October Baby Ratings & Reviews
Austin Chronicle
Marjorie Baumgarten
The filmmaking is lugubrious and heavy-handed, and the dramatic arc stagnant and airless.
Boston Globe
Mark Feeney
"October Baby" looks and feels like a Lifetime movie waiting not to happen.
Common Sense Media
Renee Schonfeld
Faith-based drama about adoption, abortion, forgiveness.
jackiekcooper.com
Jackie K. Cooper
A definitely pro-life story that will anger those who see no redeeming aspect for this position. For those who do agree with the premise this will be a cause for celebration.
Cinemalogue
Todd Jorgenson
Heavy-handed proselytizing trumps genuine emotional impact.
Salon.com
Andrew O'Hehir
The odds that this has happened in the real world approach those of being struck by lightning and eaten by a shark at the same time. With a winning lottery ticket tucked in your swimsuit.
Decent Films
Steven D. Greydanus
Avoids the outright preachiness of the Sherwood Productions films … certainly a good-looking film … too much tell and not enough show.
The Hollywood Reporter
Frank Scheck
[An] earnest, faith-based drama, which lacks sufficient entertainment value to make its message go down more palatably.
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Joe Williams
Trafficking in 2-D morality and unlikely to be seen by the unconverted, "October Baby" would have been better off as a bumper sticker.
Detroit News
Tom Long
"October Baby" doesn't even meet the standards of decent propaganda. It is, in fact, indecent propaganda.
New York Post
Kyle Smith
"October Baby" may be well-intentioned, but it's as obvious and inert as a spoonful of mashed potatoes.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
Extended scenes are dominated by heavy dialogue, while the lighter moments are relegated to montages of prancing across a beach, for example, which simply aren't that effective at buoying the drama.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
Like the bloodied placards brandished by demonstrators outside women's health clinics, the film communicates in the language of guilt and fear.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
A film whose poignancy is hard to deny whatever side of the abortion debate you fall on.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
Directors Andrew and Jon Erwin, who also contributed to the story, rarely let their film get didactic, instead going for a more low-key approach.
Variety
Joe Leydon
Newcomer Rachel Hendrix grabs attention and sustains sympathy as a lovely yet troubled 19-year-old student determined to unlock the secrets of her past.
AV Club
Alison Willmore
This isn't a movie; this is propaganda for the already converted.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
The film as a whole is amateurish and ungainly, can't find a consistent tone, is too long, is overladen with music that tries to paraphrase the story and is photographed with too many beauty shots that slow the progress.
Village Voice
Michelle Orange
A slick piece of pro-life propaganda, it has relatively luxe production values, painfully earnest performances, and a drippy "inspirational" score.
