Long Lasting Laughs

Rating: 9/10 (11 July 2007)

Knocked Up was somewhat of a pleasant surprise for me. I came to see the movie because of Seth Rogen's awesome performance in 40 Year Old Virgin, and I expected him to do even better. Rogen did live up to my expectations. Seeing some guys from freaks & geeks was a pleasant surprise, but of course that is the genius of Judd Apatow. Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann provided for a lot of humor. Their characters hate/love relationship added some good, substantial, humor. The leading lady (Katherine Heigl) was alright too.
Overall this film really helped provide for some long lasting laughs.Initially when you see the movie you might laugh a little at some of the less appreciated lines, but some time later you find yourself saying things like,"Luke I am your stoner," or,"I won't say it, but it rhymes with shmashmortion," and my favorite,"No I'm just really hiiigh." Lines like these really made this film memorable, and it is the funniest movie I have seen in the theater since Anchorman.
