Ben and the psychologist are dorks Junior and Martin Beck are mean Big Ben is selfish and Flo is ambitious and unfaithful. Soon Ben learns that his father is correct will he call off the adoption? "Problem Child" is a brainless film with unpleasant characters. When Ben's father Big Ben (Jack Warden) meets the boy, he immediately tells that Junior is evil. Peabody (Gilbert Gottfried) that manages an orphanage and they adopt the little devil Junior. However his flashy wife Flo (Amy Yasbeck) is infertile and he convinces her to adopt a child. Ben (John Ritter) is a good affectionate man that dreams on being a father. He worships the criminal Martin Beck (Michael Richards) and wears a a bow tie just like his idol. The seven-year-old orphan Junior (Michael Oliver) has been rejected thirty times by his foster parents since he was a baby because he is wicked. Him taking a bat to everybody is actually good but it's a rare smirk worthy joke. This dark comedy needs a better child actor and a more interesting sense of humor. It tries to have heart but it doesn't work.
It's not funny at all and it's basically the same joke over and over again anyways. Then Beck escapes from prison and shows up at their door. Junior is a pen pal to prison inmate The Bow Tie Killer Martin Beck (Michael Richards).
Adoption agent Igor Peabody (Gilbert Gottfried) cons the Healys into taking Junior. He would love to adopt but Florence is selfish who only agrees to adopt so that she can join other parents at parties. His father Big Ben Healy (Jack Warden) sells the sporting goods store and is leaving him with nothing. Ben (John Ritter) and Flo Healy (Amy Yasbeck) are completely 100% infertile. Junior (Michael Oliver) is a real problem child. However it doesn't go well and the baby keeps getting pass along. 6/10 Bethany CoxĪ baby is left on a woman's doorstep. Overall, could have been better but it could have been a hell of a lot worse as well. The soundtrack ain't half bad either, Amy Yasbeck is effective at playing her character like a total snob,Jack Warden is great and the film is nice to look at. That said, it has its good moments, the gags are crude but some of them are amusing, John Ritter is charming in the title role and Gilbert Gottfried is hilarious. I'll drop a few hints, Friedberg-Seltzer movies, Home Alone 4, Cat in the Hat, NeverEnding Story 3 and Superbabies:Baby Geniuses 2 ring a bell? Anyway, the script does have its weak spots, the ending could have been better, Michael Oliver as the truly dysfunctional kid is thoroughly obnoxious at times and the plot is a touch simplistic. There are much worse movies out there, and I will probably be here all night listing them and why they are so bad. Yes it was mediocre and crude at times, but absolutely awful, no. I was expecting to really hate this film, but after seeing it, it wasn't that bad. I know, I know.I should be ashamed of myself for liking this mostly heartless story.but I am not. You would think Junior would love traveling the country committing acts of terror with his pen pal, an escaped maniac from prison! For this reason, I give the film a 6.and had the ending been better I would have scored it higher. throughout the story, the schmaltzy ending simply didn't ring true in the least. The problem I had with the film was the ending. For me, I loved watching most of the vile and awful things Junior did.which is NOT typical, I know.

Afterwards, the new dad ends up spending most of the movie apologizing to everyone for the atrocities the kid committed. Call it a guilty pleasure! The story is about a boy who is thoroughly rotten and spends most of the film tormenting those around him.even after he's adopted from the orphanage by a nice but incredibly naive man (John Ritter). Despite all this, I somehow like the film.which would make many of my friends and family doubt my sanity.
The film is apparently not good for kids to watch because of all the evil and nasty things Junior does and it has a metascore of 27 and an IMDB score of 5.3.both of which are pretty bad. "Problem Child", according to many, is a horrible film in most every way.
