This movie was actually a lot better then I thought it would be. It has a lot of heart and humour in it, from what would be a horrible situation to be in. It tells the story about Holly and Messer, who meet in 2007 on a blind date and it goes horribly wrong. They are both great friends of the couple who set them up and always seem to see each other through their friends events. When they find out their friends have passed away in a car accident, they are told that their friends wanted them to take care of the baby if anything were to happen to them. This is a shock to them but they decide to live together in their old house, so that they grant the wishes of their friends. Throughout the movie you see them, trying to raise the baby with often very funny results. It's a very sad premise but the humour does not make this movie depressing. I am curious to see if anything like this would happen in real life, with 2 friends who do not know each other well would raise a baby together for the sake of the child. Katherine Heigl plays a typical role here, of an overstressed woman who is unlucky in love and Josh Duhamel plays a guy with no responsibilities who ends up growing up in the end. Overall a fun movie to watch and will probably make you cry a bit
