This move was both educational and entertaining. Involves this deeply emotional issue of our time. Gently conveys the difficult dilemna presented to women and society. Definitely PRO-Life. Great life lessons for teenagers both boys and girls ! Highlights the need for forgiveness.

Washington Post
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. Full Review

There are few issues more bitterly divisive than abortion, with emotions and rhetoric running at fever pitch. October Baby is a faith-based movie that resides staunchly in the pro-life camp. Yet 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. Full Review

The Hollywood Reporter
The filmmakers, longtime music video veterans, have delivered a technically polished production that belies the film's low budget. They've also elicited mostly strong performances. Full Review
Gary Goldstein
Los Angeles Times
A film whose poignancy is hard to deny whatever side of the abortion debate you fall on. Full Review
Jeannette Catsoulis
The New York Times
Not even a dewy heroine and a youth-friendly vibe can disguise the essential ugliness at its core: like the bloodied placards brandished by demonstrators outside women's health clinics, the film communicates in the language of guilt and fear. Full Review
