In your opinion is this a must own movie?

In your opinion, is this a movie you have to own or is this a movie that you would just watch on tv if it was on?

Depends. For me, this is a must-own. But I can see it only being a "watch it on TV or Netflix" movie for other people.

And FURTHERMORE, this is my signature! SERIOUSLY! Did you think I was still talking about my point?

"being a "watch it on TV or Netflix" movie for other people."

Yup, for me it is. I consider Pineapple Express and The Interviews as must own movies though.

I'd like to watch it again. I've already watched it three times now. Heigl is gobsmackingly gorgeous in this movie.

A rental. It was ok but it's not one you'll be watching on a regular basis.

Definitely a must-own

It's one of the better comedies from the Judd Apatow crowd, like most of his films it's flawed but it's likeable cast and good heart even with all his crude humor wins you over. Like most Apatow films it's too long, could have cut this down to by over twenty minutes to half an hour for a stronger film. Any film that makes Katherine Heigl likeable deserves praise lol.

If you like comedy if it's on sale for cheap then buy it. It's got one of Seth Rogen's more like able performances, and his relationship with Heigl's character is cute. With good funny early performances from Jason Segal, Kristen Wigg, Bill Hader and Jonah Hill.

From the mid 00's comedies, I'd put this up there as buy it along with 40 Year Old Virgin (still Apatow's best film), Superbad, Anchorman, Forgetting Sarah Marshall and I Love You Man (that's such a underrated comedy) are must buys.
