Olivia Munn was the best part of this movie


I went in expecting to be cringing the whole way through, and although some parts of it were very cringe-worthy, Olivia Munn really made me chuckle and managed to turn a what would be unlikeable character into a likeable one. Hadn't heard of her before this movie, but I'm now a fan.

She has gotten good reviews from some publications. The problem is this movie is majorly underpreforming.

Olivia Munn should have been the lead in this.

i was disappointed in her character, for once i would love to see a woman say she doesnt want kids and mean it, and if she gets pregnant not be afraid to get an abortion and be firm about that been the right thing for her!

i just feel its cheating having her be a certain way you like or don't like and suddenly just because she's pregnant and her boss gives her a pep talk on motherhood suddenly she's ok with it, what about her saying :
"kate i understand that's how you feel but i don't feel that way, i'm sure this would be a mistake for me to bring a child into the world, i feel strongly about this and won't change my mind, i'll get appointment tomorrow and i promise you this won't affect my job performance, still thank you, i'm glad someone bothered to try and change my mind, at least now i'm extra sure this is the right thing for me!"

i felt like there was subliminal anti-abortion message in the film , the movie gave off this weird vibe ,why should women have to juggle all, why do i always get the feeling its up to the woman to give up something?why is the dad job always more important, why didnt he become a stay at home dad? why should a woman always want to have a baby , nevermind she didnt at first? and the whole maternity scene was so forced!! what's so wrong with not wanting to be a mom?

i don't have any problem with people who love kids and wants tons of them, yay for them, i think its great but seriously, if a woman wants to be a great businesswoman and single what's the problem,surely there's more to been a woman than making babies?!!!
