Was the Movie Financially Unsuccessful?

Despite the viewers enjoyed watching the baby stroll through the streets of Chicago avoiding the kidnappers hilariously, it was unable to do well commercially. The movie had a budget of $48 million but after its release, it was able to gross only over $30 million. The movie was a commercial failure. Rotten Tomatoes scored the movie with only a 20% rating and the critics have also reviewed it poorly with 3.89 as an average rating.

Their reason for such poor reviews was simple. They said it was too risky as it contained real streets and real equipment which could have harmed the child actors. Though the final picture was funny, all the stunts performed were not funny according to the critics. The movie was unable to grow even when Verne Troyer performed most of the dangerous stunts. He was an American actor who had a genetic disorder called Cartilage-Hair Hypoplasia. This resulted in him standing at a height of only 2 feet and 8 inches (81cm) tall.
