Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
There are times in "Superbad" where Jonah Hill delivers a line so perfectly, so brilliantly, and so hilariously that is hurts. He's a comedic force of nature and is the reason why "Superbad" is one of the funniest and most re-watchable films of all time. Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg's script (loosely based off of their real-life experiences) is a perfect blend of jokes and heart that follows a reality high school friendship between two nerds who end up trying to prove themselves as big shots. Jonah Hill and Michael Cera have brilliant comedic chemistry and are a dynamic duo who I wish would collocate again in future comedies. Seth Rogen and Bill Hader as the cops who spend the night with the infamous "McGlovin" are funner than fun and add to the brilliance of this too-much-fun buddy movie that few comedies can dream rivaling.
'Superbad (2007)' is crude, coarse and quite immature but it's also undeniably and undoubtedly hilarious, providing plenty of laughs and thus succeeding in it's primary function - which is more than can be said for most so-called 'comedies' nowadays. Sure, it's low-brow and vulgar but no-one ever said that rude humour can't be amusing too and that's exactly what this is from beginning to end: an entertaining romp that races through its relatively thin plot without ever taking itself too seriously or compromising its story for the sake of extended improvisational routines. It actually comes to a close with somewhat of a moral lesson. It's truly funny, and sadly that's an adjective I rarely get to use any more. 7/10
After watching such great movies as "Crazy Stupid Love" and "The Help", I recently became a huge fan of actress Emma Stone. As such, I decided to go back in a time a bit to see what other movies she had done. I watched "Easy A" and still was impressed, so I decided to take a gander at "Superbad", as I am up for a "teen loser comedy" every once in awhile. The verdict? A complete and utter waste of time.For a basic plot summary, "Superbad" sees two teenage losers played by Michael Cera & Jonah Hill trying to party it up together one last time before heading to different colleges after graduation. Typical teen hijinks involving sex, drugs, alcohol, and cops ensue.The trouble with this movie is that it doesn't add anything new to its genre. There is nothing I saw here that I haven't seen in other similar flicks. While it is billed as "from the creators of Knocked Up & The 40 Year Old Virgin", this film can't hold a candle to either of those efforts. It is extremely vulgar, incredibly crude, and the jokes really aren't even all that funny. At it's core, this is a gross-out movie trying to pass itself off as something more (which it isn't).Thus, if you came here for Emma Stone (like I did), it isn't worth it in the slightest. Go watch her couple of scenes in the movie on YouTube and forget about it. You'll be much better off not wasting your time.
Superbad starts strong right out of the gate and it never lets up. Two teenage boys desperately want to lose their virginity before college and will seemingly stop at nothing to make sure it happens. The movie will absolutely remind you of similar antics conducted in high school, whether it be shotgunning beers in your parents basement or awkwardly learning how to communicate with the opposite sex. Jonah Hill's lack of filter is hilarious, as about one in every three lines he says in the movie would make your mother cringe. Michael Cera consistently lacks confidence throughout the entire movie, in typical Michael Cera fashion. Despite the light-hearted fun constant throughout the entire movie, Superbad does do a great job analyzing the struggles of maturity, feelings of inadequacy, and the persistence of friendship. I've seen the movie at least 10 times and I'm usually laughing so hard by the liquor store scene that I'm in tears. A timeless classic.
