Knocked Up (DVD) ... released 26 December, 2007 at Universal Pictures Video / Features of the DVD: PAL / In a year that otherwise struggled to deliver where comedies were concerned, Knocked Up proved to be a very welcome treasure trove of laughs. It’s from Judd Apatow, the man behind The 40 Year Old Virgin and the excellent TV show Freaks and Geeks, and sits easily as an equal to both. It’s also a long-awaited showcase for the talents of Seth Rogen, who proves with some conviction that he can headline a movie. The premise of Knocked Up is simple. Seth Rogen and Kathryn Heigl share, for differing reasons, a one-night stand, and several weeks later, the latter discovers she’s pregnant. Given that Rogen’s character has been jobless for years, and that Heigl is trying to build a TV career, the two don’t prove to be a logical match, yet as the pregnancy progresses, they try valiantly to get to know one another. The narrative itself is quite straightforward, but it’s the execution and characters that lift it significantly. Apatow knows how to direct comedy, and with a script peppered with plenty of guffaw-out-loud moments and situations, he wrings very hearty laughs from the material. Plus, while its Rogen and Heigl who power the film, the supporting cast is simply superb, particularly the collection of people that Rogen’s character surrounds himself with. It’s perhaps guilty of running ten minutes too long, and there’s little to surprise in the story itself, yet Knocked Up is nonetheless a terrific, earthy and grounded comedy, with so much to enjoy. It’s hard to single out individual moments, and instead it simply seems more appropriate to declare Knocked Up as one of the best, and most rewatchable, comedies of the last few years. Don’t miss it.--Simon Brew

Film marketing would have us believe that biggest is best. Film posters adorn themselves with references to their fantastic special effects, huge budgets, massive takings or major movie stars. However, often big budget movies are all style and no substance. Sometimes a cinema goer wants a little characterisation and humour in their films. This market has been filled in the past couple of years by films made by Judd Apatow. '40 Year Old Virgin', 'Superbad' and 'Knocked Up' were all massive hits for their budget level. But does that make these films good? Just because the films marketing departments claim that 'Knocked Up' is one of the highest grossing comedies of ...

This week my film of choice was one that has just recently been released at the cinema, and that choice was ‘Knocked Up’. I had the idea this would be a light hearted funny film judging by the adverts I’d seen so I thought I’d give this a try. It’s a definite comedy but with an unusual kind of plot as judging by the title it involves pregnancy and is a bit of a mixture of a serious storyline with a bit of a silly one. I have to say I was a bit disappointed with this film as it in no way lived up to my expectations and I think as usual the advert had pretty much revealed most of the funny parts of the film and left me in my cinema chair with disappointment. We ...
