Storyline

When Alison Scott is promoted in E! Television, she goes to a night-club to celebrate with her older married sister Debbie. Alison meets the pothead reckless Ben Stone and while having a small talk with Ben, Debbie's husband Pete calls her to tell that their daughter has chicken pox. Debbie leaves the place but Allison stays with Ben, drinking and dancing along all night; completely wasted, they end up having a one night stand. Ben does not use a condom and eight weeks later, Allison discovers that she is pregnant. She calls Ben and they decide to try to stay together and have the baby. However, Ben needs to grow up first to raise a family of his own. Written by Claudio Carvalho, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Alternate Versions

In the UK theatrical release, during the first scene where the guys work on their website, the material regarding Short Cuts was replaced by a skit on Total Recall and the three breasted lady, containing Jason's impression of Arnie saying "damn it Cohaagen, give dem di ayer". This scene is absent from both region 1 and 2 DVDs, and only the Short Cuts is included. The Total Recall bit doesn't even appear in deleted scenes, meaning it seems to have vanished. See more »

A daily comment from Midget Emma: Knocked Up (2007)

I went into this movie thinking it was going to be another teen movie. But it wasn't this was more for the adults. It was funny, it was heartwarming and it had great performances.

This had jokes that seem like they took along time to write. Some of them i was sitting and then i yelled "oh i get it".

The guys who played Ben stones friends were excellent. They had some of the funniest moments.

I have to give a mention to Apatows kids. They were hilarious.

There were some unexpected moments that made it even more hilarious. It is definitely worth seeing. I recommend.

8/10
