Day 25: Superbad


"Its like a three thing..its like ball, dick, ball. It's like a division sign... "

There are only a few selected films I have seen more than 5 times, and this movie is one them. I have watched this so many times I know every line and it still makes me laugh. Greg Mottola does a good job in directing his movie debut and it wasn’t hard to guess that Seth Rogan wrote this. Mottola hasn’t done much since Superbad, in fact all he has done is Adventureland which was an average movie. None the less it’s going to be tough to beat Superbad.

The movie is about 2 unsociable boys Evan (Cera) and Seth (Hill) about to graduate from high school and get ready for College. They both get invited to a house party which Seth has agreed to buy the alcohol for everyone, one problem…he’s underage and has to rely on his intolerable nerd friend Fogell (Mintz) who’s just bought a fake ID to buy it for him. Along with the quest on buying alcohol Evan and Seth both have girls they want to have sex with and this party is their only chance of getting them drunk and taking advantage of them. Did I mention Fogell befriends 2 police officers and agrees to have a wild night with?

I have fallen in love with Cera, Hill and Christopher Mintz-Plasse because of their acting in this movie along with Seth Rogan who I love even more. They all play their roles superb and the amount of wit and sarcasm in this movie is just my type of comedy. Michael Cera’s awkward teenage role makes you cringe at times and Jonah’s “don’t give a crap” attitude makes the pair hard not to like. All of the actors have gone on to big things from this movie and this was kind of the making of them.

There are too many funny parts in this film to talk about and I don’t want to give too much away, but this movie will defiantly have you in stitches. It's defiantly one of my favourite movies of all time and if their is ever a Superbad 2 which i know there is talk about it, i will be first in line to watch it.
