Movie Notes: Knocked Up
This movie made me laugh, several times, hard — at the characters but then a bit harder because I was really laughing at myself. I’d describe Knocked Up as equal parts “chick flick” and “guy flick” and heavy dose of crass film humor in the vein of American Pie.
The film follows Alison Scott (Katherine Heigl) and her marriage-worn sister on one side and Ben Stone (Seth Rogan) and his goofy friends on the other. They hook up at a dance club and Alison is soon pregnant by Ben, who initially looks to have very little father material.
