Description

Holly (Katherine Heigl) is an up-and-coming caterer and Messer (Josh Duhamel) is a promising network sports director. After a disastrous first date, all they have is common is their dislike for each other and their love for their goddaughter Sophie. But when they suddenly become all Sophie has in this world, Holly and Messer must set their differences aside. Judging career ambitions and competing social calendars, they’ll have to find common ground while living under the same roof. Josh Lucas, Christina Hendricks, Hayes MacArthur and Jean Smart co-star in this tart and tender romantic comedy directed by Greg Berlanti (TV’s Brothers & Sisters and Everwood).

    Life As We Know It is a great feel-good movie. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it while I was pregnant, and I've seen it since and still enjoy watching it. I definitely recommend seeing it. I have a thing for kid-raising movies.

    It's a cute, light flick. I enjoyed it but I wouldn't say it's a must-see. I love how in these movies people always live in these ridiculous houses. The whole time I kept thinking how many people that age could ever afford a house like that?? It's also somewhat implausible that the parents wouldn't have discussed their guardianship with either of them in advance. That aside, it's cute and there are plenty of enjoyable/funny moments.

    My friend and I watched the movie "Life as We Know It" this week. It stars Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel (and happy surprise to me - Josh Lucus) as two single adults who become caregivers to an orphaned girl after their mutual best friends die in an accident.

    I was expecting this to be a typical rom-com, with a big cheese factor, and it was. However, the first 30 minutes of the movie were surprisingly sad and thoughtful, the build-up of the relationships between the friends is good, and you find yourself empathizing with the characters early on when they lose their best friends.

    The movie is cute, and sweet - the perfect film to watch with the girlfriends or on a lazy night with your boyfriend (it's not too sappy for him).

    The scenes are familiar and typical, but hey - it's a film that you get exactly what you expect.

    I'd watch it again.

    Short Synopsis: This movie stars Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel. They become the parents of an orphan baby-girl after their mutual friends pass away in a car accident.

    I really liked this rom-com. I thought it was one of Heigl's best (seeing as how this is pretty much her main genre). I don't know what it was about this film, maybe the incredibly cute baby with a million facial expressions, or the predictable blooming romance between the two characters, but I really liked it. It's a cute film with some quirky parts and a feel good end. Heigl's character reminds me a lot of the one she played in Knocked Up, and Duhamel seems to look better than ever in this film. I would recommend!
