Problem Child 2
He’s bad. She’s worse.
Directed by Brian Levant
Produced by Imagine Entertainment, Universal Pictures
A high-energy slapstick comedy about a mischievous child's sabotage of his father's romantic prospects, driven by crude humor and physical gags rather than warmth or depth.
Junior and his father, Ben, move from Cold River to Mortville. Junior becomes threatened by Ben's desire to date again and find a new mother for Junior, and sabotages each of his dates.
