It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.
There's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
Judd Apatow, while not always good at making comedies, excels in "Knocked Up" at making honest humor blend with a warm heart. Seth Rogen is a perfect comedic lead as the goofy bum he's use to playing. Rogen is the tie of actor who we feel like we're friend with during the film, not just another character on the screen. He has the energy, charisma, and natural humor to make us want to get beer and pizza with him and talk about movies with. Jonah Hill as his friend is by far the best of the film. He's not a ver important part of the film, but every time he enters the humor rises. This is a feel-good comedy with consistent humor that never fails to deliver the laughs.
First of all, if it involves Seth Rogen, I'll most likely love it. Absolutely hilarious movie with happy and sad moments that actually feel real. If you don't enjoy this movie, even just a little bit, you are a very negative individual. lol I recommend this movie to everyone and their mothers.
If you've seen any of Seth Rogen's movies, then you should know that he always plays a laid-back goof-off whose life revolves around getting high. Judd Apatow's "Knocked Up" is no exception. I thought that the funniest scenes were the ones where Katherine Heigl's go-getter meets Seth Rogen's slacker friends. This story of an unexpected pregnancy makes no pretense about being completely silly.As to Heigl's claims that the movie was sexist, I can see where she's coming from. According to the movie, men are degenerate morons who want to sit around getting stoned, while women are sexy, ambitious types who snap easily. There's no shortage of movies that depict that, and I wouldn't say that "Knocked Up" casts aspersions on anyone.The main point to take is that Seth Rogen revels in low culture. You can bet money that his next movie will cast him as a stoner who talks about sexual organs and bodily functions all day. As for the widespread dislike of Katherine Heigl, it seems misplaced. She strikes me as an obnoxious individual, but is she really a worse person than, say, the Koch brothers? I liked "Knocked Up", but it won't be for everyone.
Anyone who gives this movie a bad rating is a Mormon, I swear to you. I hate being prejudice like that, but there are just some very unhappy, terrified people in this world.I am frustrated. I believe this is by far the best DRAMODY in the history of cinema. (Also I'm majoring in filmmaking, so am very into the art of it.) If you are the church-going, one track mind type, and you live your life being offended by every sex reference you hear, this is not the movie for you. I was raised in a very intelligent, loving family of doctors and credential college and high school teachers. I have been taught, PEACE, love, and human nature by some very smart people that I guarantee you are far from anything close to the devil. Being written by Utah Entertainment, I'm sure many Mormons have seen this movie and are the ones giving it bad reviews, because of it's raunchiness. DO NOT GET THE WRONG IDEA ABOUT THESE LOW REVIEWS, unless of course you are one of those people. If you understand why South Park is so genius, as my family does, you will love this movie. (I do happen to also know some people who don't care for South Park who loved this film.) I would say this film would be loved by ages 15-75 (yes my Grandma liked this movie, a lot.) You would pretty much have to be someone who is totally freaked out about the world and think you were going to hell if you like a movie with premarital sex, drugs, and vulgar language in order to be turned off by this film. I AM TELLING YOU I could list two dozen very intelligent people that loved this movie. These are people who have very good paying jobs, who are happy, peaceful, and high on life; not burnouts or delinquent teenagers. The people who do not understand this film are strictly those who are afraid of the world, which I'm sure you've come across plenty of them. They are the types of people who are 'happy' but when you get to know them, they're not really happy, they're terrified. This is a very well written, intelligent piece of art. I promise it will bring you many laughs, and a warmed heart. This is a beautiful portrait of life, love, laughter, friendship, and everything in between. Don't even pay attention to the low ratings/reviews, watch the movie; it's very raunchy so of course there's those people who will be offended. If you are one of those people, then don't watch it. But we don't need your one star reviews just because you don't have a complete life. This movie is praised by many who understand the beauty of life in a whole.
