I cannot believe how stupid this movie is. The first to Problem Childs were okay, but this one was REALLY bad. There was no plot whatsoever, and the dialogue was unbelievably terrible. Ok, so Junior's being driven home by his dad after paralyzing his teacher. His dad says, "There's been a lot of accidents lately," and Junior says, "It's that time of year," and gives a retarded chuckle, then realizes his dad is mad, so he says "So you don't like me anymore"?!!!??!!!!!! That was the lamest thing I had ever seen in a movie. It's obvious the scriptwriter took no time into making the script make sense. I give this movie a 0, but if I could give it less I would say -1,000.
No no no. It just doesn't work without the original characters. Avoid.
This movie was terrible! The first and second Problem Childs were OK, but this one was just unbelieveable. There was no plot whatsoever--the only good part about it was Gilbert Gottfried. Ok, so Juniors driving in his car after paralyzing his teacher, and his dad says "There's been a lot of accidents lately," and he says "It's that time of year" and gives that retarted chuckle?!! How dumb is that?! Or when he uses a chainsaw to cut a tree and make it fall on Scoutmaster Phlim and push him into the ground--I laughed my head off on how stupid and un-funny that looked. The makers of this movie obviously took no time into making the script of this make sense--It's unbelievable.
I agree the originals were the best Problem Child and Problem Child 2 with Michael Oliver and John Ritter. After hearing about Problem Child 3. I thought they were going to bring Michael Oliver and John Ritter back together again after he got married in Problem Child 2. Well, after watching Problem 3 with William Katt and Justin Chapman I thought this one was funny and not too bad. Justin Chapman did good as well playing the Junior character and it had a good cast as well and some hilarious scenes.
I love the Problem Child series and all three of them has brought laughs. The problem series are great classic and funny childhood family films. Michael Oliver and Justin Chapman did awesome playing the Junior character. I recommend Problem Child to all families.

At the time of writing the movie has a resounding 2.2 score and it justly deserves it. Synopsis: the "Problem Child", Junior, fancies a girl, beats (literally) three rivals only to find that the girl was not worth the fight.
I'm sorry to say, but the movie contains no single shred of humor [1], the story is bad and the acting is wooden. I don't think the focus group of the movie (6-9 years old) might like it, and it's simply not to be recommended.
[1] Unless you think hanging someone to the ceiling ventilator by their braces is funny. Or hitting someone with a tree on their head.

- TriviaThe name Corky McClullen, the famous child actor in the movie, is a tongue-in-cheek parody of Macaulay Culkin, who was the highest paid child actor at the time this movie was being made.
- GoofsEven though Junior threw away his polka-dot bow-tie in the final scene of the first film, he is wearing it again in almost every scene.
