Superbad (DVD)

I had such high hopes for this movie after laughing several times during the trailers I caught at the cinema on several occasions.
How disappointed I was at this DVD.

This movie is full of constant and unnecessary swearing all the way through. The humour is not as frequent and as side-splitting as I hoped it would be. I had the impression that this would be a funny teen movie along the lines of American Pie, which is constant humour and the odd swear word for comedy value. Superbad goes too far in the opposite direction with too much profanities and not enough funny moments. I was very surprised and completely disappointed by this movie.

Unfortunately this is all BAD and no super at all.

Not that good The 40 year old Virgin and Knocked Up where better and funnier in my opinion.

A film for the Lads more than the Ladys.

Comic gold which entwines the trouble's of adolescent drinking and geeky hilarity. Fogel (Mintz-Plasse), Evan (Cera) and Seth (Hill) complete the trio which the plot is centered on and provide witty one liners that will have you in stitches.

The storyline is around one thing that alot of the audience will be able to relate to, the trouble of alcohol. Seth is coerced by beautiful and persuasive Jules (Stone) who is intent on throwing a party to say farewell to her peers, with Seth convinced it is a subtle undertone for something more sexually orientated. Evan however, prefers the more subtle approach which makes it even the more funnier with confrontations between the two providing some amusing arguments.

Fogel on the other hand, well that lad is on another planet. Intent on just having a good time, he probably has the best attitude to all of this with the free will to act before he thinks, which makes it even more the funnier for the viewer. The decision to choose his name on his fake i-d as Mclovin' is one of the best parts of the movie and this single part makes watching the movie worthwhile.

Overall this is a must see movie for movie goers who claim to be in-touch with the adolescent angle on life as it certainly delivers on all fronts in the comic department. Get it on DVD and make sure you watch the extras as they are brilliant...

Superbad revolves around two co-dependent high school seniors (Hill and Cera) who set out to score alcohol for a party, believing that girls will then hook up with them and they will be ready for college. But as the night grows more chaotic, overcoming their separation anxiety becomes a greater challenge than getting the girls. -Official Site

I think Judd Apatow is the modern recreation of Midas. Everything he touches is comedic gold. Breaking out with The 40 Year Old Virgin and Knocked Up, Apatow has proven that he knows comedy. Lending a hand as a producer for Superbad, Apatow lets veteran TV director Gregg Matolla helm this one. Add Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg as writers to the mix, a few well placed cameos, and you have the recipe for one of the summers funniest, if not crassest, comedies. Even I, as a 30-ish male, can see parts of myself in each and everyone of these characters. While not having had quite this outrageous of an adventure, I have had nights that resemble this in my younger days.

First and foremost, I have got to talk about Jonah Hill. The boy is a rising star and steals almost every single scene that he is in. Next up is Christopher Mintz-Plasse’s McLovin, er, Fogel. This kid is the epitome of dorkiness and yet seems to have the best time out of all the kids. Who wouldn’t have fun hanging out with cops, drinking and shooting guns all night long? Out of the three main characters, Michael Cera seems to be the weakest link. For most of the movie he comes off as an effeminate little boy who needs to show some courage, and while that is what the movie is about, he never really does it. Things just kind of end up working out for him by the end of the film. How can I review this film without mentioning Seth Rogen and Bill Hader as two cops who just want to be cool. Well, they are extremely funny, but all of their antics took me out of the movie for a bit. Extremely un-policemenlike behavior that would never fly in the real world.

I fought it was going to be another American Pie Rip off, but this film brings in it own style. Do not get me wrong its one of those over the Top silly American Comedy's but clever with it at the same time.

Its from the Maker's of Knocked up & one of my favourite comedy film's ever the 40 Year old Virgin.
It has some Great character's like the 3 main super geeks Whose story this revolves around & 2 Cops which get the best lines & will have laughing throughout the film.

We have seen this sort of film before Geeks chasing girls & somehow ending up with them right at the end, but nonetheless this is a highly entertaining comedy.

7/10

Superbad includes some of the funniest clever humour I have seen in a long time with some pretty stupid dialogue occasionally that cant help but make you laugh. It has injected some life into the same old teen movie genre and the writers of this should be proud but they do seem to be knocking out films like a single mom on the chatsworth estate from Shameless (Channel 4 Television). For this film I think there could have been more laughs without it getting repetive or boring, and maybe its just that I expect something like this to be more prolific and really push the boat out. Leave me feeling completely satisfied and for a short enjoyable watch, the film did. I just want something with the comical genius of this to really change comedic cinema. Overall the film is definately worth the watch and one of the best of the genre this year!

From the guys 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 hook up with girls they like before they head off to college. To do that, though, they need to get alcohol 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 (Seth Rogen and Bill Hader) while attempting to reverse a lifelong losing streak in one hilarious night.

This is one of the best comedies of the year. Interestingly it takes the concept of a buddy nerd teenagers flick and rather than having all three in every scene together all the time, it lets each individual follow thier own path. Up there with N.Dynamite. It is refershing to go to the cinema and split yourself in two with laughter!

Brilliant film, great seller. Got it to me quicker than i expected. Well worth buying from this ebayer and he does what he says and promises.
Thank you and i can assure you i will probally buy something from you again

From start to finish- This Film is Funny as F**k!
If you've never seen it-But it NOW!!!
You will not be sorry, I promise!

This film is one of the funniest I have ever seen!!
i love all Seth Rogan stuff and this one is no exception.

I would have to say one of the best comedies i've watched during my time, i'd say second to only to Pineapple Express. But Superbad is definately a film you'd want in your collection.

A good 'brain-off' comedy film. Easy to watch and has some very funny parts, especially those following the two cops.
If you don't want to think too much and are looking for a bit of fun and are reasonably broad minded then this film is for you.

ot normaly my kind of movie, the run of the mill teoming of age nonsense. This however, is a cut above the rest. The kids playing the characters are actually the age their supposed to be, rather than the norm of 27 year olds trying to play a 16yr old. What you'd expect from the storyline but it's the conversations that make this film. It doesn't rely on silly situtional comedy you can see coming a mile off, but relies on witty, very entertaining chat. If you feel like a good laugh, I highly recommend this movie.

hilarious movie, had us all in stitches all the way through it. it was a friend who recommended the movie so that was why i decided to buy it, and that was when i realised why he recommended it!

thanks very much for this film watched loads of times THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

its GREAT!
bought it as i was recommended it. drags on a little but worth watching at least once...or twice.

Well where do i start? Superbad is incredible. One of the funniest films in existence. The characters fit so well with the story and are all funny in their own way. You couldn't really expect a bad film if you find that it's written by Seth Rogen, also starred in knocked up, 40 year old virgin and pineapple express (which may i say is very good too). Any american pie or any other teen comedy movie fan will enjoy this classic, fro,m beginning to end laugh after laugh, packed full of gags. 5 Star!

Or man i love this movie! "She's DTF! P in Va G" ...
Thanks alot for the mega quick postage!
I will deffo be keepin an eye on your items.
thanks
