Knocked Down

Rating: 4/10 (27 December 2007)

To begin, this movie is not extremely funny. It has it's clever moments, but all in all it is nothing special. The storyline is slightly boring, and gets worse as the movie progresses. The worst thing about Knocked Up is that it is very long, too long, to be a good comedy. It is about 2 hours and roughly 10 minutes of, well, honestly, nothing special. In my opinion, a good thriller/horror/action movie can easily be 2 hours or more and it is still great. Hey, even a good comedy can pull off two hours. But this movie cannot. Had it not been so long and drug out, say 1 hour and 30 minutes, it could possibly earn 5 stars out of 10 from me. If you watch this movie and don't find yourself thinking 'will this ever end?', consider yourself lucky. Therefore, don't rent this movie. It's not worth it, there are many much better movies out there. If your going to watch Knocked Up, then don't start the movie thinking it's going to be great. In the end, it's just a middle of the pack, slow moving comedy that really can't make you laugh.
