This is 40 is a sort of sequel to Knocked Up where Pete and Debbie deal with the unhappy fact of turning 40, having kids that seem to truly hate each other. To make matters worse, someone is stealing from Debs store and Pete’s record label isn’t doing well at all.
This movie shouldn’t be as funny as it is with that premise,yet it somehow is. Paul Rudd and Leslie Mann are great together,and seeing them gaslight Melissa McCarthy might be one of the best things I have seen lately. Both of them say horrible things to her and her son are separate parts in the movie, then in the principles office they magically become perfect parents and nice people. It’s hilarious.
The movie isn’t perfect obviously,it’s a comedy based off another comedy they were minor characters in. And the entire premise is two people are getting older and there is an entire fight based on a dude taking Viagra. The movie definitely should not be taken very seriously. It is just a fun movie,and that is all I expected. Best wishes and may the gaming gods bring you glory.
