I would explain the plot, but words cannot describe the emotional, thrilling masterpiece that is Superbabies: Baby Genuises2.
I took two kids (nine and four) to see this movie. I knew it wouldn't be good, because the first one wasn't, and this one is a sequel starring Scott Baio. Now I volunteer to watch bad movies, and I'm easily amused, but I had no idea it would be like this. Never have I wanted so badly to dig my eyes out with a spoon. Everyone in the cast could benefit from a lobotomy. I don't count the actual babies because I'm not convinced they were real. The teen romance is on par with the touching love story in "Young Lust in the Leper Colony". And there was... a moral? Somewhere? Yeah, the moral is children are idiots, parents are suckers, and you'll watch our brain-damaging movies and like them. This movie makes me nostalgic for "Glitter", "From Justin To Kelly" and "Manos: The Hands of Fate". And I would rather be nailed to a chair and forced to watch those three films back to back for a week, than sit through this piece of s**t movie, ever again.
For the record, I had a blinding headache after the first 20 minutes, the four year old threw up, and the nine year old fell asleep. So nobody wins.

Here are my hastily-prepared excuses:
I promised my daughter I'd baby-sit for her son from 11 AM to 4 PM. It was cool and overcast and rain was predicted. I didn't want to go to a park... and after lunch, when I mentioned "Superbabies," the deal was struck!
Background: My grandson fell in love with superheroes this year, and he has been alternately garbed as Spiderman and Superman, as well as a pirate complete with eye patch and skull-and-crossbones hat. His favorite possession is his plastic sword! Yesterday, going to the movie, he asked me if I could get him a parrot to sit on his shoulder!
He loved the movie and gave it two "thumbs up" (both his)! So, if you have an almost four-year-old, it might work for you. Otherwise, forget it. I paid $10.50 for both of us (one senior and one child) and slept through this movie.

I'll be honest, I've seen many, many movies in my life. But Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2 has got to be the best! Just when I thought the first one couldn't get any better, Bob Clark released this one! I admit, I cried a few times from the sheer suspense in this movie.
The plot is absolutely genius! Scientists wanting to understand baby talk? Who could've possibly come up with such magnitude of greatness? Oh yeah, my idol: Bob Clark. Despite his shitty movie "A Christmas Story", he has got to be the best director of our generation. Kubrick literally has nothing on him. The casting is also fantastic: The 3 Fitzgerald brothers returned, thankfully. Their schedules are busy with cinema opportunities, we all know, but I'm so thankful that they could return. Please, if you have any free time, watch this movie. It's literally the best creation on Planet Earth. I've never seen anything like this masterpiece. Please, do it for me. Watch this incredible, flawless film and quit wasting your time with "Pulp Fiction", and "Taxi Driver", and other junk movies.

I've heard a lot of fuss that this movie is "bad" and even "not good". I understand its not exactly "the godfather" or the original "baby geniuses", however I think that the cinematography and the acting prowess of John Voight set this film apart as one that all children should see. Beneath the plot lie morals and lessons that can apply to all. I don't want to give away any spoilers but it should be noted that the ending is not to be missed!
I bought the DVD to watch with my son not expecting much and I was blown away. The cinematography is such that it actually appears that the babies are talking! As if that were not enough, the special effects put you right in the action as if you were one of the baby geniuses fighting the evil forces of Kane (Voight)!
This is surely not to be missed and I expect we will be hearing more about this film when the Oscars roll around!

- Alternate versionsFollowing its theatrical run, the film has been modified for home media by its domestic distributor, Sony Pictures Releasing. Dubbed as a "Family Edition", the usage of guns during the climax in the third act has been omitted. It was only available in the family-friendly full screen format on DVD and videocassette, and still has been PG-rated like in the theatrical release. However, all non-NA territories were unaffected.
