Amy Schumer is the star of the new Netflix movie Kinda Pregnant, which follows a woman called Lainey who, jealous of her friend's pregnancy, wears a fake baby bump then accidentally meets the new love of her life. The only issue is that he thinks that she is pregnant.
Taking to X, formerly known as Twitter to discuss, fans have a somewhat mixed opinion on the show, with one posting: "Insensitively handling its material and absolutely wasting its ensemble, #KindaPregnant is kinda the worst film of 2025 thus far," while another person added: "#KindaPregnant is incredibly depressing to watch, how did this get greenlit?"

A third person added: "#kindapregnant is a kinda disappointing Netflix film, because of unfunny dialogues and characterization. Amy Schumer's presence is kinda failing, I guess. This movie is not a good start to this month of love."
However, others were complimentary of the latest Netflix offering, with one sharing: "#KindaPregnant is probably one of the more unhinged movies I've seen lately, lol ... I think it has good intentions, and the romance part is good, but the rest is off the rails a bit."
Another person wrote: "Just watched Kinda Pregnant on Netflix and it’s brilliant! So funny! Highly recommend," while a third posted: "If you’re having a bad day watch kinda pregnant. I’ve been cracking up right from the first scene."
