Baby Geniuses 2: Superbabies is the sequel to Baby Geniuses starring Kathleen Turner and Christopher Lloyd, whose characters secretly worked to crack the code to “baby talk,” a highly sophisticated language that allows babies to communicate their innate knowledge of the secrets of the universe. In Baby Geniuses 2: Superbabies, the adventure continues with a new generation of talking toddlers. This time, the baby geniuses find themselves at the center of a nefarious scheme led by powerful media mogul Bill Biscane (Jon Voight). Joining the babies in their battle against evil is a legendary baby named Kahuna (Leo, Myles and Gerry Fitzgerald). Part ultra-cool spy, part superhero, Kahuna joins babies Archie (Michael & Max Iles), Finkleman (Jordan & Jared Scheideman), Alex (Joshua & Maxwell Lockhart) and Rosita (Keana & Maia Bastidas) in a race against time to stop the villainous Biscane from using his state-of-the-art satellite system to control the minds of the world’s population. -- © Sony Pictures Entertainment [More]

Apart from Jon Voight, slumming and turning in a rather droll, if lonely, performance as the German-accented villain, the movie amounts to cynical, cutesy claptrap.

[It's] the sort of intellectually offensive children’s movie one would make if one knew nothing about children.

Clark’s CGI-induced rugrat romp is about as inspiring in its hilarity as a diaper rash. Exceedingly nonsensical and…excuse the intended pun—infantile

Like dadaist art, Baby Geniuses challenge the artist-audience contract: We *hear* the babies talking, but we clearly *see* that they aren't.

To call this immeasurably terrible movie ‘stupid and nonsensical’ would be an insult to stupid and nonsensical movies.

It is offensive on so many levels. First, let’s just call SuperBabies what it is: child abuse.

No worry about brainwashing kids through this movie, though. They probably won't be that entertained.

Is there really a market of children out there that will find this funny or entertaining?

Best parental advice: if you had to take the kids to Garfield, you’ve already suffered enough this summer.

So many things about this movie are so, so wrong that it’s almost right.

director Bob Clark and screenwriter Gregory Poppen don't shoehorn in nearly as much innuendo or smarminess this time around; they're equally stingy with charm and imagination.

This is a film so thunderingly unfunny that it makes 'White Chicks' look like 'Blazing Saddles.'

What uncaring parent would waste their children's time taking them to see this nonsense? ... And what incriminating photos do the producers have of Jon Voight?
