| IndieWireKate ErblandBolstered by winning, real performances from its leads, Unpregnant will delight as much as it stings, a sterling reminder of how many stories about this very subject are still demanding to be told. |
| Entertainment WeeklyLeah GreenblattRichardson and Ferreira have a sweet, sharp chemistry: one the type-A perfectionist trying desperately to keep it together, the other a hedonist in green fun fur whose outrageous exterior masks a deeper hurt. |
| RogerEbert.comMatt Zoller SeitzThe film's solid grounding in friendship and comic teamwork carries the day. Unpregnant becomes more affecting as it goes along thanks to the sincere, committed, and mostly unaffected lead performances by Richardson and Ferreira. |
| VarietyAmy NicholsonIt’s as comforting as a prescription drug commercial, which could send some parents into a conniption. But Unpregnant advocates loudest for allowing young women the space to make their own choices — and that they have friends, longtime or newfound, willing to help when they stumble. |
| The New York TimesNatalia WinkelmanIts driving force may seem topical, but the story’s heart is timeless: the harmony between longtime friends, and Veronica and Bailey throw themselves into even the most fraught situations with giddy enthusiasm. |
| TimeStephanie ZacharekUnpregnant is ultimately about the people who have our backs when the rest of the world seems to be pushing against us — in other words, the families we choose for ourselves. |
| Slant MagazineMark JenkinsIts few nutty ideas demonstrate how little distance Unpregnant manages to put between itself and a standard high-school comedy. |
| The Hollywood ReporterInkoo KangLargely fueled by Richardson and Ferreira’s charisma and chemistry, Unpregnant is an amiable if uneven ride. |
| Screen RantMolly FreemanUnpregnant delivers a fun and entertaining road trip comedy about female friendship and abortion, with compelling performances from its two leads. |
| The GuardianBenjamin LeeIt’s an uneven ride, rocky in places, but it’s one that’s also unquestionably worthwhile, a progressive, witty and timely way of reminding many of us how antiquated women’s healthcare still is while also alerting a younger audience that there’s more to the teen movie than Netflix. |
