It's probably quite fitting that I watched this on Valentine's Day...
Like leaving a doctor's appointment with a happy stain in your pants, Ninjababy is an unusually fun examination of contemporary ailments.
The story of a millennial party girl who finds out she's very pregnant, Ninjababy is a refreshing change from the recent glut of "quirky young woman" films that are basically, "I'm not like other rom-coms, I'm cool". Instead of focusing on how all a woman needs is the right man to complete her, Ninjababy is about all the things a woman doesn't need to complete her.
Anchored by Kristine Kujath Thorp's strong performance, Ninjababy is funny, cute and whole heartedly feminist.

this film manages to deal with very important issues such as unwanted motherhood, abortion, adoption and entry into the adult world, with remarkable sensitivity and irony. I really appreciated the combination of the animated drawings within of the film. An excellent comedy which however makes us reflect on these themes, in a slightly different way
