a comedy from the guy who brought us "40 year old virgin" that tells the story of an improbable one night stand that ends in pregnancy all the fallout that comes of it. that's about the long and short of it. though it definitely felt like 'it's all been done before' it was truly funny. i wasn't expecting much but then i heard the director, judd apatow, and the star, seth rogen, on npr and i decided i would go see it. the story is minimal but the actors, including katherine hiegl of 'grey's anatomy' fame, bring a surprisingly serious tone to the picture. it's rare i truly laugh in a movie theatre but the laughs kept coming and i seriously missed two minutes of dialouge because of a brutally hilarious scene. it's simply a good time with good heart.
