The Animal House of My Generation!

Rating: 8/10 (23 November 2007)

Seth: I joined this class because I thought I was going to be cooking with a partner. But she's never here, and I don't get twice the grades for doing all the work.
Teacher: I didn't invent odd numbers, Seth.
Seth: I know, but look at Evan. Just look at him.
Evan: (His partner is tying on his apron) Hey, don't keep me waiting much longer, I'm getting impatient up here.
Seth: I'm over here in my unit, isolated and alone, eating my terrible tasting food, and I have to look over at that. That looks like the most fun I've ever seen in my entire life, and it's B.S. - excuse my language. I'm just saying that I wash and dry; I'm like a single mother. Look, we all know home-ec is a joke - no offense - it's just that everyone takes this class to get an A, and it's bullsh__t - and I'm sorry. I'm not putting down your profession, but it's just the way I feel. I don't want to sit here, all by myself, cooking this sh__tty food - no offense - and I just think that I don't need to cook tiramisu. Am I going to be a chef? No. There's three weeks left of school, give me a f__ckin' break! I'm sorry for cursing.
'Superbad' is without a doubt the funniest movie of the year thus far. I describe it as the 'Animal House' of my generation. Filled with classic but extremely raunchy one-liners and a hysterical penis drawing sequence, 'Superbad' is practically a non-stop laugh riot from start to finish. Jonah Hill, whose been kinda held back a little in films like 'Knocked-Up' and 'The 40 Year Old Virgin', is absolutely hilarious in a role that kinda reminded me of myself in some ways. Michael Cera, whom you probably know from the sexually frustrated teenager in love with his cousin in 'Arrested Development', is equally as good and does a nice job of displaying his acting talents. The rest of the cast is all great including Seth Rogen, Bill Hader, Emma Stone and of course the actor who played McLovin who was a constant scene-stealer. The only down-side to Superbad is that there is some parts where it lags a bit, and the ending is a bit awkward. Besides that, 'Superbad' is extraordinarily entertaining and I recommend it to anyone looking for a fantastic teen comedy. Grade: B+
