Sneak Peak at "The Back-Up Plan"
Is it just us, or has NO one been asking for Jenifer Lopez to
return to the big screen? The Latino princess has somehow managed to
sustain her A-List status without ever doing much at all... and The Back-Up Plan is hardly the comeback vehicle she needs.
After
years of dating, Zoe (Jennifer Lopez) has decided waiting for the right
one is taking too long. Determined to become a mother, she commits to a
plan, makes an appointment and decides to go it alone.
On the
day of her artificial insemination, Zoe meets Stan (Alex O'Loughlin) –
a man with real possibilities. Trying to nurture a budding relationship
and hide the early signs of pregnancy becomes a comedy of errors for
Zoe and creates confusing signals for Stan.
When Zoe nervously
reveals the reason for her unpredictable behavior, Stan commits fully
and says he is in. Never before has love seen a courtship where a wild
night of sex involves three in a bed - Stan, Zoe and the ever present
massive pregnancy pillow. Or, where "date night" consists of being the
“focal point” at a near stranger’s water birth which does for kiddie
pools what Jaws did for swimming in the ocean.
The
real pregnancy test comes when both of them realise they really don’t
know each other outside of hormonal chaos and birth preparations. With
the nine month clock ticking, both begin to experience cold feet.
Anyone
can fall in love, get married and have a baby but doing it backwards in
hyper-drive could be proof positive that they were made for each other.
Girls will love it - but don't be surprised if you see it in the discount bin at your local DVD shop.
