A crazy comedy for todays generation

Rating: 8/10 (16 November 2007)

Judd Apatow both wrote & directed this comedic romp,.
Now as much as I enjoyed much of the goings on, I would have much preferred it if there was a fewer jokes on passing of gas and many less uses of the "f" & other choice words.
The best performances were by the guys. Seth Rogan as a slightly chubby romeo was a delight. His 4 stoner buddies were near pitch perfect. & Paul Rudd as a sad sack husband & father was as usual well cast.He has a fine sense of comedic timing,. Harold Ramis is excellent in his 2 scenes as Seth's Father.
Now the distaff side does not come over as well, The 2 leading ladies are beautiful & have comic ability. Leslie Mann & Katherine Heigl act like spoiled brats & do not come across as one bit likable.
If there were more scenes with the guys, this easily would have been a higher rating, I would not have minded the language as much,
Call me a 'fuddy-duddy ', I just do not like to hear women cursing,when there is no reason to.
This is an R rated movie deservedly so,.
