one of my absolute favorites!

I cannot think of one single thing that I would change about this film. The acting is incomparable, the directing deft, and the writing poignantly brilliant.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

Well, this movie has a great message to deliver and interesting. But sadly, it's a bit draggy. They failed to deliver the important parts, and focus more on the uninteresting parts. I was expecting something a little better. It doesn't make sense ofc, but it's fiction so i'm okay with that. But i'm expecting a little more neat story-line. Not really worth watching. But people's judgement are different.

The script is promising and tries to do something original and new. However, it has plenty loose ends. It is more like a script written by amateurs than professionals. The actors are all amateurs and were not able to bring the story to life. The movie is sloppy, slow-paced, and devoid of any humour to make it an interesting watch. The characters are mainly caricatures and the actions in the story are unbelievable. The viewer is not lured into the plausibility of the movie's plot even though it is original (a boy carrying a pregnancy and its attendant effects). All-in-all, you may see this movie if you want to know how a bad movie can be. If you are into amateurish movies, then this movie is perfect. However, for more serious viewers: SAVE YOURSELF THE STRESS AND TIME!

Watched this tonight and wasn't expecting much from reading the synopsis but just wanted a fun movie to kill a night. I ended up really liking it. The idea is pretty original and handled in an interesting way. Watching Kelly and what he went through as far as being embarrassed and even shunned, and all the physical changes he went through really drives home what young girls go through when pregnant. Somehow seeing it from the guys point of view gives more sympathy for the girls. I think we just take things for granted when a girl is pregnant but watching a guy lose friends, have his peers whisper about him, start sucking at things he loves like baseball, it brings home the realities.A lot of these actors are not well known yet even saw some that it was their first role (at least first listed on IMDb) and I thought they all did fine The kid who plays Kelly has a really expressive face and does emotion well, I expect we'll see him in more. And Ditto, he'll be playing the stoner guy in everything soon no doubt. I was also impressed by the little brother, his acting was very natural which is sometime tough for young kids. The Nurses character was hilarious and she played it well. No one was bad, that in itself is a pretty good feat for any movie! Production value was good, sound and lighting on point, music fit well. All in all comes across as a larger budget film then what it's listed on IMDb.Oh and Busey....... Random ....... loved it! The only thing that bugged me (and its no big deal really) and is why I didn't give a 9 or 10 was I couldn't figure out if this was one of those Christian production movies or something. A few things like when Kelly's dad is talking to him really came across that way but then the whole topic of the movie doesn't seem like it would be. I really don't care either way, I'll watch either kind of movie as long as it's good. It just kind of bugged me.

'Mamaboy' tells the story of Kelly Hankins played by Sean O'Donnell (It's Sketchy, The Win) and how HE takes on pregnancy during his senior year for his longtime sweetheart Lisa played by Alli DeBerry. He's a guy he can handle it right? Think again......The cast did a wonderful job at bringing their characters to life. Mikey Reid was hilarious as Kelly's oddball best friend 'Ditto' and he and Sean worked well off each other throughout. Dylan Riley Snyder (Kickin' It) nailed his part as the pesty 'Milton'. Other standouts for me were Cassidy Ann Shaffer who played a girl crazy for Kelly named 'Candy', Jesse Miller as 'Nurse Zelda', Pamela Finny who played 'Mom' and 'Uncle Theus' played by J.D. Rudometkin.I thought the pregnancy aspect was handled nicely as well. I tip my hat off to the makeup/special effects department for keeping it as realistic as possible stretchmarks and all! I'd also like to point out how it was cool that different sizes of the belly were used for each stage. In many other pregnancy films a character will find out they're pregnant and a scene or two later already look like they're 6 months!As a fan I must say I thought Sean O'Donnell definitely delivered (both literally and figuratively) in his first lead role. He has a charming on screen presence and I thought he was not only funny in the comical scenes but also handled the more emotionally driven ones nicely as well. Taking on a role like this also shows he's not afraid to play characters who are unconventional or put into unconventional situations which I think will definitely broaden the horizon for him as an actor. Looking forward to seeing what awesome characters he takes on next. I'm definitely on board for him!In conclusion 'Mamaboy' is humorous, heartfelt, entertaining and sprinkled with some cheesy goodness. There are even some surprising twist along the way! Props for it also being an original story in a current movie world where everything is either a remake or an upteen sequel. I definitely recommend checking this gem out!-Michael
