Mamaboy

'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

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.

Acting wasn't very good at all, with the "emotional" scenes seeming sarcastic at best. If you know anything at all about pregnancy and childbirth it is infuriating to watch, and it ends up being pretty Christian. It could be a really cute movie, but there's no showing of bonding between characters at pretty much any point. Lots of plot holes and untied loose ends, and a lot of the things characters do don't make any sense in the storyline, and the arcs aren't told well at all. The writing seemed amateur, the acting as well. To some extent the child actors can be excused but still pretty shoddy even with the adults. Really creepy nurse that was supposed to be "funny", I guess? She just came off as pedophilic and was the worst character, even in the sea of poorly developed characters. Fun to watch with friends and make fun of.

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!

THIS MOVIE IS THE BEST WRITTEN PIECE OF LITERATURE EVER. EVERY SINGLE FRAME HAS SO MUCH EMOTION AND DEPTH PUT INTO IT, ALONG WITH HAVING SOME OF THE BEST HUMOR EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE. WORDS ALONE CANNOT DESCRIBE HOW INCREDIBLE THIS WORK OF ART IS, AND I CANNOT RECOMMEND IT ENOUGH. IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO NOT WATCH THIS MOVIE, AND ALL COUNTRIES SHOULD MAKE A LAW WHICH FORCES PEOPLE TO WATCH IT. MAMABOY IS SIMPLY THAT INCREDIBLE. AMEN.

(Jokes aside, it's not abhorrent but it's not good either. I recommend you watch it with friends exclusively to make fun of it or else you will receive little enjoyment from watching this nonsensical movie. I'd be lying if I said I didn't have fun making fun of it.)
