1/5 One of the worst movies I saw last year!
  by Jerry
The jokes were not appealing to me at all and I nearly fell asleep in the theater!

Easily one of the worst movies I have ever seen!

5/5 Stupid movie but fun.

I bought this movie because Reggie Young, the trombonist for Earth, Wind and Fire, plays on the soundtrack. It's a really stupid, teen movie but IS very funny. I don't think I'll watch it more than once (or maybe twice). I like the actual soundtrack CD much better than the movie but I don't mind it being in my collection.

1/5 The Title is Very Appropriate

Wow, 'Superbad' is just that...Super Bad.

For starters, could Jonah Hill be anymore annoying? All this guy does when he's not standing there with a blank look on his face is moaning and complaining about everything that goes on around him. That's his character...a whiner who groans about everything and is not remotely amusing when he's doing it.

Let's add in a couple of cops who are trying to impress another teenager by showing him how cool they are doing their job. Getting drunk at a bar, driving and then running into Jonah Hill with their cruiser. Ha Ha Ha. That's some great comedy right there. I might have given this another half star if Hill actually didn't get up or was hurt so badly he couldn't talk the remainder of the film, no such luck.

The basic premise of the movie is boys want to sleep with girls they like in high school and are trying to buy alcohol for the end of the school year party. That's good...it's an automatic money machine for teenagers everywhere. I just can't imagine how so many people gave this favorable reviews when there's one funny moment in the entire movie (at a bar when they loop a videotape of a kid getting clocked in the jaw).

It's not funny at all. Jonah Hill completely ruins every scene he's in due to the fact he might be the most annoying man on the planet and note to Directors everywhere: make your female teenage leads smokin' hot in movies like this...not Lindsay Lohan-like trailer trash.

There isn't even any skin shown here.

Just embarrassingly bad, really. Superembarrassinglybad, that is.

People should consider the word "Superbad" not as the film's title, but rather a description of the film. I wish that there was a way I could give this movie zero stars! It was AWFUL!!! And it was a complete waste of my time! (Two hours I'll never get back!) Thank goodness I didn't spend the money to see it in the theater!

The director spent all of his time on trying to make the movie crude and vulgar, rather than funny. Movies can be crude, yet still be funny, such as "American Pie." Well, "Superbad" was not one of those movies. I did NOT find it funny at all. In fact, the fat kid was so obnoxious and disrespectful towards women that he alone ruins the movie! I don't think I've ever seen a movie that insults the level of Human intelligence as much as this one does. I'm surprised and disappointed that today's high school and college youth would find this film entertaining at all. A monkey in a lab would require more intellectual stimulation than what this movie provides.

The dialogue is unnecessarily crude and vulgar throughout the entire film, and the plot is just not interesting. Basing an entire movie on three high school losers who try to impress a few girls by bringing alcohol to a party??? Great message to send there, Director. Not only does it send a very poor message to today's youth, but it is painfully unoriginal.

Don't waste your time on this film.

5/5 Superbad

This is one of my favorite movie of all time. This movie will have you laughing from beginning to end. Superbad is the kind of movie you would want to watch over and over again.
