"It’s mostly a blur. At some point, there was someone’s house. One guy was laying on the floor with a tiny dog licking his face while he giggled uncontrollably. A friend of a friend was picked up and creeping everybody out, and Heather Graham might have called the police on him. That is when I left. Was that my bachelor party or someone else’s? Or, was I watching The Hangover? In comic book jargon, it is the gutter. That blank space between the sequence of images that allows your brain to fill in the gaps. Your imagination searches through the universe of possibilities based on the visible evidence. The Hangover translates this to the "

"I saw Knocked Up, a couple of times, I have to say that this film is great. It's up there with "40-Year Old Virgin". This film seemed more grounded in "reality" than "Virgin". People were complaining about seeing Seth Rogen's butt. It was not disgusting. It was quite nice. I wonder, why does every Apatow film have a "pot-smoking" scene? This movie, Virgin, Walk Hard, Pineapple Express. Doe Judd have something to tell us? "

"Kevin Smith has a right to be pretty bitter right now. For years, he's been blending raunch and romance with equal measure, to middling box office results. From his grungy little breakthrough, “Clerks,” in 1994, to the polished “Chasing Amy” to the not-as-bad-as-it's-rumored-to- be “Jersey Girl,” Smith has never shied from the messy sexual side of relationships in dialogue that some of the closest couples dare not discuss. Meanwhile, writer/director Judd Apatow snuck into the kingdom and stole the crown, basically covering the very same turf in films such as “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” “Knocked Up” and “Forgetting Sarah Marshall.”

"This was a film I saw in theaters with absolutely no expectations. The previews, the poster, even the cast made it seem like an incredibly unoriginal studio vehicle. I refused to pay attention even to the most positive of reviews that the movie was getting--even my favorite critic's 3 1/2 star review of the film (88% on Metacritic). So, I walk into the theater with a few of my friends, hating myself for being a part of the crowd of half-drunk teenagers and their most recent of partners filing into the auditorium and talking very loudly about the stupidest things imaginable. My friends insisted that it was supposed to be "Funny as shit dude!" My pre-formed opinions were almost completely proven with a generic opening sequence that involved a happy Cake song, teeth brushing, and early morning cereal and television in pajamas. I was ready for nearly two hours of pompous bashing of the film with my friends. And then, Jason Segel's dick pops out. "Oh my goodness!" I thought. The ... "

"A friend with weed is a friend indeed. That is the lesson to be extracted from the latest comedy off the Judd Apatow assembly line, “Pineapple Express.” While it may get anti-marijuana advocates abuzz with consternation, it's a sweet little trip until a dramatic shift to violence quite literally calls the cops to this feel-good party. “Express” is laced with guffaws and gunplay, and while not as startlingly schizophrenic as this summer's “Hancock,” it still feels as though its personalities are squished together in such a forced fashion, it threatens to disrupt the good vibes it garners through much of the film. And, like all of Apartow's blockbuster comedies before it (“Knocked Up,” Superbad,” “The 40-Year-Old Virgin”), it overstays its welcome by at least 30 minutes. Imagine, if you will, an entire film devoted to the ganja-clouded escapades of Brad Pitt's Floyd, the moviewestoner he portrayed in Tony Scott's &ldqu ... "

"In a piece at The House Next Door subtitled “More Valuable Than Sex,” Andrew Johnston talks about the 80s teen movie that taught him that “a real, intimate connection with someone you can turn to in your darkest hour is more valuable than mere sex — a downright subversive notion in an era loaded with movies about hormone-crazed maniacs desperate to lose their virginity by any means necessary.” And what film was this?

"Knocked Up is the kind of movie that justifies the existence of film critics. I would have never seen this movie, marketed as a dumb comedy for the Adam Sandler crowd, had I not been aware of the rave reviews. One critic called Knocked Up the best movie released so far this year, others have named the funniest movie the summer, the funniest of the year, or funniest film in many years. Kyle Smith said it was "An era defining comedy classic to rank with Little Miss Sunshine…" but I'll set that opinion aside. So I went to the theatre despite my misgiving and was surprised at how much this movie grew on me. It begins as expected, with lots of sex and bodily function jokes, but gets oddly compelling and real as the movie continuous, reminding me of Woody Allen at his best. By the movie's end, I was genuinely moved. &nb "

"Summerhood, narrated by John Cusack, is not your typical summer camp comedy. Director Jacob Medjuck applies the Apatow brand of humor that made hits out of Superbad and Knocked Up to the traditional camp comedy formula, creating an entertaining and hilarious coming-of-age movie about taking chances and following your heart. The very-appropriate soundtrack of 80s songs only adds to the film, and the tracks appear at just the right time. Here's just a taste, from 2 Live Crew: I saw this at the Waterfront Film Festival in Saugatuck, Michigan. The film is probably not appropriate for young children, given the mature nature of some of the film's subject matter. "

"You would think a movie called "Knocked Up" would feature more gross-out humor than the latest creation from Judd Apatow already does. Sure, there is a cringe-worthy joke in which three characters get pink eye from farting-bare assed-on each other´s pillows. And there´s enough references to breasts becoming bigger and drooping, male reproductive organs poking a fetus in the face during sex and other bodily functions to fill two or three movies. Surprisingly, these attempts at sophomoric humor don´t hold the movie back. While celebrating her promotion at the E! Network, Alison and Ben (Katherine Heigl, Seth Rogen) hook up while both are plastered. He is an out of work slacker, living with a motley crew of friends, beer bongs and no responsibilities; she is on the fast track to becoming the next big thing on television. Eight weeks later, Alison tells Ben she´s pregnant, which leads to all sorts of break ups, make ups and hijinx between Alison and Ben, as well ... "
