Summary: Every wife, woman and teenage girl should see this!
Review: This comedy is hilarious because it's so true--the lines between Samuel and Rebecca are straight John Gray! But the best line, the fall-on-the-floor-laughing line that made this so memorable, was when Rebecca informs Samuel that she knows she's pregnant because she's missed her period. His reply--"And there's no way you could have had it and just not noticed?"

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: Nine Months-The cutiest warm feeling movie ever!
Review: This is a wonderful movie that shows both sides of having a baby! . Sameul and Rebecca are very happy together until he finds out that she having a kid. This movie is wonderful for males and females and I recommed this movie to anyone. An excellent movie with an excellent cast. Julianne Moore is teriffic and should have got an Oscar. The best movie I have ever seen-----they should make a sequel.

Summary: Not bad, but they should have READ the book
Review: This movie does have its fun parts, and it is my favorite Julianne Moore film. Unfortunately, it contains a boatload of errors, and I find myself wondering if the English script was worked up by a cat-hater whose only knowledge of pregnancy came from old episodes of the Smurfs. There they are, toting copies of the venerable "What to Expect When You're Expecting," yet it's very clear that no one, especially the writers, has read the book. On pages 64 and 313, for instance, the book clearly states that active toxiplasmosis infections during pregnancy are rare, and serious defects as a result of the unlikely event of an active infection are even more rare.

Also, the cat is 16 years old, and Sam & Rebecca have been together 5 years, so she's likely built up antibodies to it. Truth be to,d, she'd be at more risk from playing with potted plants than she would be from Sam's cat.

Her other assertions about cats are also way off the mark. Anyone who has ever had any pet and a baby at the same time knows it's common sense not to leave a baby alone with a pet. Cats and dogs could both squish a baby, and I certainly wouldn't want either licking my dishes.

Also, Rebecca must have missed a major chunk of the book when she cut off Sam just before they were about to get it on. If she had any doubts, a good gynecologist could show her a diagram of the female reproductive system. "Beck, there's a little somethin' there...it's called a cervix. And if you're still afraid the baby's gonna get a peep show, keep in mind that you have a mucous plug, and nothing short of a hoover or labor (preterm or term) could dislodge that puppy."

All righty, then, now that I've gotten that beef off of my chest, I did like it overall. 3 stars for story, 1 star for ignorance of the facts in spite of having so many darn enlightening props, and 5 stars for the scen where Marty and Sam beat up Arnie, which averages out to 3 stars. Watch it, but take their pregnancy "facts" with a very large grain of salt.

Rating: 5 stars

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hugh Grant Superb! Tom Arnold Surprises All!
Review: This movie made me a big fan of Hugh Grant. His role as the expectant father in this Chris Columbus comedy is brilliant. He is able to combine good wit with some good physical comedy.

The person who surprises me is Tom Arnold. This movie made me a Tom Arnold fan. Tom Arnold plays Marty, a used car salesman and experienced father who becomes a mentor to Samuel (Hugh Grant). Tom Arnold really showed a lot as an actor in this movie. One of the best scenes is when Marty and Samuel go into a toy store. In the Toy Store is "Arnie" (an obnoxious version of Barney the dinosuar). Although the scene is predictable on what Marty will do to Arnie, the scene is legendary and will have you laughing.

Plus picture Tom Arnold in the delivery room with a video camera....you can only imagine!

Get this movie and play it on your VCR!

Summary: Oh Baby!!
Review: This review refers to the DVD edition(20th Cent Fox) of "Nine Months"......

Looking for a goodtime but don't want to leave your couch. Here's the answer for you.."Nine Months". Directed by Chris Columbus(Harry Potter/Home Alone) starring Hugh Grant, Julianne Moore,Robin Williams, Tom Arnold, Joan Cusak and Jeff Goldblum. These are names that really know how to entertain and will have you laughing out loud the entire length of the film."Nine Months" is a hysterical look at the fears, joys and anticipation of becoming a parent and the waiting period that goes along with it.

Samuel and Rebecca have a relationship to be envied. Samuel is a successful child psychiatrist, the beautiful Rebecca is a graceful dance instructor,they have a cool apartment and car and five years of UNwedded bliss...don't fix it if it ain't broken...right? Well they are in for a big change in their lives. When Rebecca utters those wonderful words..."Samuel...I'm pregnant", the very cool and level headed Samuel practically kills them when he runs the car off the road. And so the fun begins. He discovers he has some growing up to do and it's easier said then done.

Included in the fun are their new "friends", Marty and Gail Dwyer a very pushy but well meaning couple played by Tom Arnold and Joan Cusak. They are old pros at the pregnancy game, as they are working on their fourth. Arnold's one liners are non stop and delivered with his usual brand of boisterious humor, and you never knew how funny delivering a baby could be until you have seen Cusak's brillantly comical turn in the labor room. Jeff Goldblum, is Samuel's single friend, his link to his youth,and turns in a great performance.Then, of course there's the obstetrician. Who else can make having a baby such a riotious romp other than Robin Williams. He's just absolutely zany as the Russian Dr. Kosevitch, about to atttempt his first delivery, human delivery that is!

So prepare to laugh out loud as Samuel and Marty go fist to cuffs with "Arnie the Dinosaur",Dr. Kosevich butchers the English language, it's Murphy's Law on the way to the hospital, and Rebecca and Gail make impending motherhood a delight for all.

You can't go wrong with the film or with the DVD. It's a beautiful picture in anamorphic widescreen(Aspect Ratio 2.35:1), and the audio in Dolby Dig 5.1(or Surround) is outstanding. The soundtrack including "The Time of Your Life"(Steve Van Zandt) and scoring by Hans Zimmer is perfect for this film. There are subtitles in English and Spanish and may be viewed in French. There are trailers but no other special features included. It's a quality transfer with at an exceptionally good price.

It's it's a great ride, and one you will want to go on again...have fun...Laurie
