Challenges of impending parenthood turn the lives of five couples upside down. Two celebrities are unprepared for the surprise demands of pregnancy; hormones wreak havoc on a baby-crazy author, while her husband tries not to be outdone by his father, who's expecting twins with his young trophy wife; a photographer's husband isn't sure about his wife's adoption plans; a one-time hook-up results in a surprise pregnancy for rival food-truck owners.

Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Patently contrived to deliver the safer side of pregnancy-related humor over the course of five tidily intersecting plot lines.

rotten:
Director Kirk Jones and screenwriters Shauna Cross and Heather Hach consistently fall back on corny music and slow-motion to try to get laughs. Very little of this movie feels risky, or even frisky.

Babies are cute and expectant parents often aren't. That kind of sums up What to Expect When You're Expecting.

rotten:
Bringing a child into the world is no laughing matter, and all involved seem to have done their level best to make things as mirthless as possible.

Technically the genre isn't beneath contempt. But this movie is.
