Such a frustrating disappointment

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

Excellent characters with emotional depth. My wife, daughter and granddaughter all enjoyed it...and me, too! Very good movie! You won't be disappointed.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

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.

One of the best comedy films I have ever seen. A perfect movie to suggest at a party or with your friends, definitely not family friendly. Perfect rendition of teenage high school life and what that looks and feels like. Went in with low expectations that it was going to be a simple gross-out flick with a lot of "I'm swearing, isn't that funny" type humor, but was blown away by how funny the writing and acting was. Hilarious, and kind of touching, the B-plot with the cops made this movie for me. Highly recommended film that I think most should see if they want to know what a good comedy is.

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.

Michael Cera and Jonah Hill are High School geeks who want to get laid before they go to college but the problem is they are nerds.However they find themselves invited to a party given by supercool Emma Stone as long as they bring the booze and thus they attempt to awkwardly buy alcohol whilst underage with the aid of supernerd Christopher Mintz-Plasse and his fake id of McLovin.It is another bad taste comedy in the vein of American Pie or Road Trip, sporadically amusing and silly especially when Seth Rogen and Bill Hader turn up as two uber weird cops.The film rather meanders along with the boys misadventures in their final days of high school knowing that they will go their separate ways at college.There is genuine sweetness with the vulgar comedy but it is also too sporadic and I was never convinced that these teenagers will get the attention of any of the ladies.
