Don't believe the hype

Rating: 1/10 (23 June 2007)

This movie is dreadful. It is not funny. It is just what I thought The 40 Year Old Version would be - but that movie was surprisingly clever. This movie is not. This movie is unbelievable and ridiculous throughout without any clever humor whatsoever. There is nothing likable about the Ben character. Nothing. He is a complete loser. I think that this is just a fantasy movie for loser guys and how they could end up with a "perfect" girl. There would never be a movie with the opposite premise - i.e., how a really put together gorgeous guy ends up with a dumpy loser of a girl. The 40 Year Old Virgin was clever, funny and sweet. Knocked Up is just gross and stupid.
