Critics consensus

“Jennifer Lopez is as appealing as ever, but The Back-Up Plan smothers its star with unrelatable characters and a predictable plot.”

Saunters along as if all concerned had decided that imagination and flair were either unnecessary or impossible.

Jennifer Lopez is famous for one reason only. And odds are, that's where she found the script for The Back-up Plan.

A romcom that can't be called "formulaic" without insulting formulas everywhere.

The Back-Up Plan is inoffensive but inert. [Full review in Spanish]
