When successful child psychologist and one-time playboy Samuel Faulkner hears that his girlfriend, Rebecca, is pregnant, he panics. As Faulkner's crippling fear of commitment sets in, Rebecca decides to leave him. Realizing he wants to spend his life with her, Faulkner struggles to come to terms with the gravity of impending fatherhood -- a struggle helped in no way by the antics of Rebecca's bumbling obstetrician, Eastern-Bloc refugee Dr. Kosevich.
Nine Months

What to Know

Critics Consensus

Nine Months finds writer-director Chris Columbus playing to his worst comedic instincts -- and relying far too heavily on the trademark tics of his miscast leading man.

Hugo Davenport Daily Telegraph (UK) Feb 22
Grant overacts throughout, overdoing the boyish charm as another New Man is born, and failing even to trip convincingly on his own trousers. Go to Full Review Derek Malcolm Guardian 08/19/2025
Columbus pulls every shallow emotional string he can find to give the film its pro-family feelgood conclusion and directs in so slapdash a way that its faults seem to be constantly magnified. Go to Full Review Geoff Brown The Times (UK) 03/17/2021
Any charm he might possess has been squeezed out by the Hollywood machine, and the little shots of Hugh rollerblading, or Hugh getting his ears pierced, are scarcely enough to create new endearments. Go to Full Review Philip French Observer (UK) Feb 22
Dull, frenetic and forced, it's one of the unfunniest comedies of recent years. Go to Full Review Quentin Falk Sunday Mirror (UK) 08/19/2025
2/5
It would be good to report that this frantic farce is so brilliant that it puts all those blazing headlines in the shade but frankly the real-life story of Hugh's drive-by is a lot funnier than this contrived comedy. Go to Full Review David Nusair Reel Film Reviews 07/27/2023
