Excellent acting by all actors, dealing with real issues that many women facing now a days. It feels like a play mostly for the great writing. More power to women directors for creating films like this

Plot summary
Tina is a New York artist whose husband Wayne lives off her money and success. They invite her eight-months-pregnant art-school rival Karen, the perfect homemaker, and her power-hungry new-money husband Don to their Brooklyn loft and surprise them with Tina's new work-in-progress: a radical alternative to motherhood. Tina, expecting a child via surrogate, tells Karen that she couldn't stand having someone hanging off her breast all day. Karen retaliates that being pregnant makes her feel like a celebrity and that she's sorry for people who don't have children. When the sensuous, non-traditional surrogate Kiki arrives, the truth comes out, and the patriarchy fights to hang on by its teeth, and a tough debate breaks out between ex-girlfriends, in which everyone reveals secrets and tries to defend their opinions about surrogate motherhood.

Maybe people just want to be happy
At the core of this movie is a struggle between people's ideas about the world and their actual application. At the same time, it is asking what do we as human beings really want? And what does that cost? Sure, something may sound good, but will it make you happy? As a man, I chose to watch this movie without trying to take a side, but there where interesting points made by both sides. There was also an interesting male perspective presented in the film. The music and the acting is fantastic. And even though I thought she was underutilized, Anna Camp rocked the ditzy blonde who is actually kind of deep. A word of warning This movie is more of a slow burn, and I am not going to lie; the first half is a little over the top and kind of drags. But once Anna Camp hits the screen, the slow burn really pays off. Also, the line "This is why every one hate liberals" is perfect as it shows the problems with both extreme progressives and liberal ideas in general. Plus, Anna Camp in Daisy Dukes is always a win.
Excellent acting but a hugely depressing movie
I've seen all of the actors in other movies before and I wasn't disappointed to see them now, but I cannot get by the fact that everyone in this movie was completely selfish. I watch movies to escape real life, the last thing I need to see is people being horrible to each other and claiming to actually love them while doing it. What a depressing state if this is how Hollywood sees us
