Movie review - "The Sitter" (2012) **

Modern day retread of Adventures in Baby Sitting with Jonah Hill in the lead instead and a lot more raunch. There are some funny bits, such as Sam Rockwell's coked up villain and lair which is like a gaol gym re-created, but it lacks charm and surprise. It also loses points for having Hill saved at the end not by any special skills on his part but by some black friends he's made through his ability to speak jive (I think that's what happened). Also the problems of the traumatised kids he's looking after, quite serious ones, are dealt with very easily.
