Unpregnant

I think booksmart is a film that created (or recreated) a new type of college and coming of age movies and this is the second film on this kinds of films. I liked it because in the 2010s the comedies really deteriorated and did not renew anything. Unpregnant and Booksmart are trying to bring some style and insights for the young and the general. I really liked in personally the idea to make it also a road film. It's amazing. Good script, great visuals.

Unpregnant is the type of movie I wish existed when I was a teen. Informative, cute, emotional. Please, more real girls exerting control over their bodies and choice in buddy road trip films. The narrative around abortion is riddled with so much fear and shame, this needed to be made.

I liked this small movie. Nothing too special here but hit all the right spots, again and again. Joyous movie that really relates.

Got kinda boring towards the last half, but still a great ride. Liked it a lot.

Girl gets pregnant and heads on a road trip to the place to get an abortion. Fun and learning life lessons ensue.

Unpregnant is not a perfect movie. It's a good movie which has certain problems but at the same time with so many good moments. The viewer will not get bored because it's a lot of fun and the leading duo have a good chemistry and did a great job. I love buddy movies and I love road movies. This movie has done justice to both these genre and so it's a thumps up from me.

Unfortunately, when you have a film centered around a "controversial" topic such as abortion, there's going to be thousands of biased, 1 star ratings that bring the average score down real low. The majority of which from people who didn't even watch the movie. "Unpregnant" is not your average "chick flick." In fact I watched it the first time with my male friend and he really enjoyed it. It's witty, adventurous, and pretty original. In most of these teen adventure/comedies, the humor is too forced, storylines are cliché and not well developed. However, nothing about "Unpregnant" seemed too forced. The humor was casual and enjoyable, it had a great, catchy soundtrack, and character development. Along the way, the girls met many interesting characters and faced various obstacles that were actually unexpected and fun. It was a good mix of silly and serious. None of the scenes dragged out, it had a good pace, and a satisfying ending. So again, don't look at the ratings and listen to these 1 star reviews... if this movie interests you, give it a try. I think it's worth the watch, and it's free on HBO MAX so why not!
