Rich Bonaduce reviews “The Back-Up Plan”
Rich’s Quickie: Have your own back-up plan when seeing this movie.
The Plan: Get (very) sexy Jennifer Lopez and good-looking Alex O’Loughlin together onscreen, and show Lopez get impregnated and deal with getting (somewhat) fat. I truly think that was the plan.
Back up; way up: But add a lot of fake-drama over typical relation woes, potty humor and bodily fluid and you’ve got yourself a stew! Yes, in this movie we get to watch Lopez pee on a stick (and later watch her dog munch on said stick – yum!), then later watch that dog puke it all up on a carpet (and just in case you miss it, they’ll give you a close up), we also get to see her blood and vaginal fluids on the tips of probes and fingertips (again, with close-ups), as well as a rather graphic birth scene with a woman who, shall we say, somewhat eschews landscaping “down there”. The dog gets most of the good lines.
Movie Grade: C-
Rated PG-13 for sexual content including references, some crude material and language.
Directing: Alan Poul
Writing: Kate Angelo
