The Sitter
Noah is a young man expelled from college and treated by his girlfriend Marissa badly. Noah had nothing to do except watch television and his mother's service. In order to satisfy his mother, he agreed to sit with the three bold children, Slater, Blith and Rodrigo. Noah will take that thrilling trio to the streets of New York where he faces many situations and challenges. But his adventure may be disrupted when he finds himself fleeing from a drunken drug man.

An interesting example of the trailer being better than the film, not because it gave away all the good scenes, but because the scenes are only funny in a vacuum.

The Sitter is a pretty funny, absurdist 'worst babysitter ever' story that gives glimpses of serious commentary disguised by dick jokes and the David Gordon Green Pineapple Express & Your Highness ethos - without ever surpassing it's predecessors.

Hill has a natural talent for making any situation funny with his deadpan humor, but in The Sitter it only goes so far.

Anyone expecting The Sitter to be an especially memorable trip to the theater may just want to give their own babysitter the night off and stay home with the kids.

For every laugh offered by The Sitter, there are five minutes of boredom and at least one failed scene of would-be "dramatic" character building.

The Sitter is mediocrity at its finest; too boring to hate and too forgettable to get angry about. Save your money and rewatch Uncle Buck instead.

The Sitter seems to have a good heart, so why all the glib racism?

It does not care for your soft comedy.

The Sitter is a mess because of a lot of things, but most of the blame should be focused on a lazy script that could have been written in a single afternoon.

The Sitter wants to have its urinal cake and eat it too, pushing the envelope of taste one minute and then delivering maudlin little life lessons the next.

Hill plays Noah with just the right amount of self-loathing, deep down convinced of his own merit, not needing to humiliate anyone to prove it.

A noisy, unfocused, frequently annoying and intermittently offensive slapstick misfire.
