Note de Decko_koji_obecava
As high school movies go, this is actually pretty good. A simple, fun, and occasionally, but thankfully only occasionally, contrived story. The movie, in general, is a little too much in love with itself, and whoever edited it let certain scenes run too long. I could've especially done with a little less of the cop duo towards the end - Bill Hader and Seth Rogen over-improv many of their scenes.
And that's pretty much that when it comes to the movie, however there's a bigger issue that rubs me.
Since "Apatow Inc." now comes out with like 4 movies every year, each with basically the same cast and similar shtick, it's almost impossible to view "Superbad", or any of his other movies for that matter, independently of the whole lot. And that's kinda too bad 'cause due to the volume and basic sameness of these films you can by now pretty much tell from a mile away where the joke is gonna come from in almost every scene.
I thought the Farrelly Brothers overdid it with their pace of "same comedy every two years", but this guy is relentless. He's in the year three of his big time Hollywood movie career, and already he's got like 12 movies. Take it easy, dude, the whole thing is getting kinda old.

"The Italian Job" is pretty to look at. The material shot by the production crew is in excellent focus - no blurriness or nuthin'. And ...... uhm, did I mention it's nice to look at?
Mindless entertainment that seldom actually gets entertaining, this movie's lone asset is the beautiful photography. Italian Board of Tourism must've been very happy, and the English one probably didn't mind either since, according to this movie, even the underworld in their country during the 1960s was one big day at the beach.
To put it in fourth grade reading level terms - did I enjoy this film: well, I guess I did, somewhat. Would I recommend it to someone I care about or would I want to watch it again any time soon: hell no.
Well, on an uplifting note, some good did come of watching this. At least now I know where Guy Ritchie got/stole the idea for the ending of "Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels".
PS: Kudos to Michael Caine for doing "Get Carter" two years after this. He definitely managed to redeem himself.
