This is from Hollywood Elsewhere.
"It's not a rumor: Superbad is a bolt out of the blue -- the funniest, most cleverly written youth comedy in I-don't-know-how-many- years, and it's going to be a huge money machine when it opens on 8.17. Produced by Judd Apatow and cowritten by Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg, it's a better teen-sex film -- funnier, wilder, more truthful -- than The 40 Year-Old Virgin or Knocked Up are in their respective realms.
It also marks the return of director Greg Mottola, who's been working steadily on television but languishing in movie jail since the success d'estime of The Daytrippers eleven years ago.
Superbad also heralds the arrival of the funniest comic trio since the post-Duck Soup Marx Brothers -- Jonah Hill (the sociopathic big-mouthed fat guy), Michael Cera (the bright, quiet, thoughtful guy) and Christopher Mintz-Plasse (the dweeby, pale-faced nerd). I'm serious -- these guys are the total dynamo right now. You should have heard the crowd laughing last night at the Arclight. The oil was blowing out of the ground and splattering everyone in sight."
