Product Description
A successful, single businesswoman who dreams of having a baby discovers she is infertile and hires a working class woman to be her unlikely surrogate.
Amazon.com
Laughter and hearty guffaws abound in this comical look at 37-year-old career woman Kate Holbrook's (30 Rock's Tina Fey) desperate attempts to have a baby. Never mind that she's not married and has never been involved in a serious relationship; Kate wants a baby and will stop at virtually nothing to get one. After failed attempts at broaching the concept of conception with first dates and trying artificial insemination with the help of a sperm bank, Kate finds out that her t-shaped uterus leaves her with only a one in a million chance of conceiving a child. Adoption doesn't work out and she's left with the distasteful option of hiring a surrogate mother. Enter Chaffee Bicknell's (Sigourney Weaver) surrogate service and her recommendation of the working-class Angie Ostrowiski (Saturday Night Live's Amy Poehler) who, with her common-law husband Carl (Dax Shepard), is just desperate enough to take on the job in order to make some money, and the stage is set for baby making. As fate would have it, Angie and Carl break up just after Angie announces she's pregnant and Angie ends up moving in with Kate. Unfortunately, the two are completely incompatible and what ensues is a hysterical struggle to coexist while clashing over everything from proper nutrition to stroller selection, hair dye, and delivery options. Further complicating matters is Kate's budding relationship with ex-lawyer and juice-store owner Rob (Greg Kinnear), who just happens to be morally opposed to the whole concept of surrogate parenting. Finally, there's the question of just how fully Angie embraces the virtue of honesty. It's the juxtaposition of opposing viewpoints--so boldly stated, humorously set, and blatantly exploited--that makes this witty comedy so darn funny. Expect graphic references, raunchy humor, and a whole lot of laughter. --Tami Horiuchi

 Pretty good, considering, plus an Arena Football 1 connection! January 8, 2010
Ricahrd A. Salzer (Chesapeake, Virginia, USA)
You can have Tina Fey and her anti-
Sarah Palin crap and Amy Poehler is
just as cute, but my interest here
is in the Arena Football 1 connection.
Any mention of this (still new) sport
is good for the game. Look for Arena
Football 1 coming to an Arena near you,
back for it's 24th season in 2010!
 Entertaining Comedy January 4, 2010
Donna Grayson (Los Angeles, CA United States)
Two great female comedians, Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, make for a funny duo in "Baby Mama".
Tina Fey plays a professional business woman desperate to have a baby, while Amy Poehler is her surrogate.
They get into all kinds of funny situations together. Tina tries to get Amy's character to eat better and take better care of herself while she is pregnant. Greg Kinnear is the Juice Bar owner who becomes Tina's love interest. Amy Poehler is really over the top funny in this - she makes a great kooky pregnant woman. While Tina Fey is great as the women who seriously wants to have a child. This is a very enjoyable comedy.

Arnita D. Brown (USA)
Successful and single businesswoman Kate Holbrook has long put her career ahead of a personal life. Now 37, she's finally determined to have a kid on her own. But her plan is thrown a curve ball after she discovers she has only a million-to-one chance of getting pregnant. Undaunted, the driven Kate allows South Philly working girl Angie Ostrowiski to become her unlikely surrogate. This movie make you feel good and laugh so hard you could cry.

Tammy Perkins
Very funny, get ready to bust a gut, many many great one liners in this movie, so hilarious.
Tina Fey and Amy Pohler are excellent in this movie.
 This movie is just "okay" December 14, 2009
K. Bernard (New Orleans, LA USA)
This movie is kind of stupid, but teenagers might like it. There were some good parts and some good actors, but I don't want to watch it a second time. It wasn't terrible where I wanted to turn off the tv, just okay. Here is another movie I would rent before purchasing.
