5 reasons to see knocked up

I was so lucky this week to get invited to go see Knocked Up before it theaters. The new movie from the director of The 40-year Old Virgin has cameos from just about everyone who's ever worked with Judd Apatow and quite a few A-list celebs (hi Jessicas Alba & Biel!), but if you're on the fence I've come up with 5 reasons why you can't miss this movie!

1. We all know Katherine Heigl can do drama (she breaks my heart every week on Grey's Anatomy), but who knew she was such great comedienne? She holds her own against a cast full of comedy heavyweights.

2. A cameo by Ryan Seacreast that will change the way you look at him next year on American Idol. Seriously, anyone who can make fun of themselves like Ryan does in this flick is just cool.

3. Paul Rudd & Seth Rogen take a road trip to Vegas. The hotel scene is 1000 times funnier than anything they did in The 40-year Old Virgin.

4. Kristen Wiig (the funniest person on SNL) steals every scene she's in - hopefully Judd Apatow will give her a whole movie next time!

5. It’s the best fake pregnant belly you’ll ever see in your life!

So, tell me . . . what movie are you planning to see this weekend? A new release (like Knocked Up) or one of the powerhouse sequels that came out in May (Pirates, maybe)?

peace,
