Baby Mama
Would you put your eggs... in this basket?
Comedic geniuses Tina Fey (30 Rock, Saturday Night Live) and Amy Poehler (Saturday Night Live) team up to celebrate a modern twist on motherhood!
Kate (Fey) is a single, successful career woman who wants something more: a baby. But she gets more than she bargained for when she hires Angie (Poehler), a free spirit from South Philly, to be her surrogate in a hysterical mama match-up. From birth class to baby-proofing, they're the ultimate odd couple that critics are calling "the best female comedy duo since Lucy and Ethel" (Claudia Puig, USA Today).
With hilarious performances from an all-star cast featuring Greg Kinnear, Dax Shepard, and Sigourney Weaver, Baby Mama is as full of laughs as it is heart!

Predictable, unimaginative and unfunny. - Nikki
This story of a corporate vice president and the surrogate mother she hires is so committed to convention that it runs into cliché. For such a talented cast Baby Mama unfortunately misses the mark. It probably would be better as a 'Saturday Night Live' skitGood but not great - Malorie
I was expecting a lot when I started this movie. I am a big fan of both Tina Fey and Amy Poelher. The while the movie was not exactly what I expected, I can't say that it's not good. Both actresses are really good and the movie is really well written. It might not be their best work, but it deserves to be seen.Didn't like it. - sampid
Let me first say that I think that Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are two of the funniest people I have seen. Fey always made me laugh when she was a guest on The Late Show with David Letterman and Poehler was hilarious in Mean Girls.
The problem is that the movie they are in is very predictable. Things are set up and I could almost guess what was going to happen within the first 5 minutes.
Casting is dead on. Fey as the control freak executive and Poehler as the slob. Even the smaller parts, like Steve Martin as a hippie CEO and Greg Kinnear as the nice guy. The problem is that the story is just not very fresh. They should have made it ten years ago when surrogates where actually something that could shock people.
