Critic Reviews of "Unexpected"
San Diego ReaderAugust 20, 2015With a 90-minute running time, Unexpected would fit comfortably, with room for commercial breaks, in a two-hour network time slot. How did it ever find a theatrical release?
Chicago Sun-TimesJuly 24, 2015Smulders gives one of the most natural performances of her career, and Bean's subtle, strong work announces her as a young actress to watch.
TheWrapJuly 24, 2015A well-intentioned snooze. ... The script's high point for adrenaline is when Samantha and Jasmine make the impulsive decision to - wait for it - litter.
RogerEbert.comJuly 24, 2015Except for a bit of contrived conflict that arises toward the end, the connection between these two expectant mothers-who are at vastly different points in their lives-rings with a mutual kindness and compassion.
Toronto SunJuly 23, 2015Thanks to an intelligent script and the performances of Cobie Smulders, Gail Bean and Elizabeth McGovern, the minutiae of everyday life in this small, lovely film will capture your interest.
Toronto StarJuly 23, 2015Unexpected features fine performances from both women and I'd love to see more from newcomer Bean, showing grace and maturity onscreen.
The Film StageFebruary 24, 2016This is a smart, sophisticated piece of storytelling that will please any and all crowds.
FILMINK (Australia)January 01, 2016Painfully earnest, Unexpected dances around some interesting issues - race, class, poverty, bodily autonomy - without ever grappling with them in any meaningful or dramatic way.
amNewYorkAugust 23, 2015A rare movie about pregnancy that recognizes and engages with the reality that it can be a complicated and confusing process.
Common Sense MediaAugust 14, 2015So-so drama about pregnant women with very different lives.
Fort Worth WeeklyAugust 11, 2015Unexpected collapses disappointingly even as it points in an intriguing new direction for its maker.
The Young FolksJuly 29, 2015While Unexpected doesn't actively pursue a greater conversation on race and privilege, or even the state of Chicago's education system, it does spark a conversation.
