I just love this movie!

I just love this movie!
Problem Child may get hammered by critics for being too infantile but I can watch it over and over without getting tired. I can't say that about most Oscar winning movies. Problem Child introduced the excellent John Ritter to Amy Yasbeck. This movie brought them together in real life. I love John Ritter and now that he is gone, the movie is more sentimental to remind us what is lost forever. Of course, Problem Child has a great cast besides Ritter and Yasbeck, like Jack Warden as Ritter's father and of course the devilish Michael Oliver as Junior getting into all sorts of trouble. Not to mention Gilbert Gottfried as the adoption agent and Seinfeld's Michael Richards before he became known as Kramer as the serial killer pen pal of Junior's. I mean it is silly but I appreciate it at the end of a long day. Of course, it's funny and it reminds us what John Ritter meant to the world of comedy

Problem Child is an outrageous funny 90's family-fun comedy. Micheal Oliver a crude,funny,vulgar boy giving a performance that'll give the adults and teens chuckles and laughs.

Micheal Oliver a crude,funny,vulgar boy giving a performance that'll give the adults and teens chuckles and laughs. And this movie is Adam Sandler's director Dennis Dugan (Happy Gilmore), directorial debut. Dugan is one of America's worst comedy directors he is so detached to comedy instead of what a director should do hire good actors, making your visions come true! Dugan does the opposite of a good film into a bad one. Grade C+ Expand

Problem Child's unlovable and mean. Also terrible and unfunny.... Problem Child's biggest problem is the many immaturity this child's up to. This movie's not even comedy.
