There was a time when Elisabeth Shue was going to be 'the next big thing' and watching this film you truly believed it too.
The lovely Elisabeth holds the film together with her pure energy and 'like-ability factor'. As seventeen year old babysitter Christine - almost a baby herself - she manages to experience a series of mishaps, scrapes, run-ins and (yes) adventures in the course of one long evening, when she reluctantly agrees to pick up her runaway friend from the downtown bus depot (Brenda - hilarious bit part in this film - who adds some really funny moments whilst stranded at the depot ?! ).
The children who tag along for the ride are lovely out-of-town naive characters who each contribute something to the ... Read More:

I'm actually reviewing this R1 American DVD, which appears to have a longer running time than the R2 UK one(maybe the BBFC cut some portions of dialogue and scenes to make it a more acceptable 12 rated film?). And also, this one it seems is in it's original aspect ratio of 1.85:1.
Anyway, this is a fun adventure film that is quite entertaining to watch. What starts as a typical babysitting job to look after the Andersons' daughter(Sara) and teen son(Brad, who quite fancies Chris) turns into something else when Chris is called by her friend Brenda who's run away from home and wants Chris to pick her up so she can stay with her.
Of course, things don't run smoothly and the group, stuck with the teen boy's friend(Daryl) ... Read More:

My sister nearly disowned me when I bought this - she thinks I'm a right saddo. I love this film. It is has great one-liners, hilarious adventures, a twisting and entertaining storyline and also includes a romantic element. It also has the added bonus of all that fab yet awful 1980's fashion which reminds me of the good old days.
If you like films like 'Home Alone' and 'Mannequin' then you'll probably like this. I love it (but then again, I am a saddo...).

Adventures In Babysitting (for some reason re-titled A Night On The Town for its release around Europe) is an enduringly silly comedy directed by Chris Columbus before he went on to direct the blockbuster Home Alone (1990).
The delightful Elizabeth Shue puts in an engaging performance as likeable student Chris Parker who after being stood up one night by her slimy, two-timing lover, finds herself babysitting for her parents friends, the Andersons whilst they attend a business function deep in the heart of the city. Chris is initially meant to be babysitting Sara Anderson (Maia Brewton) but Sara's older brother Brad (Keith Coogan) who is totally besotted with Chris decides to invite his best friend Daryl (Anthony Rapp) over to pursue ...

i love this film and yes it does deserve the 5 stars!!! i tried to find this for ages but its not really a kids film though! unless some people have been watching the network tv versions! these are really bad as they have been edited for daytime tv and have replaced all the swearing and cut out the bad gang scenes so these versions have been killed as they are not patched very well! does anyone remember when this was called a night on the town? great film, id buy if dint already have! this is the full uncut version!!!
