Adventures in Babysitting (2016 TV Movie)
4/10
missing Thor
4 February 2019
Jenny Parker is an obsessive organized overachiever who babysits on the side. Irresponsible Lola Perez failed to get into art college. They are both up for an internship for a famous photographer. They accidentally pick up each other's phone. Lola steals Jenny's babysitting job. It goes badly and one of Lola's kids sneak away to the city. Both girls and their gaggle of kids head off on their adventures in babysitting.

I find both Jenny and Lola annoying in the beginning. They are the bickering twins and I have no rooting interest. It's a little while until I find any redeeming quality about them. The little kids are alright and I really like a couple of them. By the police station, I can scrape up some rooting interest against the two bumbling wet bandits. It does fade over time. There are quite a few differences with the original but the most disappointing has to be missing the Thor helmet. With the surging interest in superhero, one would expect a return engagement of the costume. They seem to have replace it with roller derby girl. I like roller derby girl but it's a missed opportunity.
