If You're Here For Emma Stone: It's Not Worth It

Rating: 1/10 (9 March 2017)

After watching such great movies as "Crazy Stupid Love" and "The Help", I recently became a huge fan of actress Emma Stone. As such, I decided to go back in a time a bit to see what other movies she had done. I watched "Easy A" and still was impressed, so I decided to take a gander at "Superbad", as I am up for a "teen loser comedy" every once in awhile. The verdict? A complete and utter waste of time.
For a basic plot summary, "Superbad" sees two teenage losers played by Michael Cera & Jonah Hill trying to party it up together one last time before heading to different colleges after graduation. Typical teen hijinks involving sex, drugs, alcohol, and cops ensue.
The trouble with this movie is that it doesn't add anything new to its genre. There is nothing I saw here that I haven't seen in other similar flicks. While it is billed as "from the creators of Knocked Up & The 40 Year Old Virgin", this film can't hold a candle to either of those efforts. It is extremely vulgar, incredibly crude, and the jokes really aren't even all that funny. At it's core, this is a gross-out movie trying to pass itself off as something more (which it isn't).
Thus, if you came here for Emma Stone (like I did), it isn't worth it in the slightest. Go watch her couple of scenes in the movie on YouTube and forget about it. You'll be much better off not wasting your time.
