SUPERBAD ***

This is a rude, crude and highly profane coming-of-age comedy starring: Jonah Hill (Seth), Michael Cera (Evan), Christopher Mintz-Plasse (Fogell), Bill Hader (Officer Slater), Seth Rogen (Officer Michales), Emma Stone (Jules), Martha MacIsaac (Becca), and Aviva (Nicola).

The plot involves three high school seniors (Seth, Evan and Fogell) heading out to obtain liquor for a party using a phony I.D. They hope by providing the drinks for the party they'll get lucky with the objects of their desire (Jules, Becca and Nicola) and have girl friends for the summer before they leave for college (thus providing them with some experience they desperately need). Things don't quite go as planned and Fogell ends up riding around with Officers Slater and Michales while Seth and Evan try another approach at obtaining the necessary booze.

I suspect most who read my reviews are older than the target age for this film which is late teens and college age. I can assure you this group will absolutely love this film. Older patrons can plan on being surrounded by the younger ones and may have difficulty hearing the dialogue over the laughter. The language is continually profane and sexually graphic but I don't remember any nudity. What makes this film work is the likeability of the characters and the recognition that many of the situations involved are not entirely improbable. The closest comparison movie I can think of is Porky's. I should also point out the end credits have some of the most unusual graphics you'll see in a film. If you're in the right mood and you're old enough, this is definitely worth the money.
