I don't get how some of you people could not like "Nine Months". OK, perhaps some scenes were too cushy and sentimental, but the laugh to running-time ratio is surprisingly high. This may be branded as a chick-flick but there's comedy here for everyone. The film is basically a combination of different styles of wit from the six main stars and the result is surprisingly good.
Hugh Grant does his usual high class, bumbling gentleman thing, Tom Arnold does his annoying best-friend neighbour routine, Jeff Goldblum as the decidedly cynical artist with a skeptical view of everything, Joan Cusack as the kooky ditz, Robin Williams as the inept foreign doctor and Julianne Moore plays it straight. There's also a great mix of verbal and slapstick wit that doesn't go un-noticed (the preying mantis joke is a laugh-riot).
For the most part, "Nine Months" is a welcome change from your usual fluffy, smiley rom-com. I have absolutely no idea why people don't like the movie because I think it's great. My IMDb rating: 7.2/10.
