Film review (Superbad)

Superbad

After watching the trailer for Superbad I was completely ‘psyched’ to go and watch it. When friends came back raving about how funny the film was , I dragged my unenthusiastic parents out to go and see it. After the first 5 minuets I was regretting watching it with my mum and dad.

This is a rollercoaster ride of bad language, underage drinking and mad cops. As best friends Seth and Evan try and hook up with there dread girls.

This film portrays teenage life accurately but greatly exaggerated with the girls trying to get booze for a party and the lads trying to get laid.

When the complete loser and super geek Foogell (Christopher Mintz Plasse) gets knocked down by a man trying to rob a liquor store, which he had unfortunately chosen to try and buy alcohol from with fake ID. He is asked to write a witness statement by two crazed police officers. This simple seeming task turns itself into police chases, arrests and drunken cops.

Seth and Even are best mates; Seth is a quiet, unconfident character who knows right from wrong. Even is the confident rebellious character who has got used to being able to overpowering his best.

These two contrasting characters make a hilarious couple and will have you in stitches!

Superbad is aimed at the older teenager and young adult. I would not advise you to watch this film with your parents as the first 5-10 minuets dwells casually around teenage masturbation and pornography!

Superbad is a classic comedy and I would certainly recommend it to you if you liked ...
