Official Site

Synopsis: 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.

Critique:

When you first see the trailer of this film you think....oh God, not another one... But, it is actually a pretty @@%#@$$ decent film. It has fun characters and some great comedy moments.

The two-disc version is packed with extra raunchy goodies— many of them are as entertaining as the film itself, if not more. The production is not an "intelligent" teen movie. It is all about the farce, and it works. It's a great flick if you are looking for a little comic relief.
