Not surprisingly, some of the guys who wrote Superbad are producing this movie, after all, the plot is nearly the same. Three foul-mouthed tweens are trying (without any luck) to impress girls by skipping school, using the internet for advice, and attending a party. Naturally, everything that CAN go wrong, does! * “Bean Bag Boys…
Don’t ya hate it when your worst enemy becomes your only ally? Yeah, that’s an overused movie trope (Catch Me If You Can, Star Trek Into Darkness, etc), and now it’s with animated birds! In this sequel to the 2016 hit movie, it looks like those angry birds and those pesky porkers have to team…
