I can't wait... if it's half as funny as 40YOV, it should be awesome.

i was really on the fence until i saw this promo video:

and the metacritic score: 86

and this quote from A.O. Scott: "Rather than being afraid of commitment, Ben appears fascinated by the idea, as if it were a distant land chronicled in legend and song."

now i'm actually kind of excited to see it.

I wouldn't have thought Katherine Heigl and Seth Rogen could pull it off. Never envisioned them as lead actors. But hey I'm always up for a good comedy. Looking forward to it!

Keep your eye open for Allison's nieces. Apparently they are the director's daughters.

Oh and the "reliable" Paul Rudd is in this one! Awesome. Eye candy for us girls [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Paul Rudd has long been the best thing in every film he's in. Ever since Clueless, for crying out loud.

No spoiler review:

Cute movie, not as good as 40YO Virgin, but still worth seeing. Some very funny, but also insightful moments.

Note: You'll find the movie a lot funnier if you've had kids and/or been in a serious relationship. Teen guys are going to have trouble relating to this, IMHO. This is truly an adult comedy, where adult means you've had some life experience. So it's great for old fart married couples who need to get away from the rugrats for a few hours.

just saw it...I liked it a lot...very funny and touching at the same time. I also wondered whether Heigle and Rogan could carry a movie, but they are both pretty great...they also have some wonderful support by Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann. In fact, I think Leslie Mann is absolutely adorable. There's a great scene where she castigates a club doorman for not letting her and her pregnant sister in because she's old."

That doorman is really familiar. Where have I seen him before?

I just went and saw it. Very good...I laughed a whole lot. I think that you enjoy it the more you have been in relationships and been down the roads of adulthood. It is absolutely an adult movie, but it is very well done. The only bad thing is that it is not quite as funny as 40-Year-Old Virgin, but really, few things are.

I LOVED this. I wont compare it to 40 YOV, as that got funnier on repeat viewings, but i can see this standing up next to it. Paul Rudd and John Cusack need to make a movie together.
