Knocked Up Reviews: Average movie with some funny moments  2008-08-19 - This movie was not quite as good as 40-Year Old Virgin, in my eyes, because of too many attempts at slapstick humor. Apatow's films could do with more subtle and clever humor.
However, I do think that this is a good flick to see if you're looking for some goofy humor and have some time on your hands.
average  2008-08-17 - Knocked Up is the kind of comedy that's almost pointless. The characters talk, and yet you don't care about anything they say. They try to be funny, and you never laugh. You try to get some kind of interesting story out of what's taking place, and even though you can do it, you wonder if you wasted your time even bothering. That's what Knocked Up is all about.
lighten up  2008-08-17 - i read the negative reviews and despite my cynicism (sp?) i say remember. this is a MOVIE about an idealized situation that film viewers might find entertaining and endearing. like , you know, a happy ending? real life doesn't work like this but who cares. i found the movie funny and oddly touching. stoner goof gets lucky and shows his true mettle to a hot, deep chick, who sees his true worth. pure fantasy but wow. IT'S A GODDAMN MOVIE YOU SAPS.
i thought it was great
Laughed my butt off  2008-08-02 - I saw this movie again a couple of days ago. Laughed my butt off. Stupid funny, but also kind of charming and realistic in some ways. For all those negative reviewer, relax, don't expect an oscar winning movie about the meaning of life and creation...you'll find you self laughing and actually relating to the characters.
"Debbie is a freak of nature!!"  2008-07-29 - A solid funny comedy full of sex, lust, jokes and "plenty" of nudity.
Ben is your typical "loser" who meets Alison in a bar. They hook up at her place, have sex and without a condom, enjoy themselves.
She had her job, her looks and other things going for her when she found out that Ben didn't use a condom when she specifically asked him to.
Right before the act, Ben takes the almost-on condom off because there was a misinterpretation between the two, aka a broken message. She gets pregnant and emotional once she finds out.
The characters are funny and many, attractive. The dialogue wasn't too shabby but they swear a lot. Especially the use of the "F-word".
But if it's a comedy you're after that's kinda tacky, sex-wise, then by all means. It's funny, it's somewhat realistic (for once) and the characters are half way decent.
I actually felt something for them.
3.75 stars.
