Mini Movie Review - Superbad

Two words: Fucking hilarious. Move over Knocked Up, Superbad is the funniest movie I’ve seen this year. And soundtrack kicks ass. I should warn you though. Where Knocked Up was profane, but showed situations from men’s and women’s perspectives, so women could probably relate to it, Superbad is very profane and is TOTALLY from a man’s perspective. So I’m not sure how much the ladies are going to appreciate it.

The fine folks over at Filmspotting said something very appropriate in their review of Superbad: it takes really smart people to make good dumb comedies. Then producer Judd Apatow, writer/producers Seth Rogan and Evan Goldberg, and director Greg Mottola must be geniuses. And actors Jonah Hill (part of Rogan’s band of merry misfits in Knocked Up) and Michael Cera (George Michael from Arrested Development) are brilliant. Cera especially has mastered looking awkward for comedic effect. Overall the whole cast does a great job delivering the brilliant gags that Rogan and Goldberg came up with.

Here’s one of the kick ass funk tunes from the soundtrack (featuring none other than Bootsy Collins himself):
