“I Can’t Believe It Got Made Then, Much Less Now”: 33 Movies That Aged Worse Than Milk On A Hot Summer Day
“For the most part, the movie’s alright — not great but alright — but holy shit, the ending. How was that allowed? In the movie, there are a bunch of different love triangles. … Steve Carell’s children’s babysitter, who is 17, is in love with him, and his son, who is 13, is in love with her. Steve Carell doesn’t know she’s in love with him, so to get his attention, she takes nudes. This is already fucking weird for a movie, but here’s where it goes from fucking weird to illegal. At the end of the movie, when Steve gets back together with his wife in this standard rom-com format, the kid goes and talks to the babysitter. They have a parting moment, and she gives the kid her nude photos to look at. Keep in mind she’s 17 in the movie, and he’s 13. And Steve Carell and his wife are fine with it. I’m like wtf, how did Chris Hanson not appear and make them take a seat?”
