To little information about Regions
Added 9/11/2009
The movie would not work in my DVD player as it was the wrong Region. If I would have known that DVD players were specific to Regions I could have saved $25 dollars. Will not make the same mistake next time.

Family FUN
Added 12/20/2008
This is a fun for the whole family movie. Everyone from grandma to tikes should find this one entertaining. Lots of laughs, some ohs, some ahs but a sweet ride. If only it were on DVD.

Better second time around.
Added 9/24/2006
The first time I saw Rent-A-Kid 5 or 6 years ago I wasn't impressed, probably because I expected edgier humor from Leslie Nielsen (Forbidden Planet, Poseidon Adventure) and Christopher Lloyd (Who Framed Roger Rabbit).
When I watched it again last week, I enjoyed the film much more than I remembered, though Lloyd pretty much plays it straight, and the humor is all suitable for the whole family. Nielsen is very funny in a different way than usual for him, as an absent minded businessman, always thinking of making a profit (he comes up with the title idea), seeming oblivious of the consequences. Along with the humor the story gradually becomes more of a heartwarming drama, so I recommend this film for families to watch together - get some laughs if nothing else.
