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.
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!
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.

Loved Barbie Ferreira in this! Wish the movie was a little more realistic at some points, but overall it was a good time!
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.
