Somehow, the first "Baby Geniuses" was successful enough to create a long-running franchise starting with this sequel. It also shows proof that stars Jon Voight and Scott Baio will make any kind of movie for a fat paycheck. This movie got worse reviews and box office than the original film. This movie was returning director Bob Clark's final film before his death in 2007. Leonard Maltin Movie Guide Review:
Superbabies: Baby Geniuses 2 (2004) - BOMB out of 4 stars
"Sequel to BABY GENIUSES casts Voight as a media mogul out to brainwash children via a tot-aimed TV network. He wants to use them to take over the world, but a band of tykes catches on and sets out to stop him. Gimmick has kids speaking to each other, thanks to creepy computer-generated lip movement. Crude humor makes this not just bad but insulting. Followed by a direct-to-DVD sequel. Super 35."

Hilariously awful.
Fun fact. The director of the new Reagan movie directed 3 of the later sequels all still starring Jon Voight.

From the director of A Christmas Story and starring the lead of Midnight Cowboy. Bob Clark's follow up to A Christmas Story was Rhinestone. I don't think that helped his career much.

He should have just done nothing but Christmas movies. Black Christmas and A Christmas Story is the best one two punch this side of Shane Black.
