Hollywood Power Players Cameron Diaz, Anna Kendrick, Jennifer Lopez, Elizabeth Banks and Brooklyn Decker star in this weekend's premiere, "What to Expect When You're Expecting"
SYNOPSIS:
Inspired by the perennial New York Times bestseller of the same name, WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU’RE EXPECTING is a hilarious and heartfelt big-screen comedy about five couples whose intertwined lives are turned upside down by the challenges of impending parenthood.
Over the moon about starting a family, TV fitness guru Jules and dance show star Evan find that their high-octane celebrity lives don’t stand a chance against the surprise demands of pregnancy. Baby-crazy author and advocate Wendy gets a taste of her own militant mommy advice when pregnancy hormones ravage her body; while Wendy’s husband, Gary, struggles not to be outdone by his competitive alpha-Dad, who’s expecting twins with his much younger trophy wife, Skyler. Photographer Holly is prepared to travel the globe to adopt a child, but her husband Alex isn’t so sure, and tries to quiet his panic by attending a “dudes” support group, where new fathers get to tell it like it really is. And rival food truck chefs Rosie and Marco’s surprise hook-up results in an unexpected quandary: what to do when your first child comes before your first date?
A kaleidoscopic comedy as universal as it is unpredictable, WHAT TO EXPECT WHEN YOU’RE EXPECTING finds humor and uplift in all the unexpected trials and triumphs of welcoming a child into the world. The film stars Cameron Diaz, Jennifer Lopez, Elizabeth Banks, Chace Crawford, Brooklyn Decker, Anna Kendrick, Matthew Morrison, Dennis Quaid, Chris Rock, Rodrigo Santoro, Ben Falcone and Joe Manganiello.
I wish I would have expected the big financial strain that one little baby would cause! LOL! I love both of my daughters more than the world itself but WOW are they expensive! I don’t know if they were more expensive as babies or as pre-teens.
I wish I had expected how much I would hate pregnancy. It was the most awful period of my life! But the end gifts were amazing!!
I wish I would have expected just how wonderful it would all be, and maybe I would have done it sooner than I did. That’s not to say there weren’t ‘hiccups’ along the way (and seriously there were many sometimes constant non-stop hiccups, my daughter hiccupped all the time in-utero!!). And while we still have our share of hiccups, both figuratively and literally, I am finding the parenting journey to be the most exciting and fulfilling thing I have ever done and probably will ever do.
I wish they would have casted real mothers for this movie. Only JLo has experience with birth. All the rest of the actresses have no idea of what being pregnant and delivering is like. I wonder if CDs ever considered how that may have impacted the movie.
I wish I had “expected” how to enjoy every amazing moment of being pregnant even though morning sickness and being uncomfortable seem to outweigh how incredible the growing life inside is.
