A research scientist becomes the world's first pregnant man in order to test a drug he and a colleague have designed for expectant women. To carry out the trial, he has an embryo implant, believing that he will only carry the baby for three months – hardly expecting to face the prospect of giving birth.

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

If for nothing else, then you should watch this because this is "the movie where the guy is pregnant", but I'm not sure we need a reboot: one is probably enough.

It helps that this is a good movie with a great cast. I felt bad they made Danny Devito run so much, but Arnold is great as a pregnant man, and sometimes a woman, and Emma Thompson does a wonderful absent-minded professor.

It's a unique premise, it's a good premise, and for a comedy without lasers, aliens, or explosions, there is a lot of excitement.

Give it a watch, it's all about the execution that makes this one great.
