Knocked Up

Knocked Up is quite a simple film.
As the title suggests it's about a one night stand that ends up in pregnancy due to a miscommunication (depending on how you see it).
What it does do is give hope to us average guys that a beautiful woman might actually want to go out with us (pardon the self-deprecation).
Though overly long, I thought, it is the charm of most of the characters that makes you overlook the fact it should have been about 20 minutes shorter.
Seth Rogen plays Ben Stone who, through some kind of miracle or twist of fate, meets Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl from Grey's Anatomy) and they end up, well you know the rest.
The movie depicts the misadventures of Ben and Alison as they prepare to become parents and try to work out what their relationship is.
A couple of side stories are also quite hilarious, including the one involving Pete (Paul Rudd who was very, very good in this) who is Alison's brother-in-law and his wife's suspicions that he is cheating on her and Ben's pothead mates who catalogue nudity in films for `work'.
Yeah it's a crude film at times and there's a birth scene that might put me off wanting to have children for a while (not that it is a pressing problem at the moment) but I had fun.
As I said it's a simple film made above average by a solid script and decent acting and you can't ask for much more in such a movie. A 7.5 out of 10.
