Film Review: "Knocked Up" (2007)

"Knocked Up" is a so-so comedy about a big-time slacker who hits the jackpot one night with a drunken entertainment show talk host. She gets pregnant, decides to keep the baby, and a few chuckles (rather than outright hilarity) follow close behind.

In other words, it's not that funny, which is a little misleading given the advance press. It's also disjointed, implausible and chock full of detestable characters who grate, leaving you feeling that this movie is about 1/3 too long.

The "Wedding Crashers" of 2007 - an overrated rental which deserves a C minus at best.

Overall rating: 6/10
