Baby on Board (2009, U.S.)

I have only ever seen one Heather Graham movie that I liked (Killing Me Softly—and that was largely thanks to Joseph Fiennes). This one might have been the absolute worst.

The concept was good. A perfume designer creates a perfume for pregnant women to smell sexy to their husbands. Meanwhile, she and her husband find themselves pregnant unexpectedly. Because of a miscommunication, he thinks she's cheated on him and it isn't his, and they don't talk for the duration of her pregnancy. A large part of this is due to his friend, who is a complete scumbag who cheats on his wife regularly and is exactly the kind of guy you instinctively hate.

Clearly, it's supposed to be funny. But men being stereotypical pigs, sex jokes, fat jokes, and other jokes in bad taste made it a horrible, horrible movie. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone.

Rating: 1.5
