If you get past the first 15 minutes it's not too bad!

Rating: 8/10 (27 September 2012)

In the first 15 minutes of this movie I wanted to turn it off. It was just a bunch of obligatory swearing and had no value at all. If you can get past the beginning though it turns out to be a decent comedy worth watching.
It is the usual teen movie story line. A group of teenage losers hatch a plan to buy alcohol for a party in order to impress girls and lose their virgin status. Now, I saw a problem with the cast already. Michael Cera seems to be only able to play the same boring, nerdy, over thinking, teen character in every single movie he is in, and Jonah Hill is not much better. The usual nasal boredom of their voices usually makes me want to shoot myself for listening the to movie going sheep who love these movies. I watched it anyway and found it to be a pretty funny movie.
It turns into a teen misadventure movie that is rather well crafted and a fun ride. Fogel "McLovin" (Christopher Mintz-Plasse ) is definitely the best character in the movie, and Bill Hader and Seth Rogan make great appearances as bored cops out or a little fun.
It IS a basic teen movie but the misadventures make it worth watching and it actually met the expectations that a lot of people touted. Again, if you are an average person of adult age that doesn't spend every waking moment of your life playing video games and smoking pot, it may be hard to get through the beginning, but from then on out it will still have some good comedic value.
