Politics aside, Obvious Child hinges on Slate's performance, which is endearing and real.

比较轻松的都市女性小品,不是很喜欢剧作里用爱情来解决人生困境的做法,毕竟一夜情之后还能找到这么正常的男人基本属于是天方夜谭了。而且女主这个困境吧,好像也有点难relate,虽然失恋失业,但是父母无条件地爱她,还有朋友可以倾诉,已经远超大部分老钟人了(没有说意外怀孕这件事很轻松的意思)。开放麦的部分稍微有点尬笑,但是好在女主还比较自然真诚,所以也算能看得进去。

Kimberley Jones · Austin Chronicle 89.00/100.00

It’s an indie film about abortion that comes snuggled in the broad strokes of a quirky relationship comedy. A grump might wonder when indie films got so soft, but I’m more intrigued by the inverse: Why aren’t more studio films this clever and winning and conversant in the same language as their audience?
