'Honey, I Blew Up The Kid' is the sequel to 'Honey, I Shrunk the Kids'. This time, the professor builds a machine that makes objects larger, and you can see the direction that this film is going in.
I found this film to be more geared to adults. The previous film was all about the children, but this film is about the parents and their baby. It's also not a funny film, but it tries to be funny. The characters also seem far removed from the previous film; I was expecting to see the same characters that I enjoyed watching in the original.
The film takes on the approach of the baby as Godzilla or King Kong. I suppose that this had to be a baby because the older children are more reasonable and know what they are doing, but a baby cannot comprehend on this level. I think this is the fault of the whole film. It's really not a film that children are going to want to see. (Children don't like babies because it is a big responsibility, with no pun intended.) The characters just are not believable or particularly engaging, and the story lacks substance. I would not recommend it because I think it fails to captivate a majority of the audience and the intended audience.
