Almost every single one of Judd Apatow’s films consists of a man, who is worthless, either stoned out and is a huge gamer. However at the end of the film, time after time, that man is turned into a mensche. A mensche in Jewish terms is a responsible man, that takes care of himself and his family. Which means in a Apatow film, the man is worthless but is transformed into a mensche. For example in the film, Knocked Up, the lead male, who is not that attractive and responsible gets a woman, who is responsible and beautiful pregnant and slowly takes on responsibilty of their un-born child. Even though this movie is somewhat of a romantic-comedy, it sheds a lot of light to people that have gone through situations similiar to that.

Knocked Up and other Apatow films are rated- R because of the sexual content, mature language, and alcohol and drug use. These sort of movies do have good family values but should not be watched by children and young teenagers. Another film from Apatow is 40-Year-Old-Virgin, where an older man acts like 12-year old buy but slowly transitions into an adult with the help of his friends and a woman he likes even thought he goes through embarassing disasters.  These movies are coined as romantic comedies and I do agree because both men and women enjoy this style of movies. These movie are very realistic, since these situations can happen to anyone.
