The Babymakers Reviews
Like Tommy's confused sperm, The Babymakers just goes in circles with no real direction before dying a lonely unfunny death.

For the creators of "Super Troopers" and "Beerfest," two comedies with devoted followings, "The Babymakers" is a pretty serious setback.

| Original Score: C | Jan 22, 2013
Wants to appeal to the fan base of Broken Lizard desperately, but also wants to service the audience that loves movies from Garry Marshall or Rob Reiner...

The screenwriters started with a great premise and then ran out of ideas, abandoning the more risky, inventive procreation comedy for corny slapstick
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 2, 2012
What starts as an insightful, bracingly straight-spoken comedy about infertility falls apart in the final act when it diverts into a wacky, under-developed adventure
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 2, 2012
A romcom that fumbles for heart in the gutter, and finds only glib gags.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Oct 1, 2012
Some funny moments but not many, despite decent playing from Mann and Schneider.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Sep 28, 2012
It actually gets more stupid the more you think about it.
| Original Score: 1/5 | Sep 27, 2012
The plot is content to stay at surface level, never truly working for big laughs when easy ones can be grasped instead.
| Original Score: 2/4 | Sep 12, 2012
Made me laugh, made me care and didn't insult my intelligence. It's almost as fun as making a baby yourself.
| Original Score: 8.5/10 | Aug 21, 2012
A film of limited effort, slowly sealing off its potential the longer it lingers on lackluster comedy in a manner that's become habitual to Chandrasekhar and his cronies.
| Original Score: D+ | Aug 16, 2012
In short, the movie's not funny enough or serious-minded enough to warrant 95 minutes of your time.
| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Aug 11, 2012
Preposterous, inane and silly, but outrageously funny.
| Original Score: 6.01/10 | Aug 7, 2012
The sole function served by this motion picture is to illustrate how not to frame jokes in movies.
| Original Score: 1/4 | Aug 5, 2012
The only moments where The Babymakers provides any kind of comic lift come when talented improvisers like Faxon, Heffernan, Chandrasekhar and Aisha Tyler clearly go off-book and noodle their way into something that's actually amusing.

'The Babymakers' is so uninspired it's depressing.
| Original Score: D | Aug 3, 2012
Crude, mostly unimaginative comedy is meant for adults.
| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 3, 2012
