The worst part of this movie was definitely the guy's friends. They horribly stupid, and not funny at all.

I really don't understand where the Apatow/Rogen backlash is coming from. It frustrates me to no end. Knocked Up is a comedy gem, and not just comedy but also as a study of male/female relationships, about growing up, about maturing, about love. Everyone is on form, and while the length could be cut (not by much) this is a hugely likable movie which magnetic characters.

This is the movie where Seth Rogan became one of my favorite actors and my favorite comedian. Judd Apatow is a genius. Katherine Heigle, Leslie Mann, and Paul Rudd give top notch performances. Absolutlely hilarious. It also makes you think. Great movie.

Katherine Heigl's character portrayed the typical single mom to be, picky and demanding. Seth Rogen's character was comical in almost everyway. The comedy involved was perfect for this film, perfect couple movie

Wow. This was a very funny movie. Better then the 40 Year Old Virgin. I thought this film seemed more commercial then Superbad, but was still raunchy and very funny through out. Paul Rudd was great as well. I can't wait to see what’s next for the "Jew Tang Clan" as they call them selves.

Knocked up was a pretty funny film. Seth Rogen has become notorious not only for for his foul mouthed humor, but also for writing his characters as everday kinds of people. I like the story while it did seem somewhat unbelievable that Rogen and Heigl's characters would ever be involved with eachother even with serious ammounts of booze, the film itself was worth it.

Definitely the funniest movie I've seen all year, but besides the laughs there are some really sweet moments. It was great seeing all the Freaks and Geeks and Undeclared alumni in the movie, especially Martin Starr and Jay Baruchel, who I think are way under-appreciated. I also really dug Paul Rudd, who has been great in his recent appearance on Veronica Mars and the wonderful film Diggers, which I picked up at Blockbuster recently. Hopefully this will silence all the haters who said Seth Rogen wouldn't be able to carry a movie. Nicely done Apatow and crew, very nicely done.

I like this dumb movie. So what that the only joke the girl gets is throwing up at work? I thought the druggie friends were dumb, but I laughed so much. And what is the harm in that? At least it was better than Superbad. And I love cute babies.

This movie seemed to me to be just another saga for the "40 year-old virgin" type movies. Yes, it was quite funny. Yes, it was entertaining. But, I don't think I'd watch it again. It lacked originality, and I expect more movies to come out just like this one to milk every penny possible out of this generation of movie watchers before these types of movies are not popular anymore. I will eventually see Super Bad, but expect it to fall into the same relm. Again, these type of comedies are good date movies, and are entertaining, but don't deserve 3 to 4 stars, that is why this movie gets a 2.5 in my book.

Knocked up has something for everyone. Seth Rogen's potty humor is absolutely hilarious and add his dysfunctional friends, a spastic wife, a miserable husband and a pair of witty tv executives and you have yourself an instant classic.
