The Sitter | comment |
The Sitter is a 2011 comedy directed by David Gordon Green starring Jonah Hill as Noah, a university student who gets suspended and ends up back at home living with his mother. After a heated debate with his mom, he's coerced into babysitting his neighbor's three kids for the evening. As fate would have it, though, Noah receives an invitation to a party across town with the promise of sex, and decides to go with the Terrible Trio in tow. However, what should normally be a simple trek through New York City turns into a zany, madcap misadventure Noah wasn't expecting. | |

Karma Houdini | |
The Sitter / int_a70223 | comment |
Karma Houdini: Subverted. Noah does get caught by the police with the cocaine and diamonds stolen from his father's store, but they just take those and leave him behind without taking him into custody. Then played straight when he apparently simply gets away with wrecking the Pedulla's minivan. Same goes for Rodrigo after destroying TWO bathrooms. Marisa suffers very little personal payback for dragging Noah into a life-threatening situation, callously trying to abandon the kids to save her own skin and just being a general Jerkass. She does get dumped by Noah but even that is one of the most sensitive dumpings in movie history - Noah even gives her a lift home! | |

My Fist Forgives You | |
The Sitter / int_a7cd0d71 | comment |
My Fist Forgives You: How Noah patches things up with Tina. He admits that she's justified in hating him after he threw up on her grandma's ashes when drunk and offers to let her punch him in the face. She does just that and not only forgives him, but seems to consider Noah a friend now, to the point that she comes to save him from Karl at the end of the movie. | |

The Sitter / int_f3d5d15f | comment |
Creepy Child: Adopted child Rodrigo, who often threatens to hurt people and likes fireworks a 'little' too much, but he has a Freudian Excuse for all this, as he was already adopted by two other families who gave him up, causing him to feel unwanted. | |
