When successful child psychologist and one-time playboy Samuel Faulkner (Hugh Grant) hears that his girlfriend, Rebecca (Julianne Moore), is pregnant, he panics. As Faulkner's crippling fear of commitment sets in, Rebecca decides to leave him. Realizing he wants to spend his life with her, Faulkner struggles to come to terms with the gravity of impending fatherhood -- a struggle helped in no way by the antics of Rebecca's bumbling obstetrician, Eastern-Bloc refugee Dr. Kosevich (Robin Williams).

Critics Consensus

Nine Months finds writer-director Chris Columbus playing to his worst comedic instincts -- and relying far too heavily on the trademark tics of his miscast leading man.

Geoff Brown

Times (UK)

Any charm he might possess has been squeezed out by the Hollywood machine, and the little shots of Hugh rollerblading, or Hugh getting his ears pierced, are scarcely enough to create new endearments.

Financial Times

[Grant's] mannerisms were endearing in Four Weddings And A Funeral. They are more of an endurance now.

[Nine Months] threatens to turn an interesting actor into a self-parodying commodity.

Bogged down by slapstick, unfunny humour and, besides a few heartwarming moments, lacking in sentiment, "Nine Months" is predictable and forgettable despite its stellar cast.
