Superbad has to be one of the best "day in the life" movies of the 2000's. It's funny as fuck one second, and fuckin' pathetically sad the next. You're not sure if you want to cheer for Evan and Seth, or knock them the fuck out. The soundtrack is one big party. Ted Nugent's Stranglehold, Van Halen's Panama, and Biggie Smalls' Big Poppa stand out, and when you hear each song, you immediately think of the scene the song correlates to. There's cool cops. Bill Hader is the motherfucker and Old School Seth Rogen is so much better than today's Seth. Flip phones. MySpace chat. Real conversations between guys and gals, instead of people looking at their phones, while trying…

"Two-time Academy Award Nominee Jonah Hill"

Review by Ryan Narc ★★★★★

Never seems to get old. Another one of my all-time favorite comedies.

Still have a pretty difficult time believing Jonah Hill went from this to now being a two-time Academy Award-nominated actor.
Review by Wesley R. Ball ★★★★★ 5

If you don't regard Superbad as Rogen and Goldberg's masterpiece, then you're dead wrong. It's a literally perfect modern classic that I'm unable to find fault in.

Review by Daniel Simpson ★

I had to stop this movie halfway through as I was bored out of my life. I got through 1 hour and 5 minutes of a 2-hour movie. the only reason I didn't stop it sooner is that Bill Hader showed up and I love Bill Hader, but even he couldn't save this movie. the "comedy" in this movie is immature and only 3 jokes landed for me while the others were just not funny or I didn't even realise they were supposed to be jokes until somebody laughed on screen. this movie hates showing you things if it does show you something it has to tell you as well. a lot more "jokes" in this movie would be better…

Theatrical Cut

”I'm so wet right now.”

”Yeah... they said that would happen in health class.”
Review by bigbywolf44 ★★★★½

its one the most genuinely comedic films in recent memory, it just makes you laugh through and through. it doesn't try and do anything else.
Review by Joel Harris ★★★

Did not manage to exert the same comedic teenage charm as this did for me a few years ago, but it is still an enjoyable giggle nonetheless.

The unfiltered depiction of teenage culture is nicely genuine to a certain extent yet it is still incredibly cringey, as a lot of the time Jonah Hill is absolutely insufferable. Yes we get that teenagers talk about porn and their dicks a lot but Superbad crosses the realism line, these remarks are usually shouted obnoxiously without anybody seeming to hear them, where in reality everybody would undoubtedly be listening in.

It's still funny
