Nine Months (1995)

Awful, Horrible Movie!
11 November 2022
Warning: Spoilers
I actually PAID to see this POS when it was still in the theaters. Big mistake: that's $8.00 and a couple of hours out of my life that I can never get back!

The entire premise of the movie is just so wrong: A woman is in a long-term relationship with her boyfriend. Everything is fine, until one day when she sees some kids playing. Now, all of a sudden, she has a BAD case of Baby Fever! And since the boyfriend doesn't feel the same way, she accidentally-on-purpose "forgets" to use birth control, falling pregnant soon after and then forcing her man to marry her, even though he's not interested in that, either. Then...wackiness ensues, right through the end.

Most of the stars of this movie are A-Listers (or they were back in 1995, anyway), so it had to have been a pretty big-budget production. I can only think that they all were paid a LOT of $$$, because why else would they have agreed to be part of such a farce?!

Not only was this "comedy" not funny, but as a woman, I found it incredibly offensive that its main message to audiences was, "Ladies, want your man to marry you? Then just use the oldest trick in the book: get pregnant with his baby so that he'll have no choice but to make an honest woman out of you!" Ugh!

If you're reading this review in 2022, and are wondering if you should bother with the movie because it's available via streaming or whatever, do yourself a favor and RUN as far away from it as possible. If you decide to watch it anyway, don't say I didn't warn you!
