One of the most funniest movies of the decade!

Rating: 10/10 (29 July 2010)

The plot is simple, but what comes in it is incredibly hilarious! Plot: Evan (Michael Cera) and Seth (Jonah Hill) are best friends in their last year at high school. Both are going to college, sadly they're gonna to different ones. And both of them virgins. So in one day these funny and non popular teens want to get laid as fast as possible, joining in some crazy parties trying to have sex with the popular girls of their class. But to enter in this party they need to buy lots of alcohol and with the help of the rejected and nerdy Fogell (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) and his fake ID they're gonna provide everything they can. But it's not that easy, and this three boys are gonna have a lot of trouble and we as audience are gonna laugh over and over again.
What makes this movie so good? Anyone can relate to one of the characters easily. It is similar to movies like "American Pie" but it has some single aspects that really makes the difference. In "American Pie" movies sometimes there's some unfunny joke, some things that doesn't work all right, maybe a joke was too hard to laugh it and sometimes the characters are quite offensive, not funny and difficult to relate with it. One thing that is dumbfounding in "American Pie" is this: All of the characters are self confident, good looking boys and they're always on the run trying to get some hot chick. In the real world you really can look at Seann William Scott (Stifler) and thinks "he could get a girl easily". With that I point that this movie is not realistic at all. Now in "Superbad" you have a fat and funny boy with a incredibly taste for dirty jokes; a shy and cute boy with no skills for talking with girls without blushing; and a nerdy with a strange sense of confidence. This three musketeers on a almost impossible task. Well, the reality factor counts sometimes and in this one helped the movie be what it is: real funny!
In "Superbad" 99,9% of the jokes has some original aspect and everything works. The dumb characters and the funny conversations are well written and not a single moment is wasted or not funny. And you can watch it over and over again even knowing everything what happens and still think that this is hilarious and enjoyable comedy.
One thing that received the biggest amount of complains on the boards here was Michael Cera singing Guess Who's "These Eyes". Many thought that this scene was ridiculous and pointless and all that. Let me say this: people you are SO WRONG about that. It is one of the most funniest moments EVER. Since this is a teenager movie released in 2007 most of the teen audience (I think) really don't know the song and doesn't even know how difficult is to sing it. And one can think: Why he choose this song to sing? I sing better than he but he really was funny doing that, making the sounds of the keyboards and singing badly.
Between the funniest and weirdest moments are: Fogell using his fake identity with the name of McLovin; Seth being hit by a car; Fogell/McLovin hanging with the irresponsible and funny cops (played by Seth Rogen and Bill Hader); the strange party where Seth and Evan were taken by the guy who hit Seth; Evan talking on the phone with Becca, the girl he desires; the singing moment. I guess everything was funny and I couldn't stop laughing. All the actors were excellent in their parts notably the three boys and the cops. Here you have comedy professionals doing their best. One of the best teen comedies I ever seen along with the John Hughes's films. It really says a lot about teenagers and portrays them with some accuracy I must say. Badass! 10/10
