I really enjoyed Superbad and I get the comparisons, but I honestly thought this movie was better. I will say thought that it's not quite as funny, but it lacked the heart and sincere emotion this movie had. And no, it's not just Superbad with women. It was one of my most anticipated movies of the year and one of the most hyped, did it live up to the massive hype? I would say it absolutely did. I thought it was a great coming-of-age film consisting of amazing performances from the two main girls (one of them is actually Jonah Hill's sister IRL) and the characters were very well-developed, and surprisingly not one-dimensional. This was a very good directorial debut for Olivia Wilde and succeeded in making a fantastic movie, while also putting a new spin on the high school comedy genre. I loved the chemistry between Beanie Feldstein and Kaitlyn Dever, the two were great together. And Billie Lourd was also very funny. Overall, a hilarious and heartwarming coming of age comedy that I highly recommend. My Final Rating: 8.5/10
