Excellent but underrated film

While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This's a good example of why some sequels shouldn't have: Problem Child 3 does get its laughs in but for the most part it falls flat hard. Less than a handful of the cast reprise their roles from the first 2. Sadly, John Ritter and Michael Oliver weren't on the list. The kid that fills Oliver's shoes(or at least tries to) as Junior just doesn't fit the bill. He's ok but you know that old saying " Ain't nothing like the real thing". Basically, the plot is about Junior wrangling with adolescence as well as his feelings with a girl named Tiffany and her suitors. I have to admit it is funny seeing Junior dish out punishment to his rivals and anyone else that crosses him but aside from that the story seems a little flat. William Katt's not bad but he doesn't bring the same energy to the movie like John Ritter did. Gilbert on the other hand is one of the few saving graces of the movie as their's not much else to this.Bottomline, it's not a good movie as it doesn't live up to the first 2 at all.

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.

Let me guess, John Ritter was not available or did not want to do the part anymore, so someone searched for another actor to play Ben Healey and William Katt was as close as it got. Sorry, but without John Ritter, the film, albeit a television film, is simply NOT the same. Also, Michael Oliver was at the point of growing up (let's see, by calculations, he was about 11 or 12 when this installment was released) and the television biggies had to hire someone close to Master Oliver's character and presence). William Katt played Ben Healey, John Ritter WAS Ben Healey. Problem Child 3 does not have much in the way of substance.While I cannot sing the praises of the first two installments, Problem Child and Problem Child 2 will be another great way to remember Mr. Ritter's great art of comedic timing.I miss you, Mr. Ritter. You left this world too soon.

I though that Problem Child 3 was alright but not as good as the first two, it doesn't deserve a below zero score like you think it does but it could of been made better and what happened to Annie Young and her daughter Trixxie, did they breakup or what, the movie would've been better if they were in it and Jack Warden does a good job with his role as Big Ben but the characters who played Little Ben and Junior weren't that good. The lowest point of the whole movie is Gilbert Gottfried playing the nurse, I thought it was dumb.Only recommended if you're a Problem Child fan or if you love bad movies.2 out of 5 stars.
