Re: 2007 Film List
Superbad
8.5 of 10
Similar in plot and humor as Knocked Up and 40 Year Old Virgin (including having sex in order to get good at it for when it matters), the film falls just short of those 2. The raunch didn't bother me but it was over the top and unhelpful in many instances. What makes it a great comedy is the strong blend of outrageous situations and truly sincere emotions behind the lead characters, again similar to the 2 previous films.
The result can best be described as a quality version of American Pie or a 2000's version of the classic "one night as a teenager" formula comedy. Seth Rogen again steals the show along the way.
