Mollie Jensen (KirstieAlley) is an accountant living in New York City. She's been having an affair for quite some time with a wealthy client, Albert, who continuously makes excuses for why he hasn't left his wife yet. Mollie ends up pregnant, and Albert promises to support both her and the baby.
But then, she finds Albert with another woman. The shock sends her into labor, and she is forced to take a cab driven by James Ubriacco (JohnTravolta) to the hospital. James is a nice guy, sticking around and providing support all through the birth. A few days after, he shows up at her apartment to return her purse, which she had left in the cab. He immediately hits it off with Mollie's son Mikey (voiced by BruceWillis). Eventually, a relationship develops between the two adults, with baby Mikey commenting on it all the way.
Let's face it, the real appeal is not in the romantic comedy plot line, but the fact that this time, we get the baby's POV on the matter. For the most part, it's ActuallyPrettyFunny.
Followed by two sequels, with diminishing returns. Also spawned a short-lived SpiritualSuccessor sitcom, ''Baby Talk'', which ran for two seasons from 1991-1992. While the sitcom was a different continuity and none of the film's characters appear, the characters were created by Amy Heckerling, who wrote and directed the first film.
