Unpregnant (2020)
6/10
Not the big feminist mess I was expecting.
19 April 2021
Warning: Spoilers
The first time I heard about this movie, it was while watching Michael Knowles' coverage; as a religious conservative, the movie obviously struck a nerve with him. I'm not religious, nor do I believe that life begins at conception, so the premise of the movie I wasn't against. It being advertised as a feminist movie stopped me for a while; after that god awful pos known as Black Christmas 2019, I was in no mood to watch another feminist movie. But, it was the middle of the day, and I figured I'd tear the bandaid off.

So this movie follows Veronica, a teenage girl who finds out she's pregnant. Having nowhere else to turn, she asks an old friend Bailey to drive her to Albuquerque in order for her to get an abortion.

I like a roadtrip movie, and the characters Veronica and Bailey are enjoyable to watch throughout. Has a lot of typical stuff a road trip movie has. If you were expecting any major twists, the movie doesn't have one, although there is one brief scene with a religious couple the two come across where the movie turns into a thriller for a solid minute, that was unexpected.

I will say give the money a chance, it does get iffy with the more left leaning politics but it's not obnoxious with it; unless you're a pro-lifer through and through, you'll get more than enough entertainment with this movie.

I'll give it a 6 out of 10.
