Knocked Up

From the director of ''The 40-Year-Old Virgin'' comes a comedy about a one night stand that became something more.


Knocked Up
A 'kinda-sequel' to ''The 40 Year Old Virgin'', using many of the same actors in different roles. A dope-head slacker manages to have a one-night-stand with a hot babe, who would be way out of his league if she wasn't drunk. She falls pregnant, which upsets both their lives. For the first time in his life, he is forced to grow up and accept responsibility. Their friends fill in the drama and comedy surrounding pregnancy and childbirth. Viewers easily offended by continuous bad language should skip this.

127 minutes.
No persons under 13 (Language, Sex).
Comedy, Drama, Romance.

Not currently showing on the local cinema circuit.

Theresa Smith quote iconThis is a boy's movie through and through, just with fewer fart jokes.

iAfrica.com
Rebekah Kendal quote iconPossibly not quite as funny as 40-Year-Old Virgin — but probably better — this strangely insightful film will have you roaring with laughter, cringing and smiling knowingly.

Sunday Times
Barry Ronge quote iconEasily one of the best comedies of 2007.

ReelViews
James Berardinelli quote iconKnocked Up could be one of the summer of 2007's sleeper hits. It certainly deserves the distinction.

ScreenIt
quote iconKnocked Up would seem to have the appearance of a full-term comedy, but it just doesn't deliver like it should
