Critic Reviews

  • Melissa Anderson, Time Out New York

    Ultimately the film says that fate has a way of kicking you up a notch, if you can somehow let yourself rise to the occasion.

  • Ben Walters, Time Out

    The year's best comedy; one that confirms the arrival of an extended group of talent that looks set to take the studio comedy crown from the likes of Ferrell, Stiller and Carrey.

  • Andrew Sarris, New York Observer

    Knocked Up isn't going to help change the world or anything, but at the very least it may help take one's mind off the relentlessly dismal headlines. I don't know what greater service a mere movie can perform these days.

  • Tom Charity, CNN.com

    A refreshingly frank, funny odd-couple comedy with engaging leads and too many belly laughs to count.

  • Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

    Hilarious from moment to moment, but leaving behind both a warm glow and a sting. This is a picture that refuses to fetishize either the ability to conceive or the significance of our place in the universe once we've done so.

    I love Judd Apatow movies because the dialogue is so cuttingly, honestly rib-burstingly funny. I laughed so loud I scared my neighbour's pregnant cat into labour. Katherine Heigl and Seth Rogen are earnest, clunky and so effing good-intentioned in this movie, but it's… More
