Knocked up and the proposition


I know alot of major critics are giving this glowing reviews. It isn't bad but I wouldn't go with the new york times and say it's a classic. It's ok and maybe close to being good but it's not perfect.
Then why do critics like it well yeah it is better then most of the mainstream comedy's out right now and it does have more of a soul. The cast is good. But it didn't go far enough. I've seen what apatow can do on freaks and geeks and I wish I'd see more of stuff like that.
I do think this is better then 40 year old virgin and probably funnier too.
The characters were better i feel like his next movie will be even more awesome then this and it will totally be awesome as all hell.
But Seth Rogen was really really good and I would see another movie with him in it without a doubt. also hats off to martin starr cause i really like him and hope they put him in alot more movies.

well I guess it's negative nacey day here but whatever. this has a good movie in it but it's doesn't go there. Sure it is kinda like a sergio leone movie or a pempicpah movie but here's the thing. They set it up like an older western like a ford western and there was no character arc. Yeah and in fact the movie was begging for one. You had alot of other stories going on that could have used a bigger arc to bounce off of. but nope. so there just kind of there in a movie of nice imagery and coo music. don't get me wrong i like the music nick cave did and the violent imagery looked really good.
But what is this movie. It's not worth another watch and even though it's coo to have a western in the austrailian outback. It wasn't about australia so it didn't really fucking matter where it was. It was a great location. a couple of people have told me nick cave always writes like that which sounds boring as shit. Just because you like someones music doesn't make them a good writer. I'm sure this isn't as bad as million dollar hotel written by bono but i also didn't see that. and it was better then house of a thousand corpses but i hated that. so if you want to see a good movie don't see this but if you want to jerk off to nick cave then be my guest
