There was a surprising amount of heart in this irreverent and sometimes insensitive comedy. It was a little cheesy but kind of nice that Seth and Evan got the girls they were both hot for but didn't have sex with them. In other movies, I might have been annoyed by this, but I liked it here, maybe because it contrasted the tone of the rest of the movie. I could tell pretty early on that Seth would not be able to get with Jules like he wanted to. It just would have felt wrong if his plan had gone through because his motivation just seemed completely selfish and sex-driven. Evan and Becca's situation kept me in more suspense. It surprised me that she liked him and didn't need to be won over like I had suspected. The closing shot with the Seth and Evan watching each other go their separate ways was really a nice way to end it, even though it did feel a bit cute and cheesy.It would be wrong to say that this movie is realistic, but there were a lot of things that I thought it did right to make it more true to life. Most of the time when shy high-school guy characters are featured in movies, they are shown as almost completely socially incompetent or awkward or shelled in (see the 2002 Spiderman, Freaks and Geeks, Sixteen Candles, or Perks of Being a Wallflower for examples). Seth and Evan seem to be somewhat in touch socially, though not as much as they would like to be, and are kind of mean at times which felt more realistic. This is the only time I've seen Michael Cera not be awkward on screen. Even Fogell, who is closer to the stereotypical nerdy guy, is more socially bold than I had expected. Yes, they are all awkward at multiple points, but Seth and Evan are both sort of friends with Jules and Becca prior to the events of the movie. Another thing that felt true to life was the mellowness of Jules' party. They didn't feel the need to make the party completely raucous and trash the house like in 10 Things I Hate About You, or Sixteen Candles, or 21 Jump Street.This wasn't one of the funnier comedies I've seen, but that's a matter of taste. I laughed pretty frequently throughout and I can see how it could easily be certain people's favorite movie ever. As you might suspect, there's a lot of off-color jokes that you might not laugh at if your mom was watching it with you. One could argue that it's unnecessarily crude, but the crude jokes are at least pretty clever most of the time and not just thrown in as a cheap way to get laughs. Seth Roger and Bill Hader as the two cops were really fun to watch. I would say it's good if you like 21 Jump Street, but it's not as loud and doesn't have action. It's definitely nothing deep or anything you have to see, but it's not a bad view into the life and struggles of two teenage friends. Overall Rating: 7.5/10.

Well, I like Michael Cera because he played in another great movie I love called Juno. He's a phenomenal actor and he plays his parts very well, so I thought I would check this one out as well. I wasn't into this movie or it's humor that much. It had some good parts to it, but most of it was just so unreal (especially the police officers, are you kidding me? So unlawful!). Anyway, Michael Cera played his normal self, just like he did in Juno. But Juno was memorable compared to this one, which I probably won't remember. I'm not saying the movie wasn't watchable because it was and I watched it from beginning to end. It just wasn't my kind of enjoyable movie. What's not right for me though, may be exactly what's right for many others. That's why variety is good. So don't take my opinion here too seriously because it could be very irrelevant to many who go for this kind of flick. Just watch it and form your own judgment. A good average and decent 6 Stars from me!

Nicely set up the comedy plot, but sometimes the characters are getting too predictable and too boring. but screenplay writer tried hard to make laugh , friendship shown in the movie was good, . from the starting it was actually too late for the comedy, like we were eagerly waiting to laugh cause it is a comedy film. then incidents came situation of laughter was created, but neither there was any humor nor wit.overall a good teen-adult movie for laughing.

Michael Cera and Jonah Hill are High School geeks who want to get laid before they go to college but the problem is they are nerds.However they find themselves invited to a party given by supercool Emma Stone as long as they bring the booze and thus they attempt to awkwardly buy alcohol whilst underage with the aid of supernerd Christopher Mintz-Plasse and his fake id of McLovin.It is another bad taste comedy in the vein of American Pie or Road Trip, sporadically amusing and silly especially when Seth Rogen and Bill Hader turn up as two uber weird cops.The film rather meanders along with the boys misadventures in their final days of high school knowing that they will go their separate ways at college.There is genuine sweetness with the vulgar comedy but it is also too sporadic and I was never convinced that these teenagers will get the attention of any of the ladies.
