Time To Find Another Sitter...

I don't enjoy giving bad reviews but Jonah Hill's new comedy 'The Sitter' should probably change its tagline from 'WORST. BABYSITTER. EVER' to the more believable 'WORST. FILM. EVER'.
Don't get me wrong, he is probably the worst babysitter ever, but the film doesn't really progress from there. The concept is decent: lazy student babysits kids with disastrous results, but the execution was poor to say the least. Hill's character is flat and incoherent in his behaviour, the children are just plain odd, and the drug related antics are as unbelievable as the fact that Hill was paid for this film. A drug baron on roller-skates, a child that blows up toilets, with the added bonus of paedophilia jokes: If you don't like the sound of any of these factors, give this one a miss.
