"McLovin in the f*cking house!"

Rating: 10/10 (30 July 2008)

According to the release dates listed on this site, 'Superbad', aka 'Supercool' in my country, was released in October 2007 in my country then in that October I didn't know what to really expect from a new release of the Apatow Company since then I haven't already watched 'The 40 Year Old Virgin', 'Anchorman', etc. But also I always felt desires to check specially this one yet I never went to see it on the big screen and once my cousin said to me that it was not that cool as everyone was saying together with the fact that later I saw 'Juno' (also with Cera) and later 'Drillbit Taylor' (also from Apatow Company) were enough things to lose most of those desires to watch 'Superbad'. Now I think about a month ago I finally saw 'The 40 Year Old Virgin' and that's a great and hilarious comedy so it was kind of "I understand that the stoner of this film is the writer of 'Superbad' and that sometime ago I had desires to watch it so what the hell". Right now I'm not disappointed because I laughed, and a lot in some parts, but here in IMDb we can read many commentaries praising the film in an excessive way so I'm afraid that it is not that cool, let's say that it is just cool.
As, for mention one, 'Dazed and Confused' this film is about only one day, focusing more on the night of that day that seems to be the last chance for 3 boys to lose their virginity before college. So is just about how the writers can make the most possible situations in order to make a longer, tired and surreal day for the 3 boys. In that the really funny character McLovin (Chris Mintz-Plasse) and the two cops (Bill Hader and Seth Rogen) are the funniest thing of the film and practically at a point those three are the "soul" of the film. In the other hand or better in other part of the town we have the "adventure" of the two main characters. One of the two is an extremely annoying guy who is talking s*** all the time and who used to draw pictures of man d**ks at the age of 8! The other main character has his first appearance in a film to later meet a girl named Juno in his second. This two have some hilarious dialogs in their daily conversations (the Coen brothers don't direct porn!!!) but as soon as they left McLovin everything turns to be less funny so at a point is like "forget those guys and let's have some fun by watching McLovin and his new and hilarious pals". After they meet again with badass McLovin everything is like the conventional teenagers picture, having problems with the alcohol and with the girls after a fight between the two to finally end the night both really drunk and confessing their love to, by he morning, be friends again. Maybe was the only possible way to end this film since and as Seth Rogen claims on the DVD documentary, "our filthy brand of humour has become mainstream" or something like that.
Conclusion: I do recommend this film if you are looking for a funny entertainment. It is not the near masterpiece of comedy that some persons are claiming on this site but those who are claiming that it is a film only for stupid persons well simply go f*ck yourselves. Anyway check this picture because and after all McLovin in the f*cking house!
