It was delightful and surprisingly had a couple of plot twists so it wasn't as predictable as what I thought it might be. It also highlights the misfortunes young women are faced when they are not provided with access to healthcare options and education surrounding pregnancy and parenthood. Great film!
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.
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.
I enjoyed this movie.
It was fun and easy going to watch.
I've never understood why others make it their business to try to decide what others choose to do with their own bodies.

A 17 year old women gets pregnant accidentally and cannot tell anyone she knows. Her family are extremely Christian and her "best friends" are looking for drama in the school. She cannot ask for aid from anyone. She has no one. Then she discovers she cannot get an abortion in the state she lives in. That is reality for women that live in states like Missouri.
That is what the film is conveying: these decisions are difficult, they require proper support to come to the best conclusion for the women. She is deprived from this and makes a decision to drive a 1,000 miles. Who would want that for there kid?
A lot of reviewers are focusing on a "women getting an abortion is bad" and not thinking about what put her there to make that decision alone.
Did you know
- TriviaBarbie Ferreira (Bailey) did not know how to drive during the movie, so Haley Lu Richardson (Veronica) spent a lot of time in the car with her stunt double.
- GoofsThe premise is that a teenager can't get an abortion in Missouri without parental consent. However, Missouri facility Hope Clinic for Women explained on its website how they provide teens with free legal representation to get a judicial bypass. There would be no need for a teen to travel out of state to keep her parents in the dark about an abortion.
