Amazon.co.uk Review
In a year that otherwise struggled to deliver where comedies were concerned, IKnocked Up/I proved to be a very welcome treasure trove of laughs. It's from Judd Apatow, the man behind IThe 40 Year Old Virgin/I and the excellent TV show IFreaks and Geeks/I, 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. P The premise of IKnocked Up/I 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. P 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. P It's perhaps guilty of running ten minutes too long, and there's little to surprise in the story itself, yet IKnocked Up/I 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 IKnocked Up/I as one of the best, and most rewatchable, comedies of the last few years. Don't miss it.--ISimon Brew/I

 Hilarious! October 11, 2008
A. Robertson (Portsmouth, UK)
I totally loved this film and after owning it a week, I'd watched it 3 times - Seth's infectious laugh is enough to make me laugh! If you like Forgetting Sarah Marshall or 40 Year Old Virgin, you should like this! Think this is actually funnier than both of them to be honest! Paul Rudd is hilarious as always and really makes this film, "I'm gonna throw you in my Delorian and gun it to '88" - my fave line from the film lol!!! br / br /Try it, I think you'll like it!!
 Mindless,un-pc idiotic, but enjoyable enough August 17, 2008
mr flaps
This is a film designed to entertain, the characters are 2 dimensional and unsympathetic, don't interact well and serve only to move the story from one scene to another. That said, it is enjoyable enough and didn't make me want to gouge my eyes out. If you want an unplanned pregnancy flick with depth and heart buy Juno. If you just want to laugh, buy this. br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br / br /i
likeable characters and one or two very funny moments August 9, 2008
dan the fan (england,uk)
A man gets a woman pregnant on what she thinks is a one night stand,they hardly know each other, but decide to see if they should stay together for the sake of the baby.I would describe this as a film with likeable characters that moves along at a gentle pace with one or two very funny moments but it is generally only mildly amusing.The film is only suitable for people 15 years and older because of strong language and drug use.
 Very funny August 5, 2008

`Knocked Up' stars Seth Rogen as Ben - an immature, out of work lay about who meets Alison (Katherine Heigl) who is a career-driven TV presenter, in a club and a few weeks later Alison finds out that she is pregnant. Although they have nothing in common, the two then try their best to build a relationship and even just get along. br / br /I love some of the other films by the writer of Knocked Up, such as Anchorman and The 40 Year Old Virgin and this is better than them both. From the start it is crude and hilarious. The characters are all as wacky and funny as in the other films and they all gets involved in some truly side-splitting scenarios. br / br /I highly recommend this to anyone looking to just laugh for 2 hours, so as long as you don't mind a bit of offensive comedy then this is for you. br /
