Junior (1994)


Arnold Schwarzenegger pregnant?  Sure, Billy Crystal did it before in
RABBIT TEST, but the sight of Schwarz with a bulging belly is a casting
coup comparable to Dustin Hoffman in TOOTSIE.  What should be nothing
more than a one-joke premise actually gets better as it goes along.
Director Ivan Reitman (DAVE, TWINS) wisely keeps the farce to a minimum,
so the first hour moves slower than you might expect.  Don't expect too
many yuks from Danny DeVito, but you can't beat those early romantic
scenes between Emma and Arnie.  How's *that* for a collision of acting
styles?

Bring hankies, ladies.

Grade: B+
