Don't waste your time or money

Rating: 2/10 (1 February 2008)

If you have a couple of hours to spare, then don't waste them seeing this movie.
We have seen it all before - the quest for the more nerdy boys to get lucky with the pretty girls at high school, and their "wild" antics trying to do so. And that pretty much sums up Superbad. But it seems like that the scriptwriter(s) didn't have many funny lines or ideas to work with, so inject the script with swearing just for the sake of it - doesn't add anything or convey much, but what the heck? It takes up some more screen time, and maybe the 12 year olds this is geared to will have a giggle! Also there is an annoying sub-plot involving 2 policemen and one of the main characters.....its just so over the top and another part of this movie which rather than funny, found to be irritating and unnecessary.
Apart from that, not much to laugh at - and when you did, there is a long time between funny parts, so I found my mind wandered and desperately wanted this movie to finish to put me out of my misery.
