Weird how people react to this movie and apple pie

When reading the comments I saw lots of pro's and lots of contras. But the comments are quite strong so it is worth reading them carefully.Then again, what does it mean, some people like apple pies, some don't.I watched this movie on TV, there was nothing better to watch, and at first I thought this is crazy I have ten 4-starred videos that I can watch tonight, but I stayed on.It's just a bit of fun. I also wanted to see the combination Schwarzenegger - Thompson, which really works. Add De Vito and you're in for 3/4ths of an apple pie. Add Reitman and you have a complete apple pie. The cream on top is not provided, mainly because the antagonist, the evil guy at the University does not work. I don't think it's worth a rental, certainly not a buy, but better than Prozac.

Love or Hate

For me this is one of those movies you will either love or hate, there is no in between. Having said that I loved it, but do not rate it up there with good movies, because even though I loved it, it is not really that good. I do think however that it is better than the current 4.4 rating.Arnie and Danny Devito are quite funny together, but some of Arnie's acting can be hit and miss. I am by the way a big fan of Arnies, just being honest.The casting is probably the best thing about Junior. It's hard to imagine any other macho actor of Arnies ilk pulling this off. As in Twins and Kindergarten Cop, Arnie plays against his macho image, getting both laughs and smiles by showing us his non macho side.Add Danny Devito and Emma Thompson, actors I hold in high regard and you have to at least give this a go.It gave me a few laughs and a smile, but I have no wish to watch it twice.
