6/10
Sweet if predictable one-joke comedy
3 December 2017
Warning: Spoilers
"Look Who's Talking" was a box-office smash, mostly for the gimmick of the audience being able to hear the baby's inner thoughts. This gimmick, and some amusing fantasy sequences, help carry an otherwise ordinary and predictable story, though it does run out of steam. John Travolta gets to play a charming goofball, Kirstie Alley is in her prime, and Bruce Willis does some good voice work. It's strange: the film is pretty raunchy for "family entertainment", but it would have been funnier if it was even raunchier - which, of course, would cost it an R rating and a decrease in family tickets. **1/2 out of 4.
