A logically flawed but still brilliant movie
Surrogacy is a very dramatic subject. Except for a few obvious logical loopholes, the whole film is generally well shot and has suspense. The three major logical loopholes are: first, if you know that this female lunatic will kill, why not call the police and go to the lake house to catch her, but to catch her yourself? Second, there is only one egg. When picking a surrogate mother, the lawyer didn't do a serious background check? Third, why did the female lunatic go to the male...

It's pretty. I generally don't pay much attention to black actors (I don't know how to call them), they all look alike and are difficult to identify. But the male and female protagonists in this film are really good. The male and female protagonists all look particularly pleasing to the eye and are particularly well matched. The male protagonist is decent. Such a male protagonist is just like a man. He doesn't show off, and he doesn't pretend to be affectionate. I liked it at first sight....

First of all, I have to say that this is a movie starring pure black people, and it is not ugly.
The subject of surrogacy is sensitive in China, but it seems that there is no problem in the United States.
If it is brought to China, this movie seems to be a bit of a warning, that is: surrogacy is risky!
When it comes to surrogacy alone, in an environment where cooking is considered illegal in China, the risks are not little by little. Surrogacy and surrogacy are all...By Tess 2022-09-17 17:19:43

American couples begging for a child to bring wolves into the house, and their obsession with having a son is so deep that Chinese couples should also be resigned to the disadvantage? Surrogacy changes their...

What started out as an ethical film slowly turned into a thriller. You can't predict the life background of the people you're dealing with, but stop your losses immediately when you see something wrong, no matter how big the sunk costs are. Otherwise there is a greater loss waiting for you. The ethical risks of surrogacy require more...

Mike Mitchell: Did you know that you have their only embryo?
Anna Walsh: It's... a baby now.
Mike Mitchell: They don't have it! In the eyes of the law, since it's inside of you, it belongs to us. We can decide to keep it for ourselves any time we want.
Anna Walsh: But... I-I thought...
Mike Mitchell: Don't think. I think, baby. I'm the brains on this. You're just the uterus.

Mike Mitchell: You're into him.
[Mike moves to sit next to Anna, whispering in her ear]
Mike Mitchell: What do you think is going to happen? Hmm? You'll end up happily ever after with him in that big house? He doesn't care about you.
[Mike roughly grabs Anna's hair]
Mike Mitchell: You are like a cow to him.

Laura Taylor: [Laura rushes into the OB/GYN's office, visibly upset at having missed the appointment to find out the baby's gender] I had it in my schedule as 2:00.
John Taylor: Maybe you just entered it wrong.
Laura Taylor: No, I didn't enter it wrong! I... Damn it, I-I know I didn't! Someone changed it in my phone! I know that I put it in right! I booked my flights around it, I know that I did! Damn it!
John Taylor: Stop, please.
Laura Taylor: [Laura and John talk privately in the hallway] This is the only time I'm ever going to be able to do this.
John Taylor: It's alright. Don't worry about it.
Anna Walsh: [Ana gets dressed in the exam room, glancing up when she notices John and Laura talking]
John Taylor: Let's just go somewhere. Lunch.
Laura Taylor: I can't. I left a client at the airport. I have to go back.
[Laura exits]
Anna Walsh: [Having silently observed Laura walking away from John inside the exam room, Ana smiles to herself]
