I'm white and i was offended as to how white this movie is. the dialogue was terrible and had gratuitous language. Terrible writers. I almost smashed my TV when the guy said "life is like that show everybody loves Raymond except not as funny". This movie might only appeal to teenage girls that don't know any better. Unfortunately that low common denominator will swallow this crap as truth.

Comedy about a young high-flying career woman getting pregnant after a drunken one-night stand and the consequences of this for her and the father, who just happens to be an unemployed recreational drug user whose hobbies include creating smut websites. A likeable comedy that explores many life issues and has engaging leads in the form of Katherine Heigl (who I have loved since her days in the teen sci-fi series Roswell) and Seth Rogen as the mismatched couple dealing with the unexpected pregnancy. Good stuff.

Critics, what were you smokin'? "knocked Up," 2007's surprise blockbuster from Hollywood's new R-rated comedy king Judd Apatow, got such positive spin that I was primed for a raunchy good time. Nearly 2 1/2 hours later I, like most of the characters in this movie, needed anger management. Never have I seen a "romantic" comedy this hell bent on bucking logic as well as taste. (And never have I heard the word "F--k" used this much since "Scarface.")
The premise is simple. Think "Beauty and the Geek." A gorgeous up and coming TV personality (Gray's Anatamy's Katherine Heigl) sleeps with an unemployed loser (Seth Rogen) after a drunken night out. She gets pregnant. They play house.
Now, in the movie world this plot line would make sense under one precondition: that the loser would be such a lovable little loon that we would root for him to win the girl's heart against all odds. It would also help if the loser was played by someone with some crazed zeal like Jack Black or Adam Sandler. In the person of Seth Rogen we just get one thing- a loser. Rogen's character is such a pot-headed man/child and a foul-mouthed cry baby that we can in no way believe the beautiful Heigl would touch him with a ten foot pole. It like walking into a depressing movie version of hell where a glamorous actress settles for an uninteresting minor player instead of the charismatic leading man.
Is it funny? Sure, if your definition of funny is seeing every character going into some foul-mouthed rant as if they were caffeine addicts told that their local Starbucks was out of coffee. Even Ryan Seacrest in a cameo is in desperate need of a time out. And I'm no prude. I've often argued that profanity if used in the proper context can almost be poetry. Richard Pryor and George Carlin are trash talkin' Shakespeares. Apatow's script is just trash. Cuss words here are not icing on the cake but filler for lack of anything better to say.
In a way "Knocked Up" presents a world as seen through the eyes of a 15-year old. It's a pubescent fantasy where that unobtainable hottie is into slackers who have no ambition, smoke dope, and like Internet porn. It's a "romantic comedy" for the Howard Stern set. It's also proof positive that TV is becoming increasing smarter and better written. Remember on "Friends" when Ross and Rachel spent hour after agonizing hour in the maternity ward? Hilarious, right? No? Then this F-bombed comedy is for you.

This movie has an unbelievable plot. It is not funny, very slow, and a waste of time.

"Knocked Up" revolves around the importance of using birth control, especially when you're sleeping with a less-than-desirable partner. Alison (Katherine Heigl) and Ben (Seth Rogen) meet at a club and hook up for a drunken one-night-stand that results in an unplanned pregnancy. This mismatched couple tries to make things work for the sake of their unborn baby, but it isn't easy. Alison and Ben are as different as two people can be. She's gorgeous, classy, and has a successful career. He's chubby and stoned most of the time, and his only professional ambition is to launch a successful Web site that revolves around female nudity in films. Despite their differences, Alison and Ben manage to support each other until Alison finally begins to question whether Ben is capable of being a responsible father figure.
I enjoyed this movie. There are a lot of funny moments in the film, but there are also quite a bit of not-so-funny scenes. Heigl and Rogen both deliver solid performances, but there is absolutely no chemistry between their characters as a couple, and I couldn't understand why Alison was so desperate to make her relationship with Ben work out, even though she had a baby on the way. Also, beware the crowning scene near the end of the movie (I did NOT need to see that!). Fortunately, "Knocked Up" boasts a wonderful supporting cast. Alison's sister and brother-in-law are absolutely hilarious, and I though Leslie Mann and Paul Rudd were the best parts of the movie.
Overall, this film is good for a few laughs, but with so much hype surrounding it, I just expected more.
