Superbad

Jonah Hill and Michael Cera are high school seniors and lifelong best buddies Seth and Evan, misfits on the bottom of the high school pecking order, on a quest for booze to impress the girls of their dreams in the raucous and raunchy comedy from producer Judd Apatow and director Greg Mottola. Christopher Mintz-Plasse is the even geekier third wheel Fogell, an engaging spaz whose fake ID reads, simply, "McLovin," and Bill Hader and co-screenwriter Seth Rogen play a pair of staggeringly gullible cops. Underneath the precarious adventures in grown-up-land is an undercurrent of frustration, panic, betrayal and issues of self-image, all hormonally heightened and intensified by the separation anxiety of impending graduation. But don't worry, that doesn't get in the way of the raunchy humor and the unabashedly hilarious, uninhibited overkill of Seth's porn-obsessed streams of profanity. Available in separate R and unrated versions (the latter with four additional minutes of footage).

The commentary with Mottola, Apatow (accompanied by his preteen daughter), Rogen, Hill, Cera, Mintz-Plasse and co-writer Evan Goldberg, is amiably raucous and then descends into raunchiness. Among the many supplements are 12 minutes of deleted and extended scenes; the 30-minute squad car improv featurette "Cop Car Confessions" with Rogen, Hader and a series of backseat guest stars; and video footage of table reads from 2002 (with Rogen reading the role of Seth) and 2006. Exclusive to the unrated two-disc edition are menus featuring Seth's phallic doodles, "The Music of Superbad" featurette with Bootsy Collins and his fellow funksters, 17 minutes of on-set video diaries, audition footage, an unbilled cameo by director Edgar Wright ("Shaun of the Dead") as a blithely clueless interviewer in "Press Junket Meltdown," and more. Also available in Blu-ray format.
