Thanks for the memories!
One of my all time favorites.
Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.
This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.
Agree with another reviewer who posted that this movie was made by people who have no idea what being a single parent or a high school student is like.The characters we're supposed to relate to are completely unrealistic and extremely unlikable. They start taking drugs for no reason and get mad when they don't get their own way. One of the teachers injects herself with a fertility drug right there at school, and holds discussions about casual sex.And I couldn't help but notice that the camera often aimed at their chests. They're supposed to be underage, so making a movie about girls taking drugs and talking about sex while zooming in on their breasts is way beyond creepy. But hating the parents for trying to be responsible while their kids take drugs and talk about sex is just cruel.
Absolutely amazing.. What else can i say? I'm a 22 Year old male, and i do have a daughter of my own, this movie was great, from the start i was glued to the screen and i was still there at the end, and i didn't even move to grab a drink, or go the loo.I found this movie very emotional, and near the end i was almost in tears, and had a lump in my throat.. i'm not ashamed to admit that.What Jacey did was amazing and was a very tough decision for her, and i feel i can relate to how she felt, as i have been in this situation myself. I will certainly buy the DVD for this once its out. 10/10. Well done.
For the most part I really enjoyed this movie (contains some vague possible spoilers).... The script was really there, wasn't at all unreal with a few minor exceptions. And the actors really were on their game. In particular singling out the ever talented Danielle Panabaker, whom I've really been a fan of for a long while and feel she really has a future in the acting world. The mother of a child at only sixteen, she as did her character's family, demonstrated that having a child so young is really hard and isn't something that should be taken lightly. So often you'd expect to see a family rallying to the cause in a movie such as this, but in this movie you didn't and because her world wasn't coming up roses despite the fact of having had a child really made it all the more interesting.What wasn't interesting however, and where those exceptions come into play, was when it started to become preachy documentary. As you would expect for a movie of this type, it quoted facts and statistics and then had what I'd call a "7th Heaven" moment in the school auditorium. I may be saying the wrong thing here, but since when have schools given more than a fleeting conversation or class time to such a thing as teen pregnancy? Maybe that's what's wrong with schools? I myself can only remember one and only one health class in my four years of high school, and that was more about STD's. I'm also not belittling teen mom's, but on parade? Didn't we at all expect that at some point in the movie once Jacey started hanging out with the other teen mothers? Maybe perhaps it would take something like that to scare kids into changing their ways, like putting a wrecked out car on the school front lawn to demonstrate the possible consequences of drunk driving, but I'd more likely guess that today's kids are rather very set in their ways. Cause even wreaked out cars aren't keeping our children from in some cases drinking and driving themselves to death.I lastly had a serious problem with the girls choice of dress and the guys reaction to them. I couldn't imagine a girl being allowed into my school, or most any reputable school dressed such as some of these girls were dressed. And guys hooting and hollering at them such as they were? Do I dare ask if that even goes on? Overall I really enjoyed this movie. I didn't so much like the preachy moments as stated above. But I also liked how such an event as befell Jacey wasn't just a speed bump in the road of her family's life but rather a train wreck. Cause sure, by the end of the movie it was all roses, but it definitely didn't start out that way.Bello
When I first heard about this movie, I wasn't sure what I would think about it, but since I watch lifetime movies like they are a religion, I decided to. All I can say is that it was well worth it..I loved the cast and I loved the story line..I am a fan of Jane Krakowski, and I think that this was one of her better roles..I liked her character, a emotional, yet determined woman to become a mother..I can't imagine a better woman for the part..But of course, what made this movie, was Danielle Panabaker..She played an extraordinary part, and I think she played it wonderfully..She played a confused, scared single mother..It actually seemed like this was coming from a real 16 year old single mom..Most stories seem like they were written by a 35 year old male..This one was so well written, that you would think it came straight from a 16 year old girl's mind..It was definitely a great movie, that I would watch again in a heartbeat
