Saw it after the massive hype it got when it came out, thought the cops and McLovin were funny but the rest was very meh, especially the main kid (not Jonah Hill) was annoying as fuck.

Recently gave it another go, pretty cringeworthy.

Overall 5/10

Any good comedies you guys recommend?
 
Yes, it was.

Tropic Thunder
 
Didn't think it was funny at all.

It just revolved around saying "dick" a lot.

I chuckled a few times, but it definitely wasn't the laugh-riot the press made it out to be.

Goes to show how mediocre most comedies are that a good one comes along and is lauded to the heavens.
 
Nobody gives a shit what you think.
 
I like the first half or so of the movie but it drags on.

Also if you watched an edited for TV version, it's not as good that way.
 
Superbad was hilarious and Michael Cera was fantastic in it. Once you kind of realize all their "shticks" it's not as funny but when it first came out it was hilarious.
 
who hurt you? to make you so broken inside that the hilarity of Superbad was lost on you?

it sucked/ the only scene worth a chuckle was francis the driver confrontation
 
Movie was superb. One of the best comedies of all time. Up their with 40 year old Virgin and Anchorman.
 
For Michael Cera movies, Scott Pilgrim Vs the World was wayyyy better.

Superbad had some laughs too though.
 
I didn't think it was that funny, but I was still entertained by it. The only parts I chuckled at involved the cops but the rest of the movie was still enjoyable. You are allowed to enjoy movies even if you aren't laughing (even if they are comedies).
 
Yeah, I didn't find it funny either. And I found the fat kid kinda gross with his plan to get the chick wasted in order to sleep with her. Yeeeeaaah, not my thing . . .
