superbad was superbly amazing.

Rating: 10/10 (10 March 2008)

One of the few movies in general that I not only had to see the weekend it came out in theatres, but also had to buy on DVD and watch numerous times over and over again, many times with friends.
It's truly a comedic masterpiece, but not in the stupid, mindless way most films about teenagers are. It's funny because people can really relate to the characters, either seeing themselves or their friends in them. The acting in it is amazing, it introduced a whole new generation of quality comic actors, most notably Michael Cera, whose role as Evan is sweet, charming, and endearingly awkward. However, the audience favorite--admittedly, mine too--was Christopher Mintz-Plasse as McLovin, the ubergeek who infiltrates the adult world by essentially being in the right place at the wrong time. The comedic timing, however, is immaculate. Superbad is worth watching...over, and over, and over again. I also recommend getting the extended version DVD, because the extended features are almost as hilarious as the movie itself.
