Absolutely friggin’ hilarious! I don’t know what it is about Seth Rogen’s movies, but they are unbelievably funny – better than any other brand of comedy out there today. If you’ve seen the movie, the entire “McLovin” character is worth the price of admission and you know what I’m talking about! Here is a kid, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, who has never been in a movie, commercial, or even a short film before. He’s not a celebrity and he’s not a multi-million dollar actor. He’s just a nerdy looking young kid who played a character that leaves a lasting impression that is easily on par with Napoleon Dynamite. Mintz-Plasse was awesome!

And it wasn’t just McLovin that lit up the screen. Young actors Jonah Hill and Michael Cera are equally as great at their respective parts as soon-to-be high school graduates who are struggling with the fact that they are virgins. Now, don’t think that this is one of those wimpy teen movies where you’ve got some stupid drama storyline about the guy getting the girl and then a lame teen love song pops up in the background. Superbad is FAR from that type of boring, repetitive type of teen drama. FAR from it.

I have to give it to Michael Cera. His character on the too-soon canceled FOX series, Arrested Development, was classic. His constant self-guessing and self-unassurance (that might not be a real world) made his character (George Michael Bluth) one that you wanted to watch over and over and over again. And if you don’t believe me, go grab the first season of Arrested Development on DVD and you’ll see exactly what I’m talking about. Cera brings that hilarious, not-quite-sure of himself character to full force in Superbad.

On the other hand, the already widely known Jonah Hill reprises a type of character that he’s good at already; namely the loudmouth jerk friend. Hill and Seth Rogen (who plays a police officer along with Bill Hader) bring that same feel that you get in Knocked Up and the 40-Year Old Virgin to this movie.

A few months ago I said that Knocked Up would be one of the rare movies that I buy on DVD. Well, this summer has now seen two rare hits with Superbad right up there on the funny scale. I recommend this movie and – now that it has been out in the theaters for a while – you might be able to catch it playing without a large crowd or without a bunch of annoying people ruining the movie. I caution this, though: pay attention to the movie because you’ll miss tons of hilarious comments if you’re not focused on what’s happening!

Enjoy!
