    Intermittently hilarious if also interminable. show more

    The Hollywood Reporter

    Some of the patter is funny, but the movie lacks the clever plot developments and the character nuances of a classic like "American Graffiti." And it's missing the belly laughs of earlier raunchfests "American Pie" and "There's Something About Mary." show more

    What's most memorable, most striking about Superbad is the canny evocation of male friendship in all its richness and complexity. show more
