Superbad (2007)

Film · 1h 53m · Rated R

Comedy

Two co-dependent seniors navigate a raunchy, cringe-filled night as their whimsical party plans go hilariously awry.

Campy, with raunchy humor. A date-night pick at a brisk pace. Emotionally it carries some weight.

What is Superbad about?

Two co-dependent high school seniors are forced to deal with separation anxiety after their plan to stage a booze-soaked party goes awry.

Does it have a happy ending? (spoiler-safe)

Bittersweet. It earns its ending, but not everyone gets what they want.
