I was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

The story is about a beautiful innocent girl would you with her problems with her own way.of course she's the obvious child but in this childish behaviour, you see a lot more than that.they say going through life in that make you strong, maybe they're right, because after that incident you can see how she changes.the way she tried to make things right is so interesting to me and I can't get enough of it.I love this movie and I will watch it every time I feel blue and it makes me feel better

Incredibly charming take on the topic of drunk sex and abortions. This film is really authentic and genuine, I really enjoyed it and I would definitely recommend, I loved the characters, especially the main character, the choices she made were not completely stupid and the one night stand was also really good. I don't normally enjoy films like this, I find them cheesy and boring but this one was good and I enjoyed it. This movie is what Trainwreck tried and failed to be, it is humorous, clever, subtle and thoroughly enjoyable. This film feels and looks real. Jenny Slate and Jake Lacy were incredible in this film and they really convinced me of their talents in this movie. Do not expect anything too original though, It does follow the common steps of American rom coms but it is good for what it is and I would watch it again.

Talking to a family friend about films he was interested in,I was told about a Comedy that he had recently seen a trailer to.With Amazon hiking the price up by chucking postage in (what a bonus!) I was happy to find the film being sold in an auction on Ebay,which led to me getting ready to find out how obvious this child could be.The plot:Getting dumped by her boyfriend,stand-up comic Donna Stern's life goes into a tailspin.After performing a set about getting dumped,Stern meets a guy called Max,who she has a one night stand with.Waking up whilst Max is asleep,Stern grabs her clothes and sneaks out.A few weeks later Stern discovers that she is pregnant.Going to a Planned Parenthood,Stern decides to book an appointment to have an abortion.As she waits for the appointment,Stern starts to think about how to tell her family and friends about the abortion.View on the film:Making her debut,co-writer/(along with Karen Maine & Elisabeth Holm) director Gillian Robespierre and cinematographer Chris Teague give the title a warm Mumblecore appearance,by drawing Stern's life with light autumn colours,which gives the film a quirky atmosphere.Filmed in 18 days,the screenplay by Maine,Holm and Robespierre has a marvellous naturalistic quality,with Stern's joking around with friends and the support from her family avoiding any sugar-coating to instead go for something much more sincere.Taking a mature, neutral position to the subject,the writers explore the issue of abortion in a clear matter of fact manner,with the excellent comedic dialogue from Stern expressing the amount of thought she is putting into her decision.Joined by a great supporting cast which includes a very funny Richard Kind and Polly Draper, Jenny Slate gives a fantastic performance as Stern,whose stand-up shows Slate strikes with a rebellious edge,which is joined by a sweet nature over Stern deciding how to address the issue to her family and friends,in a superb film which avoids the obvious.

It's amazing when a director's first movie is as nearly perfect as this one is. It's a marvel. It's richly funny and touching and entertaining, but it's also exactly what we as a society need right now.Until I saw this, I hadn't noticed the extent to which the conservative nuts have turned abortion into something so vile that even its supporters are afraid to talk about it as anything but an evil last resort. It's unbelievably refreshing to spend an hour and a half in a world in which abortion is not only an acceptable alternative to childbirth but the healthy and valuable medical procedure it is in fact.Thank God for Gillian Robespierre and the wonderful people who helped her make this movie. Jenny Slate (obviously) and Gaby Hoffmann, whose strength as an actor grows with every movie she makes, deserve special praise for their fantastic performances.The trouble with conservative Christians is that they don't believe their own religion. If they did, they would have no objection to abortion, because it delivers the unborn child from this painful and dangerous world directly into the arms of their loving Father forever. Christians preach that God, but they don't really believe in him.If Christians believed their own religion, they would not reject or judge anybody; they'd embrace everybody, because that's exactly what Jesus did. Jesus welcomed everybody who came to him, especially sinners; he judged and excluded nobody. He preached love and healing, not judgment and condemnation. Christians have traded their loving God (the only true god) for a false god of vengeance and terror who's no better than Allah or Kali.
