Editorial Review: From the guy who brought you Knocked Up and The 40-Year-Old Virgin comes SUPERBAD. Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) want nothing more than to lose their virginity before they head off to college. To do that though they need to get liquor for the big party that night. With the help of their friend Fogell a.k.a. McLovin (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) and his fake I.D. the three of them go on a hilarious chase for that elusive booze dodging incompetent cops (Knocked Up's Seth Rogen and "Saturday Night Live's" Bill Hader) angry neighbors and jealous boyfriends. Hailed as an "iconic comedy...a true classic of its times" (Pete Hammond Maxim) SUPERBAD is a laugh-out-loud masterpiece!"System Requirements:Run Time: 119 Mins.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: COMEDY/SCHOOL DAYS UPC: 043396238176 Manufacturer No: 23817
Striking a balance between raunch and sweetness is a tall order for any film, but the Judd Apatow-produced Superbad manages to serve up both in equal and satisfying portions without undercutting a consistent stream of laugh-out-loud performances and gags. Michael Cera (the sublime George Michael Bluth from Arrested Development) and unstoppable scene-stealer Jonah Hill (Apatow's Knocked Up) are lifelong pals who attempt to make up for years of obscurity by getting into one blowout party before parting ways for college; an opportunity presents itself in the form of Hill's crush, the lovely Jules (Emma Stone), who wants the boys to bring liquor to her shindig. What follows is a combination road adventure and coming of age story as Cera and Hill tackle crazed partygoers, a pair of overeager cops (played by co-scripter and producer Seth Rogen and Saturday Night Live 's Bill Hader), and the hard truth about girls and their own emotional bond. The humor is crass and occasionally gross but never mean-spirited, and Cera and Hill offer believable performances as guys wholly unaware of their own potential, yet ready to risk humiliation in order to find out. They're well supported by a cast of Apatow regulars, including Kevin Corrigan, Martin Starr, David Krumholtz, and Carla Gallo (and Stone and Martha MacIsaac are terrific as their love interests), but the film is completely shoplifted by newcomer Christopher Mintz-Plasse as their uber-nerdy pal Fogell, whose fake ID handle is among the movie's funniest gags. Classic funk fans should also keep an ear out for the score by Lyle Workman, which features such James Brown and P-Funk veterans as Bootsy Collins, Bernie Worrell, and Clyde Stubblefield. --Paul Gaita Stills from Superbad (click for larger image) !-- end6pak -->

Rating: - A movie you've seen a hundred times before
Apparently, the only story Hollywood knows how to tell about teen agers is one in which young men who talk about sex all the time want to have sex. While that may be true for some (or even many), it is not the entirety of teen life.
Superbad follows in the dismal footsteps of all of its predecessors, including resorting to stock characters who have worn out their welcome, especially the obnoxious fat friend whose conversation is so riddled with pathological, obsessive sex talk that ... Read More
Rating: - The movie lives up to it's title!
This has to one of the worst teen movies I have ever seen!I guess you have to under 30 years to like it.This film seemed as though much thought wasn't given at all.I am a fan good teen movies ,but this wasn't one of them.
Rating: - "Superbad" goes into the pantheon of great teen-angst flicks
Greg Mottola's "Superbad," co-written by Judd Apatow alums Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg, goes into the hallowed pantheon of great teen-angst comedies like "16 Candles," "The Breakfast Club," and "American Pie." A lot of filmmakers make "teen movies" by throwing some T&A together with some hijinx, but most forget the heart. "Superbad" has heart, in spades.
The movie focuses on the relationship between two fast friends, Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera, of "Arrested Development" ... Read More
Rating: - Cracked Up
Funny,funny stuff. The movie covers a day in the life
of three kids who want have some fun before school is out.
Potty humor to be sure - but it makes me laugh.
Lots of extras. The table read is cool. The commentary
is a bit of a mish-mash, with alot of people talking
at once - or about non-superbad stuff. For me it was
a must have.
Funny,funny stuff.
Rating: - Kind of Funny!
This Movie got too much hype, It wasn't better than the 40 year old virgin, but it was WAY BETTER than "Knocked Up". It wasn't horrible but I expected it to be "super funny" it was just kind of funny. Worth Watching though.
