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.

[Grant's] mannerisms were endearing in Four Weddings And A Funeral. They are more of an endurance now.

[Nine Months] threatens to turn an interesting actor into a self-parodying commodity.

Audience Reviews for Nine Months

Jun 28, 2012Awful film from director Chris Columbus, Nine Months proves that Hugh Grant is a terrible actor that has no screen presence. The film was a total misfire. I hated this film, and thought it had so much more potential than what it turned out to be. This is boring, lazy filmmaking and is a film simply not interesting to get into. This film simply missed the mark in every respect. The result is a film that is very forgettable with a poor cast of actors and bad comedy. This film was simply one of those comedies that really tried too hard at delivering the laughter, but ultimately failed. Chris Columbus is very much hit and miss as a director, and he really misses it here. The film falls flat when it should be a good timer. This is a tiresome, unfunny film that really doesn't work. There's really no substance involved in this plot to keep you involved, entertained and ultimately interested. This was a painful film to watch, and one that doesn't deliver due to a poorly written, thought out script. If you're looking for a great film with this one, you will be sadly disappointed. There is nothing here that redeems its awfulness and it makes you wonder this film got made in the first place. As a romantic comedy, it fails, and as a film it fails even more. This is garbage that is uninspired and a waste of time to sit through. Chris Columbus really made one of his worst films with this one. Luckily he would redeem himself with the first Harry Potter film. This had some decent ideas that unfortunately went nowhere, and worst of all, it felt long, too long even because nothing good or entertaining really happens. Avoid this waste of film.Alex r Super Reviewer

May 20, 2011Columbus try make this film, a sucess comedy with aspect of sitcom. Grant, Moore and Williams as the neurotic Dr. Kosevich, which was to steal the scene, don't does Nine Months be a comedy for all family or a funny film, written by the creator of Home Alone. Summarize, Nine Months, is a bad movie, that could be fresh, but really not made right to recommend. Rotten.Lucas M Super Reviewer

May 15, 2010This movie was the same as all the other Hugh Grant movies. It was funny and had a lot of quirky English humour (Grant style). This is a movie about pregnancy (obviously). This couple has been together for a long time and all of a sudden she is pregnant. When he gets the news he gets extremely nervous about these lifechanging news because he expects all the worse things. I personally don't believe that pregnancy would make this much trouble in a relationship but it was funny to see another side of the story.Naughtia N Super Reviewer

Sep 12, 2009Hugh Grant plays a psychologist whose life seems to be going very well until he gets the news that his girlfriend is pregnant. The film has plenty of supporting characters (Julianne Moore, Tom Arnold, Joan Cusack, Jeff Goldblum and Robin Williams who has a few comic relief scenes as the Russian obstetrician) The story is simple but this is a light hearted, funny film.Deb S Super Reviewer
