the story is simple. the locations are limited. the actors are not numerous. the jokes, though, are original and humorous. feelings of sadness just as well as happiness are portrayed frequently and honestly. we are also presented with a couple of songs. They all seem to be sung by the actors themselves, even the cute little girl. That's almost overdoing it, but acceptable. All in all enjoyment. p.s. B.K. actually plays a double role: Babs and Carla (bitch)

nice warm comedy, that doesn't pretend to be 'funniest thing of the year'
flappie5 February 2001
BABS is not one of those comedies where you laugh your ass off, by every act of the funny characters. It is an honest film, of a kindred spirit with an edge. Though, never a great fan fan of Kaandorp, that has changed with seeing her act in this movie... No 'pretentious know-it-all comedian, but like the film, carefully mesmerizing in little abstract dialogues and situations... seeing is believing?
