The sorta-sequel to Knocked Up was sorta-not that good. It reunites Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann and focuses on their family, including Mann and director Judd Apatow's real life kids. There's no Seth Rogen or Katherine Heigl, although Jason Segel makes an appearance.
The movie had funny parts but mostly was about family fighting and bickering. Brig had a great comment that this film was more like Apatow's Funny People than it was Knocked Up or The 40 Year Old Virgin. He's not looking to be hilarious as much as he is realistic. And that pretty much ruins it. Who wants to see that on the big screen? People live that every day, they don't need more of it. Movies are supposed to be entertaining; an escape from their normal lives. This movie is not... it's more of the same.
Again, the movie could be funny and was whenever Megan Fox (surprising) and Chris O'Dowd (of course) were on the screen but it really wasn't enough to save it.
