This is a good movie about women and the workplace, it has an excellent cast, and it's funny too. I really liked this movie, and I highly recommend it.
Diane is a busy business woman who's life is turned upside down when a baby comes along. She retires to the country where she has a bottomless pit of a house. She falls for a vet. She makes baby food which she sells across the country. Funny movie.
80's films, comedies in particular, seem to be exempt from having to make and sense and be anywhere near plausible, in fact many are all the better for it. Not Baby Boom though, Baby Boom is absolute crap, is insulting and boarders on child abuse (any child having to spend longer... read more

So-so comedy with Keaton still straining to keep up with her post-Woody Allen career.
A wonderful performance from Diane Keaton pulls the movie through.
Comedy starring Diane Keaton about a Yuppie who tries to have it all in life. Full Review

Mildly cute chick flick with a great performance by Sam Shepherd.
