This is How Movies Should Be Made

Not sure how, but this is easily one of the best movies all summer. Multiple levels of funny, never takes itself seriously, super colorful, and creative.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

A film of deceptively outspoken contemporary relevance, this is cinema at its most alert, alarming and alive.

i came into this movie thinking it was just another same ole, bad acting lifetime movie that i caught on TV the other day so thought i'd sit through it. i sensed the kind of vibe the movie was trying to set within the first 10 mins and thought it'd head the way movies of a similar nature would go. but the movie got me hooked the more i watched and in the end, it caught me off guard in the most unexpected way.i won't spoil it, but will just say that i was real surprised by this movie, being that it was a movie made for TV. powerful performances by danielle panabaker, jane krakowski and mercedes ruehl, and just, in general, a good, emotional story about the journey of a young mother.now, THIS is what a made-for-TV movie should be like

This was the most amazing and touching movie I ever saw. I'm a teenager who's mom got pregnant at a young age and she tells me nothing about her troubles as a pregnant teen so I think that this movie was very helpful and inspirational. When this girl got pregnant, she was faced with humiliation and the fact of raising a child but through it all she got to see what was right and I was just touched by this movie. If I ever got pregnant and gave the child up, I couldn't forgive myself but it was good to see that she could be a role model to all teenagers who want or have a baby. The fact that there are people who are trying to have a baby and can't and people who have a baby that don't want it is a fact that everybody should know.

i love how this movie shows what can happen if you are a teen mother, and if people find out. i think it was heartwarming and some points honestly brought tears to my eyes. Danielle Panabaker gives a great performance in this movie. this movie, to me, is an excellent thing for teens and their parents to watch. even people who aren't teenagers yet may like this movie. this can really show you that having sex as a teen, or even preteen, has it's consequences. all in all, i really like this movie a lot.lifetime is doing a great job by using such hot, young actors/actresses in their movies. i most definitely give this movie two thumbs up and five gold stars.

This movie was awesome, and not just "awesome for a Lifetime movie", I would buy this DVD. They did a wonderful job and I was really pleased to see Danielle again since I remembered her from Sex and the Single Mom and a Disney channel movie.I've been waiting for a new young mom movie since "Fifteen and Pregnant" with Kirsten Dunst was getting pretty old. Mom at Sixteen took a completely different path though. I don't know if they were aiming to make the viewer care more about Jacey than the baby, but I sure did! In most movies involving babies (since I have one myself) I find myself wondering what will happen to the baby, etc. Not this movie though, I was too focused on Danielle's character and what she was going to decide.I honestly didn't care very much for Jane's character though, or Mercedes'! Maybe it's just me, but I didn't find anything extremely likable about them.Bottom line, this is a great movie! All the good Lifetime movies seem to JUST be ending when I find out they're on, so now I use my TV search and program my TV so I don't miss it, I suggest you do the same!
