Rent-a-Kid

About This Movie

Rent-a-Kid is this quirky 90s TV movie that drifts into the absurd with its premise. You've got Harry Habert, who decides to rent kids from an orphanage, which is already a wild concept. The Ward siblings, with their distinct personalities, add some real charm to the film. The pacing feels like a classic sitcom, with lots of light-hearted moments, but there are definitely themes around family and connection that come through. The performances aren't exactly Oscar-worthy, but they have that nostalgic vibe that makes them enjoyable. The practical effects are minimal but fit the budget and tone of the era. It's one of those films that’s just a product of its time, capturing the quirks of the mid-90s family comedy.
