This film represents Hugh Grant's first big bid at Hollywood stardom, on the heels of the success of Four Weddings and a Funeral. But he stumbled twice: first with this mundane comedy, then by being arrested after soliciting a prostitute near downtown Hollywood, the week before the film opened. Directed by Chris Columbus (Mrs. Doubtfire), Nine Months was a weak reworking of a French film about an aging bachelor (Grant) who can't decide whether to commit to the woman he loves (Julianne Moore). When she becomes pregnant, he still can't make up his mind and winds up blowing hot and cold on the subject of fatherhood, which causes tension in the relationship. There's a lot of low comedy involving Grant's best friend; Tom Arnold plays this ultra-married and child-ridden suburbanite, who makes fatherhood look like a living hell. Robin Williams has a funny cameo as a foreign doctor, but in the end, the sentiment is ladled on and Grant doesn't have nearly enough funny material to work with. --Marshall Fine
Description:
Sam (Hugh Grant) has it all - a wonderful girlfriend, a successful child psychology practice and a red Porsche. But he's faced with having something he never wanted when he learns his girlfriend (Julianne Moore) is expecting. The news sends the unflappable psychologist into a panic. Torn between advise given by a well-meaning but over-bearing couple, (Tom Arnold and Joan Cusack), and by his confirmed bachelor buddy (Jeff Goldblum), Sam's in serious danger of losing his mind and his girlfriend. He's got just nine months - give or take a week, according to their crazy Russian gynecologist (Robin Williams) - to grow up!

Rating:  - Here comes baby!
Nine Months starring Hugh Grant is a cute romantic comedy. Directed by Chris Columbus, Nine Months follows a young unmarried couple who about to bring a baby into the world. Grant is charming as always and his non-stop flustering is always engaging. Julianne Moore is great as well, I like in these kind of films. Robin Williams, Tom Arnold, Jeff Goldblum, and Joan Cusack also star. This movie is highly entertaining, laughs the whole through, check it out sometime.
Rating:  - I couldn't stop laughing
Wow! I have read everyone's review and I'm surprised with some of the low ratings. My husband told me about this movie and I couldn't wait till see it. When it arrived, I couldn't wait to get home and watch it. Let me tell you, it was definitely worth watching. I will agree that the fight in the delivery room should've been something that the director could've deleted from the movie, but other then that I couldn't stop laughing. There was a scene where Hugh Grant was watching the ultrasound that his girlfriend had got done, I had to cry when I saw the baby's heart beating. I've watched this movie 3 times already and I just got it 2 days ago. Definitely worth watching especially when Joan Cusack is having the baby.
Rating: - ~Great Romantic Comedy~
I remember watching this movie when it came out at the theater (I was 2 weeks away from having my 1st child). It was so cute & funny that when it was release on DVD I had to buy it. I was hoping that they would have come out with a Special Edition for their 10th anniversary as I've heard from an insider that they cut a lot of funny scenes of Dr. Kosevich (played by Robin Williams) out.
It has a fantastic all star cast:
Hugh Grant, Julianne Moore, Joan Cusack, Robin Williams, Jeff Goldblum & Tom Arnold. This is a total "chick-flick" that is a must see when your pregnant!

We were really happy to find this film, we had this same film and loaned it out and it was damaged.So when we found it on Amazon we were real happy. The movies in great shape and we got it quickly so thanks a lot.
Rating:  - When propaganda goes awry
I have to hope that this movie's makers really had good intentions, because that's the only thing that would save this movie. Perhaps, all they wanted was to create a funny light comedy that would show, without too much stress, one man's conversion from bachelorhood to parenthood (bypassing the marriage stage, for the most part) with they-lived-happily-ever-after finale.
What they ended up making is a pitiful, painful set of recycled stereotypes of manhood and womanhood; a story from the land where men are infintile, women long-suffering and sacrificial, and child psychologists can't cure themselves. Suffice to say that Julianne Moore's character has to bear her child almost to birth to be proposed to by the child's father. Apparently, while she was an inactive baby machine she didn't deserve such honor. In his good turn, Hugh Grant's character (the child's father) only feels the warm glow of fatherhood when he's told that the baby is a boy. You should see his face change from harried to beautified when the doctor delivers the news.
Whatever you do, don't let your kids watch this until they're out of college and can think for themselves.
