| IMDb profile | |
Baby Geniuses is a 1999 action/comedy directed by Bob Clark, rated PG for crude humor and mild expletives and violence.
The film was financially successful, earning US $27 million gross against a US $13 million budget. It was critically panned; it was ranked by leading film critic Roger Ebert as one of his most hated movies. As of September 03, 2006, Baby Geniuses ranks #29 in IMDB's Bottom 100 list.
Computer-generated imagery effects were used to digitally superimpose moving lips over baby's mouths, an effect similarly used in Clutch Cargo. The film's plot revolves around two scientists played by Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd using genius baby studies to fund their Babyco theme park. At age two, the children are due to 'cross over', learn to talk, and forget their universal knowledge.
It was followed by a sequel, SuperBabies: Baby Geniuses 2, in 2004. This film now resides in the "top" ten of IMDB's Bottom 100 list. As of March 19, 2007, it is #38, behind such films as Phat Girlz and Material Girls. Baby Geniuses 3[1] is also currently in the pre-production stages.
