Baby Boom (1987) | Movie Reaction | First Time Watching | You Can Have It All!

[@robertjewell9727]

I was working on a film in Bristol, Vermont and the location manager came up to me and said, "Hey, you wanna go check a couple of towns.I got a call to take some pictures and send them to this producer. They just want downtown shots." So we went on a day off. It turned out to be Baby Boom. It was a fun scenic drive.

[@boomieboo]

Can't believe you reacted to this movie. Loved and recommended to a few reactors and it was like pissin in the wind because I knew no one would ever react to it. There are so many good movies that never get reactions because they're just not big enough for whatever reason. So glad you watched the gem. Keep up the great work!

[@MrKINSM]

Probably tops out at less than 10K views, not enough to make big "youtube" bucks on. That's why these selections have to be the ones patreons specifically pay for.

[@boomieboo]

​@@MrKINSM Yeah, unfortunate algorithm considerations mean tons of great movies fall through the cracks. I want them to react to The Elephant Man, Mask (with Eric Stoltz and Cher, not Jim Carrey), The Wiz, Yellow Submarine, Spinal Tap, and so many others but most likely won't happen.

[@im-gi2pg]

I request this movie a lot!!!! Great minds think alike!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@kathyk5319]

RIP Sam Shepard.

[@JamesSpenser-j5s]

and Harold Ramis.

My mom worked at a video rental store part time in the 80s, and this is one of those tapes she brought home one night for our family to watch. As a young boy, I wasn't interested, but I remember enjoying this. I enjoyed your reaction, and seeing the movie again (in part) was nostalgic.

[@lisainthecold4287]

I absolutely love this movie and watched it many times growing up when it was on TV! Love that you're reacting to it, no one does. The 80s were something! Elizabeth is adorable and I love how she seemed like a seasoned actor, lol. Diane Keaton is perfect in this role.

[@MrBoyYankee]

This, Three men and a baby, Raising Arizona, & Look who's talking was the baby boom of baby movies.

[@LisaRowe2525]

the look who's talking movies are so good!

[@deedeestardust2535]

And Mr. Mom with Michael Keaton

[@theTemplar08]

Doesn’t matter if it’s baby, boom or pretty in pink, James Spader always has to play the bad guy. Oh, I forgot avengers age of Ultron.

[@jenniferyorgan4215]

He plays a good guy in Stargate 😊

[@amberburris5674]

This is one of my FAVORITE movies of all time for some unknown reason lol..... I am so happy yall are watching it :) :) :)

[@Packard63]

Surprised how much i enjoyed this movie as well as seeing Mrs Movies take a shine to the little girls performance.

[@noneofyourbz4007]

I like Sam Shepard in most anything he's in and felt he was a good casting choice. Would suggest The Right Stuff where he plays legendary Chuck Yeager for y'all to react to.

[@Huntress59]

Loved Sam Shepard in this movie . Love The Right Stuff too.

[@Kylopod]

I remember my mom getting this film from the video store. At the beginning of the video was a preview of the film “Overboard” with Goldie Hawn, and to my 12-year-old self that looked a lot more interesting than “Baby Boom.” Not long later, we rented “Overboard” (which had the preview to “Baby Boom” at the beginning), and I realized afterward that “Baby Boom” was the better of the two films. I still feel that way.

[@prescottlange]

Baby Boom 2: Armageddon Written by Mrs. Movies

[@TheHeatherjane]

I always rented this movie at the video store, it was and still is a favorite!

[@johnmaynardable]

The actor playing the veterinarian is Sam Shepard. He had a very nice acting career, but he started out as a playwright. He was a very respected playwright in the 70's and 80's. I was in a production of The Curse of the Starving Class. He was a very good writer and actor.

[@LisaRowe2525]

for anyone that doesn't know this movie is the story (with some liberties of course) of how the gerber baby food company started. the drawing JC makes for 'country baby' is the OG gerber baby! and logo.

[@prescottlange]

Having to pay nannies to raise your children is the definition of NOT "having it all".

[@tacticanuclearninja9112]

Haven’t seen this since I was a boy what nostalgia. Awesome pick!! 😊

[@oldhollywoodfan8009]

I LOVE this movie and watch it at least once a year. Great performances with a beautiful happy ending. And the opening narrator sounds exactly like actress Candice Bergen.😃

[@Madbandit77]

It's actually TV journalist Linda Ellerbee.

[@victoriadavislg]

I was a nanny for a family of two (3 and 5) when I interviewed it was a long process and the first week being there the mom was there watching over working at home so she could see how I fit with the kids and I needed a police background check. Just living a baby with someone you just met no way! Lol

[@claytonbishop4021]

This film struggles to impart its feminist ideals, but Diane Keaton's winsome leading work helps keep things breezily entertaining. Becoming her own CEO does kick ass!

[@craig8357]

Aww one of my favourite movies from the 80s😊

[@MrKINSM]

Sam Shepard, the actor you say doesn't look country enough is most famous for playing "country" characters.

[@Divamarja_CA]

Such an interesting person! Considered one of the finest playwrights of his generation. How he slipped into action, I do not know, but I love his “man of few words” countenance and sexy vibe.

[@WilAdams]

This film always seemed like the reverse of the Barbara Stanwyck 1945 classic Christmas in Connecticut. I watch that film every Christmas (avoid the Arnold directed remake.

[@adventuresinlaurenland]

I love Cosmic Crisp 😂 but I also just love apples, even Jonathans ❤

[@im-gi2pg]

I think “three men and a baby”came out around the same time. The vet office scene is my favorite!!!😂😂😂 Remember, she already had a zucchini product and was experimenting with recipes. She’ll buy more crops or buy the apples from farmers, and branch out. She researches and food is her business. I hope your kiddo is ok. She’s beautiful and adorable! I was picturing her falling alone into a chest freezer looking for that treat! I’m sure you had it all under control!😅

[@SnappingTurtle801]

I like this movie, and it was one of mom's favorite. I can remember the first time we watched it together. This was bittersweet for me. Also, I like that you guys don't always follow the beaten path of movie reactors. There are so many hidden gems out there that most don't want to react to. Anyway, glad y'all enjoyed it.

[@madelinealicea2044]

This woman lived in a concrete jungle. She knew nothing about babies and country living.

[@rebo2610]

Yes! I love this movie!

[@huffwayno]

I love this movie. So underrated..

[@o.b.7217]

James Spader has such a babyface in this one. He looks even younger here than in "Pretty in Pink", which was a year earlier.

[@jenniferfoster1692]

He said he was in awe of Diane Keaton while working with her here. He said he'd be doing a scene & just thinking in his head how great her acting was, as he was watching it happen, lol. I bet younger actors working with him now are doing the same thing! He did a great job in Pretty in Pink, the perfect 'bad guy'.

[@laurakali6522]

Three Men and a Baby and Working Girl are two great ones as well.

[@YouMeTheMovies]

We have a reaction to Working Girl.

[@ASKMEABOUTMYGARDEN]

​@@YouMeTheMoviesPlease react to The Inlaws 2003 version it has Michael Douglas, Ryan Reynolds, and Albert Brooks..I guarantee you will laugh kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3Ooi2epe8Z2adksi=USwngo1tIkheFjzc

[@Hiraghm]

As a sexist male chauvinist pig, I have to say that "Working Girl" is one of my favorite movies, and Tess McGill is my hero.

[@KingHenryVR4]

I seen this movie a while back one night on Turner Classic when they were showing a block of 1980s yuppie films.

[@johnnyskinwalker4095]

Well if the vet's teeth were weird, then it was the perfect casting for a country doc.

[@Hiraghm]

while she's ranting, "dissing" a vet... Vet med students who flunk out of Iowa State's vet med school go on to the U. of Iowa to become doctors... just saying...

[@Hiraghm]

I love those moments when you two mommy and daddy...

[@thebigloc1]

I adore this film and bought it cheap on DVD a few years back. I love listening to the soundtrack on KZbin during work.

[@Trilaan]

I now realize that a scene I thought for the longest time was in this movie was actually in Look Who's Talking.

[@jassellb]

Sam Shepard looked liek a city doctor?!!? lol

[@dow311]

Eve (Victoria Jackson) and Charlotte (Mary Gross) both actresses were on SNL, Saturday Night Live, both very funny comedians.

[@loribain9933]

Mrs. Movies is so sweet

[@Hiraghm]

she's a mommy.

[@barowt]

Love this movie! Glad y'all reacted to it.

[@lisannebaumholz5028]

I totally understand that Americans mistake Labor Day as a day to celebrate women's experience of giving birth to babies.😅 But up here in Canada, where we celebrate Labour Day to honour workers, women actually have access to free healthcare during their pregnancies and hopefully safe deliveries. Wish you folks were that fortunate! 🇨🇦 😊 But seriously, this is a great Diane Keaton film (aside from "Annie Hall") and it's also great to see the late playwright Sam Shepard acting in a funny film. He was in so many films (but rarely in a starring role) including "Paris, Texas" and "Fool for Love" (based on his plays), "Thunderheart", "Crimes of the Heart*, "August, Osage County", "The Right Stuff" and many more. A great American playwright and understated/unappreciated actor

[@dow311]

I worked in NY in the 80’s, it was terrible. I did wear sneakers back and forth to work. No air conditioning on the subways. Yep I miss those days.

[@ChefPatrickChase]

When I was driving OTR I was around all of these “full-service-petri-dishes” (truckstops ) i developed quite an immune system and I was hardly ever sick .

I never skip this movie when it come up. I love it! It’s a good one to fall asleep too.

[@marksawicki3595]

Gala is my fave. Don't like red apples, and green can sometimes be too sweet. I never saw this movie before, so is pretty good and I thank you for bringing it to my attention. Will I ever watch it again? No, just like all the other baby movies. And please, for the love of god, do not watch Baby Geniuses! Me and my date walked out of the movie and got her money back after a half an hour of that drivel.

[@cabmonk]

I don't even remember this movie being called baby boom lol. Another Mandela effect haha. 😂

[@Fast_Eddy_Magic]

You kids are funny. Never had sex in a fridge! 😂

[@loribain9933]

So excited to see Mrs. Movies thoughts and reactions to this.

[@tgosselin2528]

17:46 OK 🤔 that's the 2nd mention this week alone! I guess I'll repeat my comment from the "JAWS: The Revenge" upload: "I guess that means it's time to try for BABY #3 👶🏻♂️"

[@Hiraghm]

"put butter on it instead of sauce next time" OMG... now you make miss my mom... :cries inside:

[@Me-wk3ix]

Your little girl is so adorable!

[@im-gi2pg]

I worked at a restaurant in coconut grove, Florida (Miami) with a 21 year old beautiful blonde young woman who dated a Turkish university student. She became pregnant and his parents would have freaked out so he dumped her and she gave the baby (born on Labor Day aprox 1981, age 43 now) up for adoption - more accurately, she sold the baby girl for $4000 plus expenses to a yuppie couple from NYC. She felt she was too young and couldn’t handle it financially. I think about that sweet baby on Labor Day. I felt it was a huge mistake but the mommy was not a person who changed her mind (strong Aries). I had two kids by age 21. I wonder if the girl has ever met either of her biological parents yet? I hope her adoptive birth parents loved her.💕

I remember seeing this as a kid/teen and thinking it was really cute, but now as an adult, I'm questioning so many of her choices! Why did she buy a farm with no experience or help managing it, without at least seeing that it was in disrepair??? Still a cute movie and cute baby, though, haha.

[@meyerhave]

"You, Me, & The Movies: 'Diane Keaton in an unexpected comedy.' " What?!? F.Y.I.: Diane Keaton has ONLY, as it happens to factually be, been appearing in "an unexpected comedy" - amongst and alongside dramatic roles throughout her cinematic career - since, at the least, "Play It Again, Sam"(1972), "Annie Hall" (1977), and right up until she took on her starring role in "Baby Boom" (1987), a NOT so "unexpected comedy" choice in her film career choices.

[@YouMeTheMovies]

That's literally the tagline on the poster and bluray case.

[@meyerhave]

​@@YouMeTheMovies : "Caveat Emptor". I do so enjoy watching the two of you reacting ("You" - the "Mom" - are an absolute, hubba-hubba, doll; continue doing right by her "Me", a.k.a."Dad"!) via KZbin. I'd prefer you both more digging into the true cinematic classics going back over the previous decades, and back to early sound at the beginning of the 1930's. (For instance, sampling / a "KZbin Reaction" to, the first handful of the Marx Brothers on film. "GONE WITH THE WIND" - 1939, and in true "color".) How about Humphrey Bogart, William Holden and Audrey Hepburn (in glorious B&W) in Billy Wilder's masterful light comedy "SABRINA" (1954)? Talk about an "unexpected" comedic role, and brilliantly performed by "Bogie". (Humphrey DeForest Bogart: December 25, 1899 - January 14, 1957)

[@Hiraghm]

"You can have it all; you just have to pay someone to do it all" excuse me, it's really not the place for someone like me to point it out to you, but paying someone to love your child is not the same as loving your child.

[@Lugen101]

They meant money will be needed in order to do it all. Such as having a kid in daycare while working or paying for a nanny or full time house keeper. They obviously didn’t mean pay to have someone else be the parent for the kid.
