Baby Alone (2002)

Genre (s) (a bizarre mix): very light Rom-Com, Comedy, Violence (everything you want in a drama)

I really liked this film. It has a mixture of things you wouldn't really put in such a film. I mean the things they add seem to be a bit extreme for something that can basically be called a comedy. But it balances out really well.

I first wanted to see it for no real reason. I was going through the selection of films I want to add to bookmark so I can watch later on and then because I had already seen the film Baby and Me I figured I'd watch this one. I like seeing babies in films so I figured this would be fun.

Well I had a few surprises in store. There's a lot of violence, with knifing, gang beatings and killings, while on the other side there's a really light romance and tons of comedy to go around. So it took me a bit of time to just go with the flow because there was a lot I was expecting in the script but I really ended up liking even if I never expected them together. It was like City of Violence meets Baby and Me.

I found the drama to ultimately be worthwhile. It had a lot of action---I know another shocker. The Tae Kwon Do was very impressive and what makes it even more so, is the fact the guys seem a bit overweight and not really in shape to be doing the sort of action packed fighting they were doing. But they were just amazing.

As for the baby. She is a doll. I mean that baby is absolutely beautiful and I loved seeing her sleeping with the guys---so cute.

The female, and really the main female---if you can call her that was very cute. And unlike the worthless girl in Baby and Me, this girl actually did something. Like fight. She was just awesome. She really got into it and even though she was barely there, you didn't forget her presence----nor did she take away from the story.

Overall a really fun film for a leisure time. It's something that will make your smirk, maybe giggle and just relax too. It's not too dark, but dark enough to wonder. It's definitely light enough but too dark for the kids. And overall just a nice fun time. I definitely recommend this for anyone who wants a giggle and likes nice fight scenes. You just have to wait towards the end to get the nice bits.
