	Author	Review
United States	Roger Ebert rogerebert.com	"A warm and lovable comedy (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Vincent Canby The New York Times	"Cute is the operative word for the movie, which stars some good actors doing material that is not super"	NEU
United States	Variety	"This ill-conceived comedy about an infant whose thoughts are given voice by actor Bruce Willis palpitates with desperation."	NEG
United States	Roger Piantadosi The Washington Post	"Via Heckerling's keen senses of visual comedy, musical humor (...) rimshot-sharp editing and pace -- it works."	POS
United Kingdom	Mark Cooper Empire	"A novel concept but one which fails to rise above the standards of Alley's 'Cheers' (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	NEU
United States	Jonathan Rosenbaum Chicago Reader	"Heckerling still has some of the sensitivity she showed in handling actors in 'Fast Times at Ridgemont High'"	POS
