"If there were a scale for measuring how much of a movie's substance was pure plastic, Nine Months would surely register dangerously high polymer levels" | ||||
"This adaptation of the French 'Neuf Mois' bottle-feeds us the same sticky pablum as 'Three Men and a Baby,' 'Parenthood' and 'Baby Boom.'" | ||||
"An exceedingly safe and conventional Chris Columbus comedy" | ||||

"An exceedingly safe and conventional Chris Columbus comedy" | ||||
"Even a C-section couldn't rescue the shallow script and overplayed performances by Hugh Grant and Tom Arnold" | ||||
"Good for a few laughs but soon turns tiresome" | ||||
"Writer/director Chris Columbus (Mrs. Doubtfire) delivers his usual slapstick and sap shtick, but the sitcom-slick results fall flat" | ||||
"Complacently conventional...it threatens to turn an interesting actor into a self-parodying commodity" | ||||
"Nine Months displays its Capraesque family values with pride, and it will make you laugh, but there's something oddly mechanical about it" |
