2. Summary

   Very Good 3.5

   Seth Rogan “Ben” and Katherine Heigl “Alison” have a drunken fling that winds up getting her pregnant. Only thing is, she’s the belle of the ball and he’s the unemployed stoner type. The film provides lots of laughs and touching moments as well all made possible by a very versatile and genuinely funny cast. All in all a very enjoyable and smart comedy that stays consistent even through the serious parts.

   Seth Rogan and Katherine Heigl are the mainstays of the film. At first their pairing seems a bit too contrived, but after a while I found myself buying it. Paul Rudd is one of my favorite supporting actors in this film with his straight-man form of sarcastic wit and Leslie Mann was a surprise hit with some unbelievable acting as the stressed out mom. Lots of smaller parts and cameos from folks like
