Bastardly Run-on Sentence Review: Knocked Up
Saturday, June 2nd, 2007 late in the damn evening, after tantric sex
At the screening of Knocked Up at the Arclight in Hollywood, I was excited to see the movie, after all it was directed by Judd Apatow the guy behind 40 Year Old Virgin, but my date and I got a little worried when we saw some sequin wearing SAG members and Hollywood types roll into the theater and the dudes behind us started debating the techonology used in the upcoming movie, Transformers, (could they really like the same sort of movie as us? I prayed they were just there to see it for free with their SAG memberships), as soon as the movie started the laughs began, the main character, Ben Stone (Seth Rogen) is that guy that we all know- the funny dude who was super cool in high school and college, fun to go out with and smoke some dub with at a concert, not the guy that you want your sister to date, the eye candy definately comes in the form of Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl) whose boobs look fantastic throughout the entire movie, so the story goes that Alison is working at the E! network and gets a promotion, to celebrate Alison and her married sister go out to celebrate (both looking hot and rocking their way into the front of the line), where they meet Ben and his posse of friends (the guy from How I Met Your Mother and some guys from Freaks and Geeks), in a sorta Beauty and the Beast storyline Alison and Ben make it back to her house and start to get it on, and while Ben is trying his best to put a condom on (we get the feeling it's something he has not done in a while), Alison tells him "Just do it already!!!" which Ben takes literally and from the name of the movie its not hard to guess what happens next, the movie is filled with great on liners (esp liked the one about doggy style- "I'm not asking you to do it a like dog, just in the style of a dog, it's not like I'm asking you to go outside to do it like that"), awesome performance by Paul Rudd, TONS of great breast moments (did I mention that Ben and his friends are trying to create an internet site that can tell you at what point in a movie you can see an actresses boobs, frontal nudity, etc), there is even a koochie shot (thought it may not be what you think), Judd Apatow does an excellent job of capturing all the crazy shit women do and making fun of it as well as pointing out all of the dumb ass shit guys, this movie is destined to be come a quotable classic along with Old School, 40 Year Old Virgin and Anchor Man, this is a man's romantic comedy as it is a love story, filled with crude jokes, drugs, alcohol, sex, boobs and not too much gushy gay love songs.

Just got back from watching this movie and it's pretty funny... As Jackson said it has some great one liners in it and I only got one BJ through the film (Spiderman 3 I got 2 and a rub n' tug)
the Asian GF of the hippie looking dude was my fav.

I liked the 40 year old virgin, so I may well give this film a shot too.

Judd Apatow is hilarious, and so is Seth Rogen ... so I'll check this out. Throw in Katherine Heigl, who has basically been hot as shit since that ass shot in My Father the Hero, and it's a must see.

If you want to see what the critics think of this movie (not that that's the only criterion for a successful film), go to rottentomatoes.com and type it in. The reviews are surprisingly good.

Saw it the other day and it was fantastic (although assuming it would be since it was Apatow). Hilarious and raw (yes some crudeness but all good-hearted adult fun - it's real life folks!), nothing "candy-coated" here, which makes you feel for the characters so much more. People who bash this movie are the ones without brains or emotion and think Dane Cook is a comedic genius. You people (#1,2,8) are the fucktard demographic that Hollywood can sell shitty movies too and make millions on. Thank God for Apatow and crew for this gem...now must wait for PTA's upcoming flick this fall :(

Oh forgot to say that the continuous mention of Spiderman 3 is obviously an inside joke of how terrible it is (Rudd - "Sometimes I just want to see Spiderman 3" Mann (whimpering) - "but I like Spiderman 3 too!"). Their just giving James Franco, who they've all worked with in the past and also in this movie seen making fun of himself, a hard time for being in it and poking fun at his "success" while still being able to sell it to idiots.
Their little homage to Fear and Loathing is also pretty good...anyone whose ever taken mushrooms knows how great it is to walk around bare foot and how terrifying it would be to see a circus on them.
Also this film is a perfect choice for Katherine Heigl and shows she can actually act and have a good time rather than just the prime-time TV garbage she's known for. In actuality it was a "classy" choice for her career and now I have a little bit more respect for her than having none before.

I'm against abortion and most other forms of murder, but if this guy got me pregnant, I might make an exception....

I LIKED IT!

BULLSHIT on you referencing Old School and Anchor Man. Fucking horrible shitty movies. Judd Apatow did not write or direct those. He was merely a producer.
His writing is the best.

when a fetus starts talking to me, then killing one will be murder

I havent seen this movie, nor do i want to see it, but it looks really shit. Katherine Heigl can do better. What a waste of boobs.

This movie was so fucking overrated I want my 10 bucks back. Nothing but crude jokes and retarded shit. I get the feeling this shit is right up Heigl's alley, classy my ass.
