Editorial Review:
THREE BEST FRIENDS ARE FORCED TO GROW UP QUICKLY WHEN THEIR GIRLFRIENDS ALL BECOME PREGNANT AROUND THE SAME TIME.
My Baby's Daddy Reviews:
Has a positive message and a lot of heart. Cut this movie a break. 
2006-06-06 - My Baby's Daddy is a noble attempt at a comedy about fatherhood and responsibility. I can't beat up on this movie; it's not that Bad. My Baby's Daddy isn't the funniest movie, but at least its heart was in the right place. I give props to everyone for at least trying to make a film showing black men taking charge of their lives. Thanks to the heart and strong efforts of the cast and crew My Baby's Daddy overcomes its production obstacles and is overall a watchable entertaining movie. Mad props to Eddie Griffin and co for showing black men in a positive light and a balanced picture of black life in the ghetto. We need more efforts like this.
The story follows three lifelong Philadelphia friends who are just coasting through life. Coincidentally their three girlfriends get pregnant and have their babies at the same time and give birth at the same time. From there we have hi-jinx and humor as the men learn moderation and adjust their quest for their dreams to fit their changing lives. The story has a happy ending that will leave the viewer satisfied.
Production values on this movie are solid. The camera work is great and the editing is tight. Scenes transition into one another seamlessly, unlike some of those big budget action movies I've watched(*cough Daredevil, X2, X3, Cough). You feel like you're in the Philadelphia neighborhood hanging out with the fellas. Even though six writers worked on this screenplay the story is tight and cohesive with solid dialogue and a few funny lines.
The acting here is pretty good, everyone does make an effort to make their characters convincing. Eddie Griffin, Anthony Anderson and Michael Imperioli are solid as the three dads. Method Man is hilarious for the short time he's onscreen. Bai Ling is very good as Anderson's girlfriend. She steals most of the scenes she's in and is often funnier than the guys in some cases. John Amos makes a great cameo as Uncle Bernie.
My Baby's Daddy is worth a rental at best. If you want an interesting study of black men and relationships, pick up How U like me Now. (Yeah, I keep pushing that movie in every review, but this extremely underrated film is THAT good.)
great movie 
2006-01-08 - stop hatin this movie lol. my little brother played "Dang Ling"... and the only thing that bugs me is they spelled his name wrong.. it should be Bryan Ho. But nonetheless, this was a hilarious movie and i loved every minute of it. and no, im not just biased cuz my brother's in it. If u like comedy... get it. i reccomend it highly.
A Pretty Good Movie!
