Baby Mama Review

Baby Mama stars Tina Fey and Amy Poehler who were both on SNL together while Tina as left Amy Poehler is still there. Both did one of my personal favorite segments on SNL The Weekend Update. Baby Mama is Directed by Michael McCullers which is his first job as director.

When Kate Holbrook (Tina Fey) finds out that she can’t get pregnant she turns to having a surrogate having the baby for her. That woman is Angie Ostrowiski (Amy Poehler) who agrees to put Kate’s baby inside her and we follow the two through the course of the pregnancy.

I like this movie a lot but then on some parts I didn’t. The first parts of the movie I thought was dull with some quick bits of laughter here and there,only up till Amy Poehler moves in with Kate (Tina Fey) does this movie start to get funny. Some of the reasons why has to be with this movie not having a script and at times was a little dull and very predictable.

Aside from those flaws, Baby Mama is a very funny movie. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have great chemistry and that shows I hope in the future they can do more movies together. Some of my favorite moments come from Romany Malco who plays Oscar, he is a very funny person I especially liked him in the 40-Year-Old Virgin and on the Showtime hit Weeds. Another funny character was Steve Martin (who plays Tina’s boss), he has this very funny awkward scene.

Baby Mama I thought was funny but still with the flaws the movie is still watchable. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler have great chemistry and I hope they do a lot more movies together in the future. I still Recommend Baby Mama.
