From the ridiculously funny mind of Judd Apatow, is Knocked up, a rom-com about Ben (Seth Rogen) and Alison (Katherine Heigl) who meet at a club, have a good time together which then leads to a one night stand. The following morning Alison just wants to forget it ever happened and they part ways. 2 months later she realises she could be pregnant and contacts Ben who says he'll support her, the two then try to make a relationship work. During the pregnancy Ben is constantly behaving like a child and Alison starts to doubt if he's right for her. With a great supporting cast of Leslie Mann, Paul Rudd, Jason Segal and Jonah Hill. This is my favourite Appatow movie because the script is great but it's the story that sells me, I mean an unexpected pregnancy is nothing new but the heart of the film can be seen throughout, which causes you to have fun while watching, its endlessly funny which was expected but Rogen's portrayal of Ben is wonderful, he brings his boyish humour and lovable presence and grows up in the film - only slightly but still, what did you expect?
