Review of Neighbors

Neighbors (I) (2014)
5/10
Bad Neighbours (a 15!!!!!)
23 May 2014
First the film is crude and rude, extreme and at parts immature - but I did I laugh at a couple of points.

Secondly, being an English graduate it's hard to imagine what level of fratboys culture (part of the films content) is actually true. I only hope that at least a percentage is true - and all these young American do have that much fun.

Thirdly, I didn't hate it, BUT I made sure from the start I didn't take the film to seriously, and I found it fairly funny. In the main Seth Rogen (Mac Radner) and Rose Byrne (Rose Byrne) did a goodjob at being the cute in love couple (in general you wanted them to win). The humour was on point - but obvious. Just before posting this I saw on IMDb lots of negative words - I have no idea why people are complaining about the content. When the saw SETH ROGEN did they think it he going to singing hymns and stuff???? Although on the one point I do wonder now what the hell you have to do to get an 18 certificate in 2014 - the film completely simplified the issue of drug as a teen age years and pushes quite a few boundaries. What do you have to do to be an 18????

Casting did well recruiting the world's cutest and best behaved baby of all time. Note to all non parents - Kids pick on your weakness - they know when you're tired. This is not at all real.

This isn't giving anything away but if you don't laugh at the airbags - you have something wrong with you. LordWagga
