    Decent and realistic

    For women who like a good BFF movie---it's cute and has some funny moments. Ilana Glazer is a great actress and it's unfortunate in this world that people like Julia Roberts, with zero range, gets fame and fortune . The movie was a like an episode of HBO's Girls if you like that kind of thing. I do. Sometimes you are sick of violence, vampires, gratuitous sex and you want a fun, innocent movie with some charm. Some criticism is necessary if one only gives a movie a six. How does Eden have such a large/great apartment if she is just a yoga instructor ? Doesn't make sense . And the exit of Claude makes no sense and should have been a different excuse. Many women know the ups and downs of lifelong friendships and sometimes it has a happy ending and many times it doesn't last and you only have your good memories of the person who got you through middle school.

    For the Mums

    I really liked this! This movie had me laughing throughout, shocked at times and crying by the end, I'm learning to not always trust the ratings on here, the movie is not for everyone. It's definitely for the Mothers, Aunties and Best friends, might get too real for men who aren't Dads. I can relate to the relationship between the women juggling their conflicting struggles. They showed the loneliness that comes with being a parent of multiple kids and a lot of the more real parts of pregnancy and parenting that we don't often see in films or shows.

    The movie was funny, witty, charming and unpredictable.

    Ilana Glazer's Broad City spunk was great to see again, coupled with Michelle Buteau's crack up personality. The supporting cast was super complimentary.

    Don't be afraid of different

    To all the naysayers who took time to try to criticize this movie, I say "Guess what? There are really people like this in the world." Not everyone is the cookie cutter typical rom-com character, action hero or sci-fi alien that Hollywood churns out by the truckload. Do I relate to them? No, not particularly, but do I know some people like these characters in real life? Yes, we all do. Are these characters a bit over the top? Yes, but guess what, it's a comedy and like any good movie or book they are going to be caricature's of real people. And it refreshing to watch a movie that showcases an off beat type of person once in a while. So, sit back, enjoy the slightly absurd take on the situation, laugh at their bizarre approach to life and get a glimpse into the way some people choose to live their lives.

    All that said, the movie succeeds mostly due to the excellent direction, clean editing, good script and solid acting.

    The blend of off beat humor and the real life personal drama that everyone experience in really is very well balanced. I look forward to more movies like this and less of the CGI blockbusters and silly horror movies that have become cliche.

    "Let's go ruin a towel"

    The first few jokes were predictable, like the wet seat gag, which was sooo obvious. It felt like it dragged on too long. However, after that the humor was better, great even. It's a movie that rewards you the longer you watch.

    Despite the rough start, the funny scenes made the movie for me. I especially liked the twins, the omen bedroom scene, and the big needle scene-my favorite part. There's some profanity and raunchy comedy, which might bother some, but I actually enjoyed it. I say that 'cause the movie deals with themes of pregnancy, sisterhood, and family-the beautiful and difficult aspects, and their impact on mental health. I think some people might watch it for those themes and not like the humor, but I felt the two elements worked well together, making it appealing to different audiences. It reminded me of "Scrambled" from earlier this year, which more people should have seen.

    The movie is quite messy and chaotic, which led to some unexpected good scenes like the random plumbing issues. So I liked that chaos. It was strange there wasn't a nurse to help her to the 4th floor, though. I liked seeing Stephan James from "Beacon 23" and the doctor provided great comedic relief.

    The chemistry didn't pull you in like the greatest girl-mance or romance ever, but the conversations felt real. The characters felt like actual friends. It didn't have the strongest start, but the movie gets better as it goes, and I'd recommend it. If you like this, you should check out "Scrambled" too.

    Funniest movie of the year

    I have literally never written a review on here, but I'm so shocked by the negative reviews that I feel compelled to do so.

    I saw this movie tonight as a part of Cinemark's "Secret Movie" series and I was so pleasantly surprised. This movie was NOT on my radar at all (and I go to the theater every weekend), so imagine my surprise when this movie came on and I absolutely loved it!!

    I honestly don't think I would've ever gone to this movie if it weren't for this "secret movie" thing, but it was so funny I would honestly go see it again. I laughed the entire time.

    I just saw on a poster for it a critic say something like "Bridemaids for having a baby" and I couldn't agree more. This was a movie about women and women issues, and I'm not a woman, but the humor is so good that none of that mattered.

    Maybe it's because I live Broad City, but this movie hit that same exact sense of humor and it was amazing.

    It was also surprisingly heartfelt and sweet.

    Ignore whatever these other reviews are saying. They're clearly made by boomers who can't handle women being hilariously crude and raunchy. It's rare to find actual comedies these days, and this one does not disappoint. GO SEE IT.

      Eden: How are we not talking about this all the time? We grow bodies inside of our bodies. What the fuck? This person just came out of my vagina. This is all the hot news anchors should be covering 24/7. People coming out of pussies. Every day for thousands and thousands of years. What the fuck?
