Review of Neighbors (2014) by Josh L — 17 Oct 2014

While Neighbors is fairly entertaining, it goes so far over the top at times that I was disgusted more so than laughing. Seth Rogen is his typical self here, but Zac Efron is surprisingly well-matched in this with him.

I found Efron the funniest. Rose Byrne looks nice, but her and Rogen don't have much chemistry and the relationship isn't really believable. Dave Franco continues to do well in smaller roles. The rest of the cast doesn't do much.

I really was going to give this a rather positive review, but the last 10 minutes completely undermine everything that came before it. Therefore, I'm lukewarm on my feelings for this. Those that like the hard R comedies will love this.

I'm not usually too keen on them, but occasionally I find one I like (Superbad for example).
