sergelamarche I'm a bit partial with girls in comedy, I admit I like it. It is not top material hilariously because it is full length film and the story has to move along but some bits are definitely laugh out loud stuff. Some bits qualify more as drama than comedy though. Overall, it brings goody feelings of goodness all over speckeled with hilarious chunk. Good for the belly.

Chrysanthepop Michael McCuller's 'Baby Mama' promises laughter and that's what it delivers. The story centres around a 37 year old single career woman, Kate (Tina Fey) who's desperate to have a child. When she exhausts all option, she decides to seek the help of an agency lead by a 60-year old fertile mother (Sigourney Weaver). Through this agency, she meets Angie (Amy Poehler) who appears to be the answer to all her problems. However, not all is as it seems. Yes, the story is predictable and there are a few plot holes too. The execution is quite standard. Neither Dax Shepard nor Amy Poehler look like trailer trash. However, the humour is what keeps the viewers on their seat. Some of the lines had me laughing out loud. Fey and Poehler excellently work off one another. Their off-screen friendship seems to have worked for their benefit. Moreover, they are supported by a host of funny actors like Sigourney Weaver, Steve Martin and Holland Taylor. It may not have a solid story, 'Baby Mama' offers enough laugh triggers to perhaps lighten ones mood.

dutchguy-1 Don't get me wrong, I love Tina Fey and Amy Poehler and I think they're hilarious in 30 Rock and Parks & Recreation, but this has to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen! It's asinine and predictable, and it contains every cliché in the book about career women, pregnancy, fertility treatment, African American men, vegans, organic food, white trash, and what have you. There's not a shred of originality in the entire movie. Amy Poehler and Dax Shepard (who's great in Parenthood!) are utterly unconvincing as white trash. The actors are talented and they certainly tried, but they couldn't salvage the breathtakingly stupid screenplay. I want my hour and a half back! Luckily we got it through Netflix, so at least my pregnant wife and I didn't pay for two movie tickets to see it.

geniuskentyk-1 Pros: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are strong actresses and are able to keep the film interesting, even though the plot is predictable and too simple; the two have enough chemistry to keep the film from becoming boring. I liked that there were some shocking or unpredictable parts in the film, like when we find out that Angie was faking her pregnancy. However, there's another twist soon after we discover this truth. Also, the baby shower scene was the best part of the movie, because it has a lot of emotion stuck into it.Cons: The plot is too flat, too simple, and too predictable. The jokes weren't that funny – I laughed at maybe one or two parts ("Bitch, I don't know your life!"). What happens to Tina Fey's character right at the end of the movie was extremely predictable. This film is really lucky for having such lovable stars as Tina Fey and Amy Poehler. I'm 100% positive that if Tina Fey had written this movie, it would've been a lot better (she did a wonderful job writing "Mean Girls").
