Hilarious, funny, well written, beautifully acted, and very credible film. Speaking as a Vermonter, but still considered by native Vermonters after 41 yrs. of residence here, a 'flatlander', I cannot tell you how true to life this film is. Life is different here. You choose this life style, and it grows on you. But life is very different here. And the screen writer for, "Baby Boom" has it down pat. Extremely well written, and superbly acted by all the characters in the film, "Baby Boom" is a howling success. Keaton, Sam Shepard, and baby are well casted. The scene where Keaton goes to the local doctor for a physical is one of the funniest scenes on film. "Baby Boom" is full of pathos, warm humor, deep feelings, and life affirming spirit. It is a jewel of a film in a market of hi-tech mediocrity. Buy it, and then, cherish it. Love, Love, Love "Baby Boom".Vollständige Rezension lesen
With the possibility that our next commander in chief may be of the female persuasion ( a woman's place is everywhere ! ) This movie reflects how far women have come , The story is fresh and truly enjoyable . Diane Keaton (My Favorite) is astounding , she completely captures the character of JC as a driven career woman who's life is turned upside down with the arrival of a baby inheritance . The twins who portray "Elizabeth" are just too precious for words , how could JC ever think of putting this -cute as a button- child up for adoption , the prospective couple in that scene just cracked me up ... "Fern" ?? living in Duluth ?? oh no , no, no !!, JC made the right decision and so her journey began . This film is highly recommended , well written, superb cast . The final scene with JC sitting by the window of her country home with Elizabeth on her lap and picking a flower from the flower bed always bring's tears to my eyes , that pure peaceful moment is movie magic !

Life is full of change and we must adapt... And so does Diane Keaton, as she "inherits" an unexpected gift from a distant relative and takes a bold step - out on a limb. She finds her footing and ultimately redefining her priorities. In this time of change it is as timely a story as any... Love Keaton's comedic timing and her believable metamorphosis from one life phase to another. I decided I needed this for my own DVD collection b/c no matter how many times I have seen it - it is still funny and has great charm. moonpies
Highly entertaining, light hearted, charming depiction of women's place in the workplace of the 1980's and 1990's, as well as how motherhood alters the views of a professional female. Wonderful cast, excellent acting, beautiful story with a HAPPY ending! I recommend that this film be enjoyed!

This movie was about J.C. Wyatt a woman who was an executive living in the big city of New York. Even though she was extremely self-sufficient and successful she never thought she would inherit a baby from a cousin she hadn't seen in years. At first she thought about giving up Elizabeth but she soon grew attached to her and motherhood took over. The owner where she worked soon found her to be consumed with being a mother and was no longer the “tiger lady” who got things done, he gave her account to an ambitious, calculative and greedy young man she was mentoring. J.C. Wyatt quit the company and moved to Vermont with Elizabeth where she bought a house. What started out as a problem turned out to be the best thing she could've done when living in the country was something she grew to love. She had the last laugh when she became an entrepreneur and no longer needed to rely on someone looking over her. I bought this movie because I've seen it before and wanted to own it. This is a wonderful movie for the entire family to be seen over and over again. I would definitely recommend it as part of your collection. Things are never what they seem and though some people think that money and prestige is everything in life, J.C. Wyatt found tranquility, peace of mind and love living somewhere she probably never dreamed of.Vollständige Rezension lesen
