This movie creates a series of questions and situations, shifts back and forth in time, and ends without answering anything. Terrible movie. The ending should have been more clear if it was an intended message concerning the situation.

I was struck immediately and deeply moved by the cinematography of "20 Weeks." The non-linear storytelling is poetic. I would like very much to read the screenplay, if it becomes available. The film is beautifully crafted. I applaud the filmmakers. Leena Pendharkar is a marvelous talent, and I look forward to seeing more of her work. I confess, I am a great admirer of Emily Schweber, whose casting is right on point. Anna Margaret Hollyman gives a heartfelt and generous performance. Exceptional, meaningful, heartbreaking, and impressive work.

20 weeks will give you all the feels... I saw it at the Fort Lauderdale Film Festival 21 weeks pregnant, about 1.5 weeks after my own scan (all good news)... but I was really taken on the journey and sobbed a lot ... in the theatre ...openly ...mostly in part to the powerful acting. The story is strong and unfolds beautifully. The two leads were phenomenal and real and raw. I highly recommend checking out this film ... I wasn't sure what to expect with the ending, and was not disappointed.

I saw this film at the LA Film Fest and was blown away. The performances are compelling and the plot emotional and complex. I left the theater and thought about the film for days afterward. To me, that is what makes a film great or not - did it change your opinion or help you see the world in a different way? This film definitely did that for me. Highly recommended!

I have a middle-aged male friend who wants a child. He doesn't actually like children. He wants a partner who is young and doesn't have children of her own already because he only wants his own child or children. He thinks that after the child/children reach 6 months of age, it's going to be "easy." This movie reminds me of him. It's that huge ball of denial that genetic anomalies don't happen - because they do. The scientific advances we have made in testing during gestation have been a blessing and a curse, because now we know what may or may not be developing, and sometimes difficult decisions have to be made. Everything can't be avoided. What do you do if your baby is born with something that wasn't detected, or can't be cured? Aren't every single one of us imperfect? Isn't it possible to love or care for another human being, even if it doesn't have perfectly formed fingers, which was merely the possibility in this movie? If my friend is ever in this dilemma in real life, I think the result would be the same as in this film.

Compelling and subtle. The premise is fantastic and the edit is excellent.

As many commenters will note, 20 WEEKS presents an original depiction of the challenges expectant couples can face. While that is no doubt a noteworthy aspect of the film, there's much more to it. What I found especially compelling was the subtle patriarchy gradually exhibited by the lead male character, and the way the female lead develops in response. 20 WEEKS is thus not only a film about the challenges of pregnancy but also about the challenges of maintaining a feminist/egalitarian relationship during pregnancy.

It's one of the movie I don't know why it film and what's the point of making it. Save ur time.

I saw the German film "24 Weeks", and the plot is exactly the same. I recommend you checking out that one as well.
