Don't Tell Mom the Babysitter's Dead

I was highly excited to see this movie since the original from 1991 is a favorite. This movie is just not funny. It tries too hard. The unoriginal concept to this was a huge let down. I really tried to enjoy this but I couldn't. The movie is a huge letdown to anyone thinking this might be a funny modern version of the original.

The problem I have with this movie is it's trying to culturally change the original story. The kids were acting too grown. The attitudes these characters displayed were bothering. This movie really paints a bad picture on the original. Even though they call it re-imagined, it just seemed like a hot pile of garbage. I really wanted to rate it 2-stars, but I couldn't. I was giving this the benefit of the doubt too many times and should have just turned it off. I painfully let it play until the end.
