Kinda Pregnant (2025) || More Like Kinda... Atrocious?
Anyone who really knows me will testify that last week, especially last weekend was exceedingly tough for me, but I’m super grateful I got through it. At least I would have been, if I didn’t yet another thing to plunge me into near-depression.
I’d gotten a movie I wanted to say, but I heard rumours that the film would make you cry buckets, and frankly, I’d appreciate that on any other weekend where I still have tear ducts left to cry, than this one. So, I opted for comedy. Knowing better, I should have chosen a Korean comedy film, but I unwittingly went for Hollywood comedy. So, hear I am, sharing my horrific story with you.
Kinda Pregnant (2025)
Since Lainy was a kid, she’d always wanted to have a family. Be a Mom, more precisely. But now she’s a woman in her forties, and it seems like her dream of becoming all that she’s ever wanted, is slipping slowly but surely out of her hands.
But there’s hope because Lainy’s boyfriend, Dave, has announced a fancy dinner date to mark their anniversary, and Lainy is sure he’s going to propose. But, he doesn’t, and even goes ahead to make a weird proposition which has Lainy going ballistic. And when her childhood bestie, Kate, announces that she’s gotten pregnant (a prospect she’s always hated), Lainy feels cheated out of life, and decides then to do something outrageous. Fake a pregnancy.
My Thoughts and Rating
Hey, did you hear that? Something dropped now, have you seen it? Well, if you haven’t, I’ll just tell you. That’s one f my brain cells. A nice, well-functioning brain cell of mine that may have just dropped and withered away because of this movie. Seriously, @b0s, I blame you for telling me that I shouldn’t see a movie that will make me cry, and I should watch something fun instead. I know you say I have a thing for stumbling on the worst movies, but you deserve as much hate as will be going to this movie, because how could you? I should have just gone ahead to cry, lol.
But honestly, people. Where do I even start?? This is quite honestly the most ridiculous script I’ve ever had the misfortune of seeing. Don’t get me started on the premise being a little girl whose literal life goal is to be a Mom. Not shading her for it, because there are people like that, and everyone deserves to live and love how and what they want, but basing an entire movie on that? How exactly will that go? I’ll tell you, it goes bad. Really bad.
Then, the humour. I do not know much about the American schooling system, but I know for sure that least thing like cussing out in front of middle schoolers will get your employment terminated fast. Let alone vaping in front of them. Let alone explaining threesomes to them. Let alone setting their school books on fire and causing a fire breakout (even if it’s accidental). The fact that they let the staff of that school get away with all of that is not relatable. It’s just plain insane and borders on the ludicrous.
I know Hollywood productions may have vulgarities going on for them, but this was honestly too crude, inappropriate and frankly, unfunny. I couldn’t stomach it. I was eating a nice meal and I nearly threw up at just how unnecessarily vulgar all of it was. The film could have done just horribly without all that crudeness, but they had to make it nastier with the abundance of lewd and lame jokes. Despicable.
Maybe the film wouldn’t have been too bad. Maybe we would have survived the awful comedy. Maybe we would have survived the non-plot, if the actors were any good. All horrible actors. From the main lead down. Everyone was doing too much. It was painful to see. A hard watch, truly with no real chemistry from even the main lead to her love interest and vice versa. How can everyone in the movie be so unlikeable and annoying. Maybe except, Brianne Howey, because I loved seeing her starring in a movie that was not Ginny and Georgia, and where she didn’t have her infamous Texan drawl.
I wish the film at least focused on Lainy’s relationship with her best friend, and how that was what her prompted her outrageous decision instead of painting her to be that unselfish. Or at the very least, given us a decent ending with she becoming pregnant in the end or finally having the family she wanted, or better still, revealing the truth to Josh before it all went down. But we didn’t get that, and it was quite sad. Can’t be disappointed in a film you never appointed in the first place, but I was expecting to crack a smile a little bit not get nearly mad.
I watched this film, so you wouldn’t have to. You’re welcome. You may be different and love this film because I am seeing crazy reviews, but any right thinking human would find the entire film offensive. Sorry, not sorry. What a way to ruin my night. A 2.5/10... because I’m generous and generally a good person on Sundays. Have a lovely week ahead, everyone.

Come get MOONed!
she could do the movie now without the prosthetic baby bump 😅
WoW!!! I never expected to read dry tear ducts when I saw only the cover of this review in the community feed ☹️, first things first, lots of encouragement because situations like this that almost generate depression take time to heal and stabilize but time is wise to mold peace and calm, cheer up 🤗
Being a mother I have noticed how it affects the soul of many women, in fact most of them I know are not interested in that, I studied engineering and I surround myself with women who are very practical haha, but the point is that of course I have met women whose life purpose is to give birth .... and only that .... give birth 😐, in my case if I were a woman I would prefer to have pet dogs and take care of them as children haha
A sepulchral review for a film that is very noticeable in its poster that is going to be fatal, I think that yes, it was better to see something that made you cry more, that amplified that feeling of sadness 😅, seriously thank you for saving me from watching this film \😃/
Jhymi the Messiah 😂🤣🤲🏿. The moment a movie gets idiotic I'm off 😂. Reason I always forward to the end or read about it first on google to be sure I really want to see it.
Stray Bullet touching @b0s in Every corners 🤣🤣🤣,
