This film has an overly celebritized cast, which should have worked for this film but it didn’t. Too many celebrities, too short a time on stories. They needed to flesh out the stories and give the actors more time on-screen. I would have enjoyed it more with them going deeper into the stories, the miscarriage, the adoption and the twins. I would have also liked them to go deeper into the different issues that each pregnancy has. Of course all of this would have been a nine month film and they wanted it down to 110 minutes. So, maybe this film shouldn’t have even been started but I would say it wasn’t a completely wasted 110 minutes. There was some heartfelt moments.
