October Baby Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
WillSushyMedia This movie was so-so. It had it's moments, but wasn't the greatest.
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
SnoopyStyle Hannah (Rachel Hendrix) faints on stage doing a college play. Her father Jacob (John Schneider) works at the hospital. Her parents are less than forthcoming. She's told that she was a 24 weeks premature baby and these are probably the resulting complications. She's actually adopted and she was a failed abortion. She is shocked and only has her friend Jason (Jason Burkey) for support. Jason goes with his friends on a road trip on a VW bus going to spring break in New Orleans. After a fight with Jason's girlfriend, Hannah decides to go to Mobile, Alabama by herself followed by Jason.First and most importantly, this is an anti-abortion movie. It's really sincere. The film even has the "hate the crime, not the criminal" line. The revelation of the story in the middle is just too long winded and way too preachy. The movie grinds to a stop unless you're a true believer. You may be one who wants the characters to preach on. The kids on the trip are mostly stereotypes. The only thing missing is some weed. Take away the message from this movie, it is just a slow moving romance and a muddy search for birth parents. The dialog lacks snap. Rachel Hendrix is a lovely girl but there isn't much else in this movie. Jason Burkey doesn't have any energy. John Schneider is carrying too much anger and way too much emotions. He should let her space to emote but he takes up all of the space for himself. It should be about her but he makes so much of it about him. It's a melodrama only fit for the pro-life crowd. Otherwise, it's just too heavy handed.
timandm This movie is well made, well acted, and has heart...Unfortunately, it is SLOOOWWW PACED and rather predictable. A teen girl finds out that she's adopted. She goes on a road trip to find her birth mother. When something is actually happening that matters, the movie is entertaining. Unfortunately, the movie is inundated with spans of quiet...For example, early on there is a scene in a library where we have 8 seconds of a young man walking up the stairs and then joining his friend at a table... That 8 seconds might not seem like a big deal, but multiply the movie is riddled with those 'empty spaces.' I think if the director removed those 'empty spaces' the movie would have a good pace.Now, to be clear, it is ultimately a heart-warming and touching film. If you have patience, you'll likely enjoy the movie.
Ismaninb .... because it will reinforce you unbelief. It shows everything that's wrong with Christianity:antiscience; - an as cheesy as possible appeal to cheap sentiment; - paternal dictatorship; - the idea that some pastor can provide instant healing of serious psychological problems; - a whole string of is/ought fallacies.So predictably lots of zealots bleat how life-changing (or whatever) this movies is, while it only confirms their religious biases. If you want to see a honest discussion of Christianity in modern society watch Mercy Streets instead. Franky is wrong. As a left-wing atheist I think everybody should see this. Everyone who can think for him/herself will be put off.
wfwardiii My wife had been wanting to see this film and it was only in theaters a few days so we rented it. The story was believable as was the acting. I found myself pulled into the story where I really liked some characters and was against others. It deals with real life situations, relationships, and emotions that real people experience... and it was done tastefully and honestly. There were a number of real-life lessons that I walked away with, and it does make you think about real life.Possible Spoiler - I was happy when Jason realized that Alanna wasn't really worth the drama she created; Bmac made me remember myself in high school and college (to some degree); you CAN get cops to give you a break sometimes (personal experience); glad Jacob realized you can't completely control your children (even when you want to)... The biggie was the power of forgiveness! ( I think the priest got it right) I was surprised when it was rated PG-13. I hear more graphic thematic material in TV commercials. I don't recall any language that was vulgar or profane. Also, there were no graphic pictures or scenes. PG-13... Really?I'm sure that given 10X more money, the movie could have been improved technically, but I thought it was great!
