"Knocked Up",is knot a radical romance but a knotted confusion.

The movie "Knocked Up" follows all the traditions of a romantic comedy and possibly follows the form of the old fashioned sex comedy along the lines of Doris Day and Rock Hudson. The two main characters in "Knocked Up" are constantly clashing with each other. They are in conflict and their situation propels the conflict throughout the entire movie. It is a typical, traditional scenario of boy meets girl, boy pursues girl, boy gets girl. The "boy" changes and evolves in order to please "the girl". They resist being a couple but in the end they become what is considered by moral standards "typical."
