Don't Tell Mom The Babysitter's Dead aspires to be a cross between Home Alone and Risky Business, with Christina Applegate as an inadvertent scam artist who gets in over her head and somehow pulls it off. When her mother goes to Australia for two months, Sue Ellen (Applegate) thinks she's going to be in charge--until an elderly tyrant of a babysitter arrives. But on the very first night the old lady has a heart attack and keels over. Sue Ellen and her siblings leave the body at a mortuary, only to discover afterward that all the money their mother had left for the summer was in the babysitter's clothes. So Sue Ellen has to get a job. Thanks to a trumped-up resume, she ends up as an executive assistant at a clothing manufacturer. For a while she keeps her head above water by skillfully exploiting a friendly coworker, but her brothers and sisters are running amok at home and a venomous receptionist has it in for her at work. The role-reversal humor of Sue Ellen having to mother her siblings is unsurprising, but Applegate is unexpectedly appealing; her scenes with Josh Charles (Dead Poet's Society, Threesome) have a sweet chemistry. Joanna Cassidy (Blade Runner, The Laughing Policeman) plays Sue Ellen's boss and a young David Duchovny (The X-Files, The Rapture) is a weaselly clerk. --Bret Fetzer

2.0 out of 5 stars don't tell anyone you watched this movie Nov 18 2007
By falcon TOP 1000 REVIEWER
Format:DVD
it isn't good.i didn't find it funny at all.i did find it boring and
stupid,though,so i guess that's something.not something good,but still
something.i couldn't finish the whole movie,i was so bored.in the 45
minutes i watched,i never laughed once.i figured if the movie wasn't
good by then,it wasn't gonna get any better.the premise is an
interesting one,but the execution falls flatter than than a
pancake.somewhere between page and scree it falls apart.the average
rating here is 4/5 and i would have to disagree with that rating.for
me,Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead is a just slightly above awful
2/5.

Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead is an okay movie; it is different and that makes it different from any other slapstick comedy.The cast isn't that big besides Applegate. Read more
