Bad Neighbours review (2014)

I am a big fan of Seth Roger comedies and I have finally had the chance to see bad neighbours and it is another hit for this group of comedians.

This premise sees a couple with a newborn child that have a frat house move in next to them. As they attempt to take care of their child a battle ensues between them and the frat house.

Now people criticise Seth Rogen because they believe he is the same character in everything and that is true but he is really good at it. I think he is really funny and this film is no different as he is great and his chemistry with rose Byrne and Zac Efron really helps carry the film.

Now Zac Efron has had an interesting career so far but this is the film that is easily his breakthrough. He is really funny but also gives a performance that makes you feel a little sorry for the character and like his character even though he is really seen as the bad guy of the film and that takes talent. I knew rose Byrne was funny but this was the film where she really hit here stride and delivered a hilarious performance and she is a character that you would love to hang out with. I feel a little sorry for Dave Franco because he is clearly the less talented of the Franco actors but he was funny in this film and he did the annoying character well.

The Story was alright with the contrast between the two groups being interesting and the simple cranking being funny. I just wish that the film had a little more drama to it to make us care about these characters a little more.

The script is great with allot of quick witted dialogue that made all of the characters funny and made them easy to laugh with and like.

The style works for this film and the absurdity does a good job, however some times it gets a bit ridiculous and does take you out of the film.

Overall this is a great film and if you are a fan of comedies like this you should definitely see it.
