Cera reminds me of a young Tom Hanks, I think he could go places.

Who was the boyfriend of period girl at the party? He looked really familiar.

Shit, I didn't hear that! Laughter drowned out a few of the lines.

I saw this today and the movie was hilarious. The line about "my back is on my cock" had the audience laughing so loud I couldn't even hear the dialogue in the movie. It was great.

I loved the line about Orson Welles. I think I was the only one laughing.

i know it was very hard to catch if you really didn't pay attention bc Cera says it quieter than most lines, but if you do it is great.

I thought the movie was damn funny, but we had one of "those guys" in the theater that had to repeat out loud every funny line from the movie.

I didn't find the movie super funny, but then again, I had the probably the opposite theater experience than most people ... only two other people in the screening at the time. Probably more of a crowd movie ....

Same exact thing happened at my theatre. I was the only one laughing at the Orson Welles joke.

(That's the kind of humor I felt Knocked Up had a lot more of. Superbad essentially was a movie full of very good dick jokes).

He was Leo's cousin in The Departed. And has been in like 60 movies, so yeah.. anything is possible.

For some reason the line "Suck dick at fucking pussy" got a huge delayed laugh from me.

I saw this on Sat. night with my chick. I think I found it to be a lot funnier than she did, but we both laughed our asses off. We missed a lot of other lines just from laughing so damn much. I loved Jonah, but that might also be because I loved him in Grandma's Boy. The penis drawing were killing us, especially the ones at the end. I'd give it an 8/10.

I caught that part and laughed even louder.

Saw it the other night with my gf. Loved it. Didn't laugh as hard as I did during Knocked Up, but laughed more often.

Thought the cop scenes dragged a bit at times though.

And the idiot parents that sat behind me with their looked-to-be-about-10-years-old daughter should be arrested for child abuse.

Tell me about it! I'm only 19, but I saw a what looked like a family with very young teenagers come see this movie. I couldn't believe it. I won't even let my almost 17 year old sister see it.

Saw it last night and loved it. I think its on the same level of comedy as Knocked up.

My favorite line had to be the "Samesey" coment

Ironic considering she probably uses vulgarities with her friends and probably sees a lot more than what we as an audience saw with the party scene near the end of the film.

I see no problem with this. My GF took her 14 year old sister. This is high school stuff, teenagers should be very familiar with this humour. The writers started writing this film when they were 13 after all. I don't have problems with any teens seeing R-rated stuff aslong as they are respectful of the theatre going experience.

Anyway, definitely the best of Apatow productions, but thanks really to the having the two strongest leads.
