Unplanned will make you writhe in agony over how such an ugly, malicious and potentially dangerous piece of religious and political propaganda could have made its way into this world.

Writer-directors Chuck Konzelman and Cary Solomon spend more time making their talking points than developing their characters, who exist merely to make their arguments.

One wonders why Unplanned, which resembles a basic cable television movie in its mediocre production values and subpar performances, was made.

The first R-rated film to be distributed by Pure Flix Entertainment.
