Wendy Ide Times (UK) What it does best is nail the angst of people realising that the birth of their baby also means the death of cool. May 23, 2023 Full Review David Sims The Atlantic Byrne walks away with the film by making Kelly a well-rounded, conflicted person, rather than the film's fun cop who has to tell everyone the boring truth. Sep 22, 2016 Full Review Jason Bailey Flavorwire It may seem counterintuitive to praise the emotional maturity of a movie whose climax includes a dildo fight, but there you have it. Jun 18, 2016 Full Review Danielle Solzman Solzy at the Movies The raunchy gags might not stop but Neighbors is a laugh riot. Mar 14, 2021 Full Review Richard Crouse Richard Crouse Not so much a story as it is an idea played out in a series of wild gags, but good performances and some unexpected heart make it a cut above the usual frat boy fare. Rated: 4/5 Feb 1, 2021 Full Review Mike Massie Gone With The Twins Presents a talented cast and a premise brimming with potential, but manages to squander every opportunity for laughs. Rated: 3/10 Dec 4, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Ed R Hilarious comedy all the way through! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 10/17/24 Full Review Nikhil K Neighbors (2014) delivers a raucous blend of slapstick and wit that epitomizes modern American comedy. Seth Rogen and Zac Efron's unexpected comedic chemistry shines in this tale of suburban warfare between new parents and a rowdy fraternity. Director Nicholas Stoller expertly balances crude gags with moments of surprising heart, creating a film that's more than just a series of outrageous pranks. While the humor occasionally veers into over-the-top territory, the movie's energy and the cast's commitment to the absurdity keep the laughs coming. Neighbors may not be for the faint of heart or those averse to bawdy humor, but for fans of audacious comedy, it offers a thoroughly entertaining experience that stands out in the crowded field of R-rated comedies from the 2010s. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Jonathan K It's pretty funny but hard for the premise to stand up to even a 1h37m runtime. It just gets repetitive and overdone. But the cast is fun and if you're looking for some college humor laughs, it's a fun time. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/30/24 Full Review stephen b Reverse of what I was expecting in that the story was a little more than thought then I would have imagined. It just wasn't all that funny. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/16/24 Full Review Spring Hearted Tiger 6 Some of the scenes were pretty intense for a comedy movie, the fraternity guys were really loud and sociopathic, but the Radners and Pete were really nice, they provided some emotional depth to the story. Overall, I thought it was okay. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/17/23 Full Review Alec B I found it moderately amusing. Seeing Rogan play the "grown-up" his characters are always forced to become is a little strange, yet appropriate given his age. The concept of putting him into conflict with a younger generation is solid enough, I just wish more had been done with it. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 12/13/23 Full Review Read all reviews
