I must admit that I don't like 'talking baby' movies. They're innately weird. This stupefying mess is the nadir of this tiny genre. Kathleen Turner has given some fine performances particularly in the 80's in very good films like "Body Heat", "Prizzi's Honor", "The Accidental Tourist" and "The War of the Roses". Christopher Lloyd has done well in films and on TV's 'Taxi'. So what they're doing in this moronic junk is anyone's guess. This was the worst film of 1999 and a top contender for the worst films of the decade. At least "Look Who's Talking" was good-natured and had a few laughs. "Baby Geniuses" is just two big spoonfuls of idiocy, peppered with ineptitude, on a plate of vapid nothingness. Zero of ****.
