Superbad is SUPERBAD!

Rating: 2/10 (18 April 2008)

literally, this movie was appalling. Apart from the character of Evan who is endearing partly because his voice is exactly like my cousins and god, he can actually act but the rest of the film...what was it even? A whole load of mess. Maybe that's the point, what with the obsession with sex and drunkeness etc etc. It was so unclassy. Maybe that's the point.
Plus there were absolutely no laugh out loud moments whatsoever. I kept waiting and waiting...but none came. And I guess it was supposed to have some sort of 'heart' in the middle showcased between to the two best friends but it just got muddled among the nonsensical rubbish and the whining of the fat Seth. Frankly, I'm sitting there thinking why am I watching this very unlikeable character whine and swear ALL the time. Jeez.
And the nonsense with that McLovin and the police. Dismal. Was that supposed to be funny? I just felt like Superbad should have been an animation a la South Park, not something that needed time or energy going on film. What a damned shame.
