Superbad Synopsis & Movie Info

Synopsis

From producers Judd Apatow and Shauna Robertson ('The 40-Year-Old Virgin'), screenwriters Evan Goldberg & Seth Rogen ('Da Ali G Show'), and director Greg Mottola comes 'Superbad,' a coming-of-age cautionary tale about two socially inept teenage boys about to graduate high school. Theirs is a ridiculously dependent friendship -- but now they've gotten into different colleges and are forced to contemplate life apart. Evan (Michael Cera) is sweet, smart, and generally terrified. Seth (Jonah Hill) is foul-mouthed, volatile, and all-consumed with the topic of human sexuality. This is the story of their misguided attempts to reverse a lifelong losing streak with the ladies in one panic-driven night... that awful, humiliating night you cherish for the rest of your life.
