Knocked Up's score should be knocked down

Rating: 3/10 (12 September 2007)

The sole reason I decided to see this movie was because of it's high score on IMDb, and to say I was disappointed after it's conclusion would be an understatement. I caught myself laughing only a few times in the movie, and the overall message the film sends to it's viewers is irresponsible to say the least.
There is no plot development or cleverness in the story and the constant bantering between Seth Rogan and Katherine Heigl is the equivalent to third grade dialogue. The movie offers no general direction to Katherine's journey through pregnancy and continuity of the movie spirals into random scene after random scene. The only saving grace to the movie was that of Seth Green and Paul Rudd's ability to play off each other in what seemed to me to be natural chemistry, but still wasn't as good as how the tandem performed in 40 Year Old Virgin.
Finally, the believability of Katherine Haigl's character choosing to have the baby with such a loser as Seth Rogan's character is laughable to say the least. The option of abortion is downplayed in the movie, and the whole wild ride that these two strangers venture together is as improbable and disjointed as it gets. This is honestly the most over-rated movie I've ever seen.
