## Description

Product Description Jennifer Lopez stars as Zoe, a single New Yorker who dreams about meeting Mr. Right, having a baby and living happily ever after. But after a string of Mr. Wrongs, Zoe commits to her back-up plan: to take on motherhood alone. Zoe's plan proves far from foolproof when moments after her procedure she's swept up into a whirlwind romance with Stan (Alex O'Loughlin), the man of her dreams. Can Zoe hide her pregnancy until Stan is ready for the truth? Or will the truth send him packing? The Back-Up Plan is a hilarious romantic comedy about courtship, love, marriage and parenthood - but not necessarily in that order! desertcart.co.uk Review Jennifer Lopez and Aussie heartthrob Alex O'Loughlin are pitch-perfect foils in the romantic comedy The Back-up Plan--a film that's as light as the foam on a root-beer float, but which manages to be both romantic and very funny. Lopez, after a long absence from the big screen, is a pleasure to watch--an accomplished (and underrated) comedian who can spar and spark with the best of her peers, and better than most. Lopez's chemistry with the dreamy O'Loughlin will engage viewers completely. Lopez plays Zoe, a smart woman whose dating life has been dismal--and who finally decides to become a single mum so she can achieve at least the motherhood she's always desired. As fate would have it, she meets Mr. Perfect (or Mr. Close To It), O'Loughlin's Stan, on the very day she visits the fertility clinic and becomes pregnant with twins. The early stages of their courtship involve Zoe's increasingly desperate measures to conceal her growing belly. By the time she confesses her condition, Stan is smitten--but with hormones on both sides roiling, and reality about to set in as the birth approaches, both Zoe and Stan get cold feet. If the plot of The Back-up Plan is a bit predictable, the flinty performances of both Lopez and O'Loughlin keep the viewer utterly engaged. Supporting actors Eric Christian Olsen, as Zoe's best guy pal, and the lovely and hilarious Michaela Watkins (The New Adventures of Old Christine) turn in terrific performances, too, and cameos by veterans including Albert Klein (as Zoe's hyperenthusiastic doctor), Tom Bosley, and Linda Lavin round out the excellent acting ensemble. The Back-up Plan also features an engaging soundtrack with a danceable tune by Lopez, "What Is Love?" and memorable songs by Colbie Caillat, India Arie, and more. The Back-up Plan shows that love may not always go according to plan--OK, it never does--but it's worth the ride, however the heart ultimately gets there. --A.T.

Review: Great movie - I wasn't sure about this film, I like Jennifer Lopez but didn't really know much about Alex O'Loughlin then I saw him in the updated Hawaii Five-O and was hooked. It is one of the best films I have watched in ages I couldn't take my eyes off the screen. Besides telling a story it was so funny I laughed most of the way through. Both actors did a great job and it was nice to watch a great film without the usual profanity, I hope they make a Back-Up Plan II really soon. I highly recommend.
Review: WOW - I love this film. Big fan of Jennifer and even bigger fan of Alex. It is funny, romantic and sad but always manages to cheer me up when feeling a bit down. Love the film. Well worth the money.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love it!!
*by D***I on 24 January 2013*

I love the backup plan, i watched it once when it was on sky and loved it then. I know that this film has had some bed reviews especially about the awkwardness of it, but personally i think that gives it its charm. J-Lo i think in this is funny and entertaining and really portrays her character well. Alex O'Loughlin (Stan) is very nice, i first came across him in the hit tv show HAWAII 5-0 (something else i recommend highly) and in this he played it well, its clear that the characters have a connection and the fact that he's a bit of a dick makes it funny and entertaining, definitely NOT a waste of money.
