Rated 5 out of 5 stars
A fun movie
Knocked up
I enjoyed this movie. I kept finding myself smiling. So if you've been in a relationship, a lot of this movie will seem familiar. Whether you like it or not is up to you.
As for the disk, I think it looked very good. You may either watch the theatrical released version or the "Unrated & Unprotected" version. One is two hours and nine minutes, the other is two hours and 13 minutes, so not much of a difference. I didn't watch both versions to compare so I can't really tell you.
There are a lot of extras on this disk. One of the most interesting would be the picture in picture, where the actors give you a behind-the-scenes view of the what's going on for a particular scene, while watching the movie. One thing that did bother me about this disk – is that it does remember where you left off. I find it very, very annoying.
If you're a fan of this movie I think you'll enjoy the disk.
The follow up to The 40 Year Old Virgin from Judd Apatow is no sophomore slump. It has the same raunchy humor, but deep down there is a heart beating and by the end of the film, your stomach hurts from laughing so hard, but you're also happy because of the heartwarming nature of it.
This is also Seth Rogen's first leading role, and he nails it as the stoner who has to learn to grow up and take responsibility for his actions.
Definitely one of Apatow's best films, and one of Rogen's as well. Katherine Heigl is good as the female lead, and the supporting cast is tremendous. Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann are great as the married couple struggling to find meaning in their lives.
Not a family film, however, so keep the kiddies away!
If for some reason you missed this, now is your time to see it. This is both funny and heartwarming. The cast is a huge assortment of funny people who have gone on to become really big. And Judd Apatow's writing and directing is brilliant. I would recommend buying this on DVD instead of getting a digital copy because of all the extras - in particular, the commentary by Apatow, Seth Rogan and Bill Hader. The stuff they have to say is just as funny as the movie itself. Knocked Up is going to be a classic someday.
