Sex Comedy Roundup

[snurri]

Knocked Up: meandering, plotless, and not all that funny. Except when Paul Rudd is onscreen.

Superbad: sweet, vulgar, and not all that funny. Pretty great nonetheless, though. The film equivalent of Doing It, with fuckup cops thrown in. Michael Cera is slowly becoming a hugely important actor, at least for me.

Both films are worth seeing if only to see Martin Starr aka Bill Haverchuck all grows up in a stoner beard and all. Give that man a starring role!!

Now if we could just get a sex comedy in which the women get to play equal parts.

I really liked The 40-Year-Old-Virgin, but it feels like Apatow is now mining the same vein over and over again. Which is a shame, because his show, Freaks and Geeks, had a lot going on in it.
