Baby On Board

nice movie

IT IS A BAD COMEDY WITH 1 OR 2 LAUGHS AND VERY VULGAR. THE ONLY POINT IS BECAUSE THE QUALITY OF THE BLU-RAY VERSION IS REALLY GOOD.

I have given this film to every acquaintance that was expecting their first born. After watching it, it takes the edge of the new responsibilities. Outrageously funny!

GOOD

The movie arrived in a very timely fashion. The quality of the movie was good until the middle of the movie. In certain parts of the movie it stopped and perhaps up to a minute later it began again.

"Baby on Board" stars Heather Graham and Jerry O'Connell as Angela and Curtis, who have a loving relationship, a comfortable home, and successful careers. When Angela announces she's pregnant, however, their lives turn into a nine-month comedy of errors in which each suspects the other of cheating. Now, they must contend with both emotional and hormonal mood swings, as well as the unanticipated drama caused by their friends Danny (John Corbett) and Sylvie (Katie Finneran), who suddenly find their own marriage in peril. Through all this, Angela worries that her job is in jeopardy as she strives to please her demanding boss (Lara Flynn Boyle). Watching a movie like "Baby On Board," one really appreciates star power. Though the performers are all good and sometimes land the gags with good timing, it's tough to be engaged fully. O'Connell has the ability to play both the goofy fall guy and the romantic lead, yet here he's somewhere in the middle. Boyle scores points as the boss from hell, as she manages to elicit sympathy for what could have been a one-note performance. The Blu-ray edition is pretty bare bones, with only the bonus basics -- director commentary, trailer, and photo gallery.

Baby on Board is a bit strange to say the least.One moment the jokes are innocent, clean, and almost adorable. The next minute the style of humor switches completely into a much dirtier and downright *disgusting* direction.I assume this was done because the writers wanted to make this film a comedy for both men and women alike. The problem is, men and women will be spending much of their time either bored or disgusted (and probably confused).I don't know what else to say about it. I was laughing quite hard on a few occasions, but other times I couldn't believe the words the characters were saying to each other (and I don't mean cute and innocent little swear words either).The story involving a pregnant woman going through her hectic career without her boss knowing she's actually pregnant was the only time my interest went up for a short period.Don't expect Baby on Board to be a comedy that pertains to your sense of humor because frankly, a movie like this isn't able to connect to *anyones* sense of humor.

(Note: It's hard to imagine that I could spoil this movie for anyone, but the list below does contain "spoilers")BABY ON BOARD is the kind of unromantic noncomedy that is so bad that you will be tempted to press the pause button multiple times to wonder aloud to your partner, your cat, or (if viewing alone) your nearest houseplant:1) After that dopey summation, why is everyone in the movie treating Jerry O'Connell like a really smart lawyer?2) Is that really Lara Flynn Boyle?3) Did any of these actors actually read the script?4) Would any pregnant woman really stop strangers in the street to tell them she's not pregnant (when they don't care, and she knows she really is)?5) Wouldn't it be great to see Heather Graham in a decent movie?6) Isn't there a limit to the number lame/offensive/fart jokes you can put in a single movie?7) If Jerry O'Connell really were a really smart lawyer, why, when wrongly accused of adultery, wouldn't he simply tell his wife she's wrong?8)) Why would Heather Graham, when accused of carrying another man's baby, not simply tell her dim bulb/really smart lawyer husband he's wrong?9) Can anyone really get away with going to work for nine months while keeping her pregnancy a secret?10) I try not to write negative reviews, but shouldn't I warn people about this one?Of course, some movies are so bad that you can enjoy them for their sheer awfulness. I can't even offer you that consolation about BABY ON BOARD.

Der Film ist nicht schlecht, allerdings sind manche Szenen und Kommentare einfach an der Grenze der Perversität und nicht mehr wirklich komisch. Man muss es ja nicht übertreiben - manchmal ist weniger einfach mehr!

I only buy movies I really enjoy. Like this one. Thank You.

Kein Wunder, dass diese DVD keine richtig gute Bewertung hat. Dieser Film ist absolut dumm und überflüssig.Eine Frau ist schwanger, glaubt das ihr Mann fremd geht, ihr Mann glaubt das das Baby nicht von ihm ist = EhekriseKeiner redet mehr mit dem anderen. Es geht viel um Mißverständnisse, Kommunikationsdefizite, usw. aber dies wurde so schlecht und billig in Szene gesetzt, dass der ganze Film einfach überflüssig und billig istSchade - aus der Story hätte man doch was machen können0 Sterne
