Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 1.5/4 --
Preggoland feels like a rough cut of a Judd Apatow movie, similarly pushing the taste envelope in cringe-worthy directions before wrapping up with a rom-com bow.

Globe and Mail
Pointed social commentary shines through in this uneven but amusing pregnancy farce.

Variety
Rating: B- --
Part Todd Solondz, John Waters, Nicole Holofcener, and Bridesmaids, the bitter and cynical Preggoland is a unique comedy.

The Film Stage
Rating: 4/5 --
The script slyly pokes fun at the beatification of pregnant women and is smart enough to consider the serious issue of infertility at the same time.

NOW Toronto
There's satiric comedy to be mined from the conflicting messages society still sends about pregnancy, motherhood, and women's worth, but the script isn't smart enough to explore them.

Village Voice
Rating: B --
A compelling, periodically amusing look at conformity and misunderstanding, finding some fresh material to mine with a plot that's already informed a wide range of comedy projects.

The movie's flaw is that it mixes tones. Ruth, her relatives and her fellow workers are realistically played, but her gal-pal buddies are caricatures.

Description by OLDIES.com:
When 35-year-old Ruth (Sonja Bennett) ruins a baby shower with her juvenile antics, her old high school cronies -- who are all mothers now -- promptly de-friend her. But when she is later mistakenly thought to be with child she is inexplicably welcomed back into the group. Ruth plans on coming clean, but when her father (James Caan) has a heart attack, Ruth decides to continue to fake the pregnancy. Things get even more complicated when Ruth falls in love with her new boss, who seems to wants nothing more than to raise her unborn children as his own. Can she get out of this without losing her job, friends, respect of her family and the new love of her life?
