    Fresh And Different

    Gets by on the charm of its two leads. Sometimes the romcom becomes blurred when you remember Josh's problem. But it's fresh and different and set in a modern social context. Recommended. Perfect funky music score.

    Rated ?

    This movie is also not suitable for Children. There's nudity in it and sexual situations (read baby making activities). It also has two leads who might remind you of other actors a bit. In the case of the male lead it might only be me, but he does look a bit like Chris Pratt, who's now gained a lot of Starlord ... I'm sorry I meant stardom, with his role in Guardians of the Galaxy. In the case of the female role, she does look a bit like a (better?) version of Lindsay Lohan.

    Not meaning any of those comparisons in a bad way of course. And they should not distract too much from the movie/the story this is trying to tell. And while this is very straightforward and easy to follow, it is a very decent, if predictable effort. It's funny at times and it has heart. What more can you wish for?

    Unbelievable, annoying and thin

    Please, what's up with the good votes here? I agree that it's nice to upvote movies from smaller countries for the variety and attention but honesty gets us way further.

    This movie is just a stupidly written, badly acted, dull and very annoying piece of wannabe comedy. I tried really to watch it with an open heart but too many things put me off.

    The main thin is that you can't really relate to or even feel with the story (COME ON, a guy suddenly wants a kid just like that with anybody because he has to. ANYBODY!).

    We really tried to watch the whole movie. Trust me, it's not going to be painless.

    .. don't pay too much attention to some of the negative reviews.. watch it.. you will be pleasantly surprised

    AFG!!.. this film sets the bar high. There's several very good reasons why this romantic comedy is as totally enjoyable as it is... Sarah Snook.. bit.ly/134TuuA ..a rising star... and Ryan Kwanten. They are both such great actors, there are little subtle inflections and mannerisms that just cannot be taught or directed, but are the essence of a well acted performance... and in addition, they are just so well paired in this film (it's hoped they soon get together again). Working with an enormously entertaining script, you WILL laugh!! And their love-making scenes are just so totally natural and sincere. Numerous rom-com's don't come anywhere near close to being worthwhile viewing as this one. Not usually mentioned, kudos to the outstanding camera and editing crews, their exceptional work in this instance is impossible to ignore, and when its this good it makes the entire film feel totally alive. And WTF!.. its got one really choice ending.. (final ten minutes, her eyes say it all). So do yourself a huge favor, and give it a try, even though you might not be totally into the RC genre. This is a movie for adults of all ages... and btw, listening carefully, it has one of the best accompanying soundtracks in films. PS...don't wait too long before watching it again, then you'll fully come to appreciate what a truly marvelous production it is.

    Fun!

    'Not Suitable for Children' is about an amiable slacker who discovers he has testicular cancer (it's a comedy, in case that's not obvious) and will be infertile in a matter of weeks. He sets about trying to convince his many former sexual partners to have a baby with him. None of them agree - presumably they don't want a baby by someone who possesses such a questionable taste in hats - but meanwhile, his best friend decides, after holding a baby - just once - that she would like to be a mother. I don't think either of them would be very good parents! Ryan Kwanten is appealing as the slacker; Sarah Snook, playing his best friend, looks very much like Australia's then-Prime Minister, Julia Gillard. It certainly won't tax the viewer's little grey cells (so that'll be the audience and the scriptwriter, then), but it's an amusing and entertaining film.
