Kinda Pregnant (2025)


A single woman in her 40s, obsessed with having a baby since she was a kid, decides to roleplay by wearing a fake baby bump. It's a paper thin premise in which she leads a secret double life reaping the benefits of such newfound attention, with the predictable outcome and consequences. I hate how shallow and formulaic this stuff is, but the insult to injury is the fact that the romantic angle between Amy Schumer and Will Forte is not believable at all. It seems to be a woman's fantasy of what modern love should be, with the man acting docile, subservient and not questioning any of the stupidity that happens in this film. It's an insult to brain cells everywhere.
