Top Critics Reviews
fresh:
Smulders gives one of the most natural performances of her career, and Bean's subtle, strong work announces her as a young actress to watch.

A well-intentioned snooze. ... The script's high point for adrenaline is when Samantha and Jasmine make the impulsive decision to - wait for it - litter.

fresh:
Except for a bit of contrived conflict that arises toward the end, the connection between these two expectant mothers-who are at vastly different points in their lives-rings with a mutual kindness and compassion.

Unexpected features fine performances from both women and I'd love to see more from newcomer Bean, showing grace and maturity onscreen.

rotten:
If their story feels more like a dramatized argument than an involving drama, that's no fault of the lovely, unforced performances by Cobie Smulders and newcomer Gail Bean.
