Knocked up 20077/25/2023 ![]() "Jessica Alba fell down!!! Ahahahahahaha!" "He yelled 'sex' really loud!!! Pssshhahahahahaaheheheheeee!" No. Woodcock" and "Good Luck Chuck," movies with no real craft to any of their jokes. Knocked Up is vulgar, absolutely it is, but is is not stupid. I've noticed a lot of the negative comments about this title tend to focus on this movie's vulgar, 'stupid' humor. While there is a certain level of crudity throughout, the movie is generally lighthearted and innocent. A fast-movie plot also kept the movie moving along - something was always happening and there was never a dull moment. Even though most of them were one-dimensional, the dialog made them seem human and easy to relate to. No matter the scene, it was always fun to hear what the characters were going to say. It's a simple plot but the dialog is what makes this movie shine. When she decides to have the baby, she's not sure what her relationship with the father should be. The father-to-be is a good natured, pot-head slacker who has no money. The basic premise is simple: a young TV reporter celebrates a promotion by getting drunk and inadvertently pregnant. It reminds me of Superbad - another movie that I would never normally see, but one which wins you over by it's sheer (albeit crude) brilliance. ![]() The acting is great, the plot fast-paced, the characters believable and the dialog witty and clever. Although the subject matter wasn't really appealing to me, the critics and general audience reviews are right: this is a very well made movie.
