Believe the hype.
It IS that good. It is crass and touching at the same time.
Perhaps I’m a little biased, having knocked someone up and lived the dream of it working out, but Judd Apatow has managed to make a movie that is as good as the other movie he made, which was EXCELLENT. The 40-Year-Old Virgin was awesome in that it somehow managed to be disgusting and touching at the same time. This movie is no different. I LOVED it.
In my ideal world, this would be the blockbuster movie of the summer. Fuck Spider-man, The Fantastic Four, or any of those popcorn monstrosities. This movie was funny, touching, and completely entertaining in every way.
I highly recommend it.
