Robert Abele Los Angeles Times What lifts Gayby above its sitcom trappings is its emotional generosity and easy warmth, the sense that characters are defined by -- and made funny through -- their aspirations, not their way with a one-liner. Rated: 4/5 Nov 8, 2012 Full Review Monica Castillo Paste Magazine The good in Gayby easily outweighs the awkward staging and strained gags. Rated: 6.9/10 Oct 26, 2012 Full Review Sara Stewart New York Post Harris, a talented comic actress who looks more like a real person than a Hollywood facsimile of one, makes every scene she's in shine. Rated: 3/4 Oct 12, 2012 Full Review Michael Cuby them. Full of uproarious twists... Sep 30, 2022 Full Review David Noh Film Journal International Your enjoyment of this baby-obsessed queer farce will depend largely upon your tolerance for seeing yet another group of gay urbanites incessantly sniping about it all. Oct 12, 2012 Full Review Brian Juergens AfterElton.com A fresh, breezy take on modern gay life and platonic love delivered with disarming enthusiasm and genuine wit. Rated: 8/10 Oct 10, 2012 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It was cute, but kinda boring and very stereotypical. I liked that the main character(s) were pretty relatable and human, though. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A sweet and fun little movie!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 07/02/18 Full Review Audience Member Way funnier than I thought it was going to be. I love the main actress in it. She was hilarious! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I adored this little movie. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/03/23 Full Review Audience Member A funny film about a gay man and his friend who decide to have a baby. The supporting characters are also a hoot Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Gayby was one heck of a comedy. Just the premise alone, a women wanting to have a kid with her gay best friend, is comical enough. Throw in a funny supporting cast and some hilarious scenes and you have an above average comedy. Some of the scenes were a little bland but there were plenty of laughs throughout and by the heart warming ending it made for a good movie. This one may not be on your Netflix radar but if you want a different, funny topic that a movie is based around, this one should satisfy your funny bone.
