Amusing but Overlong

Rating: 7/10 (4 July 2010)

Nerdy high-schoolers attempt to get in with the hip crowd by promising to supply booze for a party. The cops played by Hader and Rogen are funny, particularly in their first appearance as they investigate a robbery. Other comic highlights include the whole business with the fake ID and the somewhat disturbing segment about young Hill's obsession with the male organ. While it has many amusing moments, it goes on much too long for a comedy. The filmmakers attempt to make the scenes of male bonding touching, but they are rather contrived and lame. It's also hard to buy that a young woman like Stone will have anything to do with someone like Hill.
