Description: The writer and director of The 40-year-old Virgin delivers another a hilarious hit comedy!
They say that opposites attract. Well, for slacker Ben (Seth Rogen) and career girl Alison (Katherine Heigl), that's certainly the case - at least for one intoxicated evening. Two months and several pregnancy tests later, Ben and Alison go through a hysterically funny, anxious and heartwarming journey that leads to huge laughs in the most outrageous comedy of the year!
Amazon.com:
Unwanted pregnancy might sound like a risky subject for slapstick comedy, but Knocked Up is from writer-director Judd Apatow--so we are in the hands of a man who likes to push things. And like Apatow's predecessor, The 40-Year-Old Virgin, Knocked Up is a shaggy crowd-pleaser, a comedy strewn with vulgarity but with a sweet heart at its center. A one-night stand between the utterly mismatched Ben (Seth Rogen, his first starring role) and Alison (Katherine Heigl) results in said pregnancy, and the two people reunite for mutual support--even though they barely know each other. Ben's a slob who lives with four other guys, all of whom share the same stunted approach to maturity; Alison is a new on-air personality at the E! channel. That these two eventually develop a shared understanding and affection is perhaps the movie's biggest stretch (some of the male-humor jokes amongst the guys are idiotic enough to test anybody's hope of civilizing them).
Rogen and Heigl don't really jump off the screen, but, to be fair, the movie frequently needs them to play straight while the supporting cast cuts up. Virgin vets Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd are around to supply some humor, as Alison's sister and brother-in-law, and the four idiots who live with Ben (Jay Baruchel, Jonah Hill, Jason Siegel, and Martin Starr) are in their own zone of sophomoric bad taste. Still, by 40-Year-Old Virgin standards, this movie doesn't explode, and it sometimes feels ramshackle to the point of not being thought out. Apatow's indulgence of actors creates some fine moments (Paul Rudd seems to have most of them), but it can also make a movie feel flabby, and this one is overlong by the length of a belly. --Robert Horton
Customer Reviews Average Rating:  Rating: - Every reason to bang a HOT drunk chick This movie has its Lame ups and downs, but DAMN it's fun and better YET FUNNY....
Rating: - It's Judd Apatow...what do you expect? How is it possible that so many people are clueless about what a Judd Apatow movie entails? Scores of these reviews condemn this movie for being too crass, offensive, etc., as if they were expecting a Billy Wilder romp instead of a movie made in another century. This is the guy who has given us a wealth of movies which all tap extensively if not exclusively into the lowbrow, locker room, sophomoric comedic vein that is ala mode. Why would you think this offering would be any different? That ... Read More
Rating: - Pathetic, vulgar, mindless filth If you are in the 13-16 year old age group (or never progressed mentally past said stage) and love toilet humor and degradation of both sexes, this is the movie for you! I fervently hope you don't live near me.
Rating: - Crude and Disappointing If you like stupid, inane, and bad language, you will love this movie. The movie is boring with a lot of ugly (inside) people.
Rating: - That was stupid This movie was ridiculous and extremely sexiest.One of the worst things about this movie is that even though many (if not all) of the male characters constantly refer to women by derogatory names like "bitch" and "ho",just to name a few, and none of the female characters seem to mind much. Not to mention there's this mentality that all the slackers have where they think women are only around to orally please them. This movie makes you lose faith in men.Another annoying aspect of the movie was ... Read More
