It's lightweight and reasonable likeable, but there's nothing special about this predictable rom com in which a single mother finds her son's sperm donor and then deliberates on the options that life offers her

For those not willing to buy into mandatory motherhood, there are still a few roles left for women here and there, as dragons ladies, sluts and psychos.

Ultimately feels as generic as its title.

[A] flat, post-feminist cocktail of remixed cliches.

An earnest cast of talented actors can’t save this well-meaning but torturously banal message movie about parental responsibility from poor writing, elementary plotting and pedestrian direction.

Eartha Kitt stands out in this otherwise uneventful romantic comedy.

The film falters on many fronts, including truly wooden performances and a thoroughly uninteresting heroine.

Whatever positive, life-affirming story the filmmakers meant to present gets lost amid a crowd of repugnant people.

Entertaining enough as a mildly amusing diversion, even if it might deliver a dubious message to impressionable teenage girls torn between dating a nerdy nice guy and a loser without much of a future.

Turning its back to the feminist movement, And Then Came Love believes to the bottom of its execrable core that single mothers should go the way of the dodo bird.
