Superbad was a roller coaster movie of the good, the bad, and the geeky

Rating: 7/10 (25 August 2007)

I saw Superbad yesterday with my boyfriend, I have to say that I was absolutely not interested in seeing Superbad, it seemed like just a typical Revenge of the Nerds type of film that would probably have some lame jokes. But I wanted to see it with an open mind, so I thought just to let go and have fun. This also seemed like it would be a cult classic down the line somewhere. Superbad starts off as it would seem to be another American Pie type of film where it's nothing but sex jokes that could at times be a little obnoxious, I was giving up hope, but then Superbad quickly picked up and turned out to be overall a great movie that is sure to be another teen sex comedy classic.
Seth and Evan are two high school boys who are about to go their separate ways after graduation. They are pretty much the losers of the school and are dying to get an awesome reputation as well as a couple of hot girls. Seth gets invited to his crush's party, but when he mentions his friend, Fogell, is getting a fake ID and now he is the one who has to get the liquor. Well, Fogell gets the ID, his name is now McLovin' and is supposedly 27 years old(even though he looks like he couldn't be more than 12 years old), he manages to get away with buying the liquor, but right at the worst moment, the place gets robbed and now he has two cops who just wanna party with him. In the mean time Seth and Evan are on their own and end up at a gangsta's party where they get in big trouble trying to get alcohol, but it's a question if they can make it to the party and still be the awesome guys that made the party a memorable one.
Superbad is a great movie and one of the best comedies of the year, no doubt. McLovin' and the cops truly made this movie memorable and had such great chemistry. I really loved their scene where the cops want to "make it up to McLovin'" and drag him out of the party like he was a wild animal. You'll see what I mean when you see the film. The film starts off kind of stupid, but really warms up and ended up being a great film to watch. I can't wait for the DVD, I would recommend you seeing this film if you are looking for a great comedy.
