Baby Mamma (2008)

Tina Fay and Amy Pohler, whose comic abilities have long been on display on SNL and other TV forums, have at last made a movie together. The basic premise of an uptight business woman who hires a ‘white trash’ girl to be her surrogate for pregnancy, is a natural fit for these two, though it could have been awful under lesser hands. A good, solid comedy, with both buddy picture and romantic elements (Greg Keaner proving a great casting choice as Fay’s love interest), and a fun supporting part for Steve Martin. Well handeld. 3 ½ out 5.
