Summary:
Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl) celebrates her promotion with her sister Debbie (Leslie Mann), has one drink too much and spends the night with by slacker Ben Stone (Seth Rogen). She doesn’t expect to ever see him again, but after eight weeks she finds out she’s pregnant and calls Ben. He’s as shocked as Alison but promises to stand up to his responsibility.

They try to build a relationship, but Alison is a career-minded woman, and Ben lives from what’s left of smart money, doesn’t have a job and lives with a couple friends. Their business plan is to build a website with a database of movie nude scenes, but usually they just hang around and get high.
What bothers Alison even more is watching her sister’s troubled marital life with Pete (Paul Rudd, who does a mighty impressive Robert De Niro impersonation) so she decides to split up with Ben.
Review:
As simple as it may be (boy meets girl, boy loses girl, boy gets girl), it’s easily the funniest rom-com of the year. The jokes keep coming and rarely ever miss, without falling back on gross-out, and even tiny supporting roles (Harold Ramis as Ben’s dad, Craig Robinson’s doorman) are well cast, finely crafted -- and hilariously funny.
Knocked Up is more than only funny, it have a good story, excellent actors and it is really fun to watch, it have the old conservative view of life and marriage, no abortion or anything of that kind…
My Honest Rating: 8.0/10
