I am not a big fan of teen comedies; most of them are just plain stupid. I thought American Pie and There's Something About Mary were pretty bad. I had heard the great reviews on Superbad and just had to see this. Both my wife and I laughed throughout, but I was almost on the floor.

Sure, some of the situations are unbelievable, but you could say that about a lot of classic comedy. Sure, there are some dead spots (the whole subplot with the cops gets a bit strained at times). But I can't remember laughing almost continuously, loud and hard in such a long time. I know I missed a lot of throwaway lines, and look forward to seeing this again when it comes out on DVD.

By the way, I am 53, and while I'm not a grandparent, I could be. Anyone who remembers high school after the mid-60s can relate to this movie. See it!!!!
