?
Edie: [whispering] For the money. I mean, for the play money. It's a game. By the way, you did really well identifying those cleansers strictly by smell.
Bea Van Arsdale: [whispering] Thanks, it's fun to sniff vapors.
Edie: [whispering] Yeah, I'm proud of you.
Bea Van Arsdale: [whispering] That's the first time anyone's ever said that to me.
Jason Van Arsdale: Now, if I were a piece of lint, where would I be?
Mr. White: Hurry up and find it little boy. I don't like knowing there's a foreign object on me.
[squirming]
Mr. White: I'm beginning to get the heebie-jeebies. Please find it soon, Jason.
Jason Van Arsdale: I'm looking! Relax!
Mr. White: [turns to Mrs. White] He wants me to relax.
Mrs. White: I heard.
Mr. White: [grabs Jason's face by the cheeks] Listen, mister! I'm doing this for your benefit now you shut your trap and find that lint! Oh my god, oh! I can practically feel it burning a hole through my sweater!
Mrs. White: Oh!
Mr. White: Look up higher, Jason! Listen to me, I just told you it was on my sweater!
Mrs. White: Take it easy puddin', I'm right here!
Mr. White: Look! Somewhere here on my torso, Jason! For crying out loud, find it! Ah, god, I feel like I've got a scorpion on me!
Mrs. White: Are you alright?
Mr. White: No, I am not, Rita! What were we thinking? I mean, lint can consist of any number of disgusting things like flea eggs and pubic hair. And now it's on me and this little pea-brain can't even find it!
Edie: [whispering] Get it, Jason.
Mr. White: [shaking Jason by the shoulders] Hurry up and find it before I'm completely disgusted!
Mrs. White: Oh little boy can't you see my husband is in agony? Now you get it!
Mr. White: [still shaking Jason] Find it!
Mrs. White: Get it!
Edie: Get it!
Mr. White: [still shaking Jason] Find it!
Edie: Get it!
Mr. White: [still shaking Jason] Yes, find it!
Edie: Get it, Jason! No!
Mrs. White: [Jason vomits all over Mr. and Mrs. White as they scream in disgust] Tomato sauce, oh!
