Critics Consensus

Plan B doesn't overplay its timely message -- and it doesn't have to, thanks to a sharp, funny script and the sparkling chemistry between its charming stars.

Autostraddle

Fans of Booksmart, Blockers, and Unpregnant will find much to like here. But while the movie touches each of those films in some way, it also crafts a voice and narrative of its own.

TIME Magazine

For all the ways in which Plan B is sometimes thunderously obvious, there's still a lot going on beneath the surface.

Associated Press

Pointed as the message of "Plan B" is, nothing supersedes just letting these two characters - traditionally bit players at best in high-school comedies - be themselves.

Rated: 3/4

Radio Times

The two leads are utterly charming and play off one another beautifully, with an appropriately hyperactive style, while the final act strikes just the right emotional notes.

Rated: 3/5

Plan B offers the counterpoint that this genre of film can live on, but that it maybe just needs some new perspectives through which these stories are being told.

Rated: 2.5/4

Polygon

Plan B works because it is able to organize a fun genre romp around a narrative structure that directly reflects the consequences of how we treat reproductive rights in this country. It’s a delicate balance, but one that works.

Amazing, will watch again. We need these low budget movies that take us along for ride. They just feel like a mini journey and they don't rely on cheap tricks.

Honestly might be the funniest movie I've seen in years, and I'm pretty hard to please. It's like a woman's version of Superbad but 10x as funny and more original. The sex scene itself is so anticlimactic and the entire movie is spent dealing with the aftermath of that. It's absolutely beautiful how it comes back around to family and love in the end. Looking forward to seeing these two actresses again and will watch anything the writers write. Very fresh take on good old coming of age.

Plan B is a delightful film that manages to make you laugh and also think just a little bit. It has an innate charm that is helped by two very good lead performances. Best friends Sunny and Lupe attend high school in South Dakota. One night at a party Sunny has a sexual encounter where the protection fails. The next morning they visit a chemist to buy the Plan B (morning after) pill. But the chemist won't sell it to them as they are under 18. So they plan a trip to Rapid City to visit a Planned Parenthood clinic. As you might guess nothing goes right on the road trip. So we get entwined in a funny road trip movie combined with some nuanced social commentary on how women's bodies are policed. It's a very winning film thanks to great performances from Kuhoo Verma and Victoria Moroles. They are very engaging as is this very well made film.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
