Nos pires voisins

A really uncompromising comedy. Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne are as hyped as if they’ve gone through five trips already and the entire thing has a fairly swift flow. I must admit that it took me a while to get used to them, while Zac Efron and his Beta fraternity immediately grew on me. But in the midst of all of the craziness and brutal jokes, I realized that there is no outright good or bad side here, which made me really happy. And even though Zac Efron is a proper jackass in this movie, you still think of him as a boy living his dream. And that ending takes it to new heights of “realistic”. The entire time, I was watching a comedy I didn’t know what to make of, but the ending assured me that I really enjoyed it. I believe that in the end, it will all click and you’ll either get really excited about the movie or you’ll be shaking your head, thinking how idiotic everyone’s been acting. But you mustn’t be such a grouch; it’s a comedy, after all, and this one definitely has its fair share of humor. (06/09/2014)

Unlike the trailers, from the very beginning the Neighbors adopt an unusually friendly way of getting to know people and, due to one innocent betrayal, that vengeful rodeo begins where they go all the wall and airbags throw the fat guy through the air. A surprisingly pleasant Efron and the domesticated Rogen bring us an entertaining romp where the only innocent character is the little girl who dons Hesienberg’s boiler suit in the final scene. What an awfully cute kid. (30/08/2014)

L’une des plus grosses déceptions de cette année. On peut voir toutes les meilleures scènes dans la bande-annonce et le reste du film ne fait qu’osciller entre situations pitoyables et blagues ratées. En plus, Seth Rogen et Rose Byrne ne vont pas bien ensemble, là où Zac Efron convenait plutôt bien à son rôle. Rose ne devrait pas gaspiller son temps à ce genre d’âneries et ferait mieux de tourner la sixième saison de Damages… (14/10/2014)

At first, I didn't like it at all. I'm not a fan of Seth Rogen because he's just the same everywhere. However, he and Rose Byrne were a perfect match and it worked for them. Once the young ones appeared, it worked even better. There were some good jokes, the characters were well-preserved, and there was also a boring moral message at the end. For me, it's not a groundbreaking comedy, but it's certainly not terrible. (15/07/2014)

Incredibly crude, moronic and repulsive. But if I ignore those attempts at acting and focus on the movie itself, I have to admit I had fun from start to finish, which can't be taken for granted with American comedies lately. (27/08/2014)
