Superbad - Movie Review

Jeff: 'Superbad' is partly right (it’s super)

Plot: Seth (Jonah Hill) and Evan (Michael Cera) are friends who are never apart. As high school comes to an end they have to deal with going to different colleges. Suddenly, they are given the task of providing alcohol to a party, and they look at it as their last chance to be in the cool crowd. They get Fogel (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) to use his fake I.D., but that only complicates things when he runs into two cops (Bill Hader and screenwriter Seth Rogen).

Who's it for: This is tailor made for college kids but should appeal to a wider audience as long as they can get past the language.

Expectations: With Seth Rogen (“Knocked Up”) writing the script and Michael Cera from “Arrested Development” involved, I was excited. Plus, there was HUGE buzz about this being the funniest movie of the summer. That actually made me nervous because when someone tells you that you’re about to see the funniest movie ever, it normally doesn’t live up to the hype.
