Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Mommy, mommy, don't let her stay
Review: A very interesting idea. A babysitter who is so attractive that she influences erotic fantasies in everyone she meets. But when the daydreams turn into nightmares at the expense of a life, the party's over. Good execution of a good idea is spoiled by the music. The score is just so utterly innopropriate for a movie like this, that is drags the whole thing down to pit level. And Silverstone's character also metamorphesizes in the end, doing a complete 160 degree that no one was expecting. The moral: Don't drink a drive, kids.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Pretty disappointed
Review: After watching Clueless and falling for the looks of Alicia Silverstone, I thought I'd try out some of her other stuff. I have to say that as much as I like her, the film was pretty bad. The storyline was terrible and the acting was pretty poor. I only recommend watching this to get a look at Alicia, but if you want a good movie, go elsewhere.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: ALICIA ALWAYS WORTH WATCHING
Review: Alicia fanatics (I am one) find her always easy to watch because of her looks but also for her first rate acting ability.

I thought the movie was hilarious. J. T. Walsh. George Segal and Lee Garlington (especially her) portray how foolish people their age act.

The directing and editing are first rate.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Young Alicia is cute and great looking here.
Review: Alicia gives and takes it away, those looking to see Alicia will see some of her but she wears a towel in the bathtub and there is nothing to see but those legs and eyes. The kid things of it with Alicia, I say get a life.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: see-through skirt and boots.
Review: Alicia in a see through skirt wearing boots is the only reason why I watched the stupid picture. What a body. Reminds me of Eleana Dokic the tennis player from Yugo only 19 bur with a slammin rearend!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent erotic-thriller!
Review: Alicia Silverstone is perfect for the part as the innocent babysitter who gives every man--including the 8 year old boy she babysits--passionate fantasies. How can you not enjoy this?? It's brilliant!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: seduced by the sitter
Review: good movie with some ok twists and turns. Nicky Katt, the one who gets hit with the car at the end is great. though Jeremy London seems misplaced but Alicia Silverstone is great in the imagination. though it lags but it's older cast.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: UGGGHHHHHHHH!!!!
Review: I can't even begin to tell anyone NOT to waste your money on renting this movie. I bought it because I enjoy Alicia Silverstone, but after seeing this movie... I have to wonder.

Plot was beyond stupid, the fantasy scenerios that they play throughout the movie was soooo irrating. Every Male in the city WANTS "The Babysitter" and every person in this movie periodically go off into their own Fantasy world, which does not help the process or flow of the storyline.

They really could have made this into a better flick without the two boyfriends, the drunken couple and "The Babysitter" (who it seemed to me forgot how to act)

By the time the film was over I was so utterly frustrated that I had spent money on this one, that even the ending was the best part..... IT WAS OVER

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: totally pointless
Review: i was at first excited to see the movie because it looked semi-promising, but i absolutely hated it. i don't dislike alicia, but i'm not a big fan of her and she had absolutely no personality in this movie whatsoever. i know what the director was trying for, and they did not accomplish it at all. there was no background, no plot, and too much of a depressing setting. the thing that annoys me is it could have been good and the idea behind it was good, but the carry-out totally missed the target. the ending was not built up enough, and there was no reason for what happened. it also never explained why alicia didn't want to see her b/f (the football kid with the glasses)or why she was mad at him, which was an ridiculously underdeveloped side plot. no offense to any fans of it, but i do not recommend this movie at all, unless you like underdeveloped themes and characters, or unless you are a HARDCORE alicia fan (which i am not, so it made the movie that much worse).

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Rather good
Review: It's not her best movie, but it's ok I think. I must say I found the plot a bit screwed - but Alicia's so wonderfull that she alone makes it worth watching. END
