Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

This movie is about a male scientist that, for a scientific experiment, agrees to carry a pregnancy in his own body (!). And while his colleague's former wife is also pregnant, he also befriends a nurse (and hilarious situations follows).Personally I found the movie funny at times. I'll say to the haters ''Come on folks it's a comedy''. But I'll explain the reasons why I didn't rated this movie higher than 5. And it's better than the overall rating of 4,6 would suggest.The pros: Schwarzenegger, DeVito and Emma Thompson were the strong point of the movie, they did the best with the material they were given. I liked especially the scene when Arnold ends in drag at a clinic specialized in pregnancy, and some weeks later along with DeVito and Emma rush to the hospital along with DeVito's wife.The cons: The concept of a pregnant man can disturb many sensible persons, and I personally felt queasy about the subject matter. Thanks to the nightmare scene (although many wouldn't agree with me, I found it very funny). And the villain, played by Frank Langella, it's not a very believable villain, as he is defeated easily.However I found the movie funny and likeable, but in some points shallow and silly. But this is not always a bad thing, like in this case.

I was interested in seeing this movie if only because Mike Nelson of "Mystery Science Theater 3000" said this was the second worst comedy of all time. I'll be the first to admit this movie is bad. It's very boring with no laughs. But really, the second worst comedy of all time? This was worse than Carrot Top making a backpack so you can stick things up your butt and vomit in a suit? Uh, no it isn't. Carrot Top is much worse. He claims this movie causes constant vomiting. Please don't tell him about "Disaster Movie" which was ranked as the worst movie of all time here at one point. I know it was made long after the list, but there's no way it couldn't be #1.It had a guy smearing poop on his face and a pregnant girl getting eaten alive by Alvin and the Chipmunks with her fetus being used as a weapon. I could barely count any bodily fluids in this movie at all. The movie is definitely bad because it doesn't function as a comedy. Honestly, maybe if it had been done as a straightforward drama, it could have worked. The actors aren't really bad or anything, they're just dull. Sure, there's not much going on, but it's not much bad going on with the lack of good as well. This is a film you can definitely skip, but it's in no way one of the worst films ever. Roger Ebert gave this three and a half stars so I'm thinking a lot less of one of these two guys.**

Junior(1994) Starring: Arnold Schwarzenegger, Danny Devito, Emma Thompson, Frank Langella, Pamela Reed, Aida Turturro, Megan Cavanagh, Welker White, Christopher Meloni, Misa Koprova, James Eckhouse, Mindy Seeger, Alexander Enberg, Mary Gordon Murray, Stefan Gierasch, Ryan Doss, Zachary Doss, Brianna McConnell, Brittany McConnell, Lawrence T. Wrentz, and Tom Dugan Directed By: Ivan Reitman Review NOTHING IS INCONCEIVABLE Hello Kiddies your pal the cupid critic here, you ever thought about what would happen if a guy was pregnant well imagine if that guy was Arnold Schwarzeneger pretty funny right? Wrong! As part of a fertility research project, a male scientist agrees to carry a pregnancy in his own body. Now let me explain to you how an Arnold Schwarzeneger movie is made, hey studio executive I have an idea for a movie. A movie or a poster, well a poster of course. I see Arnold Schwarzenager with a toy gun, baby, he's pregnant. Okay go on.He's got a huge belly and everything and he's like what? I'm pregnant.That doesn't happen. That is true that doesn't happen. And we can have that short guy from twins cause Arnold was in Twins, but it's not Twins. Of course not. And lets get a British female. The movie has one goal, be funny, which it is not and apparently this is a romance/drama film as to how I have no idea idea. But I honestly believe that its primary goal at the time was to be a cool poster. The story does sound interesting for a comedy but apparently their are moments were your suppose to take the situation seriously which baffles me, I mean come on its Arnold Schwarezneger with a baby I should be laughing my ass off. Can you guess what this movie is, boring. I mean its bad when I'm actually praying for it to be insensitive and insulting. Maybe we can get some humor across, I guess the actors are alright and Arnold doesn't come across as half bad in this but that's the problem, we want him to be bad in this. I'm giving Junior a half out of five.

Junior is a mediocre movie with a mediocre storyline and a great comedic cast.This had more potential that what it delivered,it being a reunion for Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito following Twins and also directed by the legendary Ivan Reitman,it's story also had some good potential but it needed to be a lot more goofy and self aware of its ridiculous subject matter in order to be a good comedy.I felt like the movie treated itself too seriously,because I was expecting a story where Schwarzenegger is the worlds first pregnant man to be a really stupid comedy,but instead it was quite dramatic at times and focused on a love story,that was my main problem,it just needed to be more of a comedy.There is great chemistry between Arnold and DeVito and also Emma Thompson,who seemed to get along with both of them and they all seemed to enjoy working together.It has some good moments,but Junior takes itself too seriously and just isn't funny enough to be a comedy I would recommend. A research scientist becomes the worlds first pregnant man in order to test his new drug for expectant women.Best Perfornance: Danny DeVito Worst Performance: Pamela Reed
