Junior
Description
"The Funniest Film Of The Year!" — Patrick Stoner, FLICKS/PBS
"'Junior' Delivers Big, Big, Laughs!" — Joel Siegel, GOOD MORNING AMERICA
What happens when Arnold Schwarzenegger gets pregnant? The hilarious answer is delivered in this delightful comedy from Ivan Reitman, the director of Ghostbusters and Twins. Co-starring Danny DeVito and Academy Award winner Emma Thompson, it's a radiant, laugh-inducing farce that touches the heart as deftly as it tickles the funnybone.
Schwarzenegger portrays Dr. Alex Hesse, who with his associate, Dr. Larry Arbogast (DeVito), has developed a wondrous new drug to ensure healthy pregnancies. But when the government forbids further testing of their creation, Alex and Larry secretly move forward with a daring plan.
To succeed, they must cope with a snooping, villainous research administrator (Frank Langella) and the brilliant, beautiful-but-klutzy scientists, Dr. Diana Reddin (Thompson).
The seeds are sown for a hysterical, high-spirited whirlwind of humor, romance and tender insights into the magnificent power of maternal love. It's a blessed event Siskel and Ebert give "Two thumbs up!"
