Kind of wish I had rented this one over buying. Google going to ever allow us to sell movies back for even partial credit. Even if it were one or two a year that'd be cool. Anyways, the movie was watchable. Just a couple going through their own "getting older" problems. I like that the kept the same family from knocked up - that was coo'.

Normally I love this team, but in this movie the script UTTERLY fails them. A miserable message and/or a very cynical view of what life in a post modern america is like. The central characters are shallow and unappealing. My wife saw this at a mommies and toddlers movie day and the audience lost their sh#t. I caught it on a flight and was surprised by its superficiality. Just not funny. Not funny for adults.

Rented this anticipating a typical Apatow laugh fest. Well, That's what we got for the first half of the movie. Then, abruptly and unexpectedly, this movie took a complete 180 degree turn into a dull, serious and rather depressing tone that it couldn't be rescued from until the credits. I honestly thought i was watching a different movie. Trust me on this. If you're looking for Knocked Up, then watch Knocked Up again. At least that movie maintained a sense of identity and purpose for it's entirety.
