So my mom asks me if we could go see a movie together. The movie she suggests for the first time in years is also a Seth Rogen movie. Then on top of that she suggested we take my grandmother of 79 years. So, needless to say, my apprehensions were high. I had assumed that either it would be vulgar and I would love it but my ma and grandma would hate it OR it would be so watered down that they would love it and I would be bored stiff (granted two of my grandmothers favorite movies are The Patriot and Man on Fire). I was way wrong on both accounts. This movie pushes the boundaries of PG-13 so much that I forgot what it was rated but did it so tastefully that three generations of my family were laughing out loud in the theater. I think for me it had a few personal touches because I am coming to know my family as an adult and realizing they aren’t these perfect beings we apotheosize as children but they are people that make mistakes, do goofy things and laugh at occasional swear words…even if they don’t let you see it. If you miss it on the big screen I think it will be ok because the comedy will also work on the small screen so don’t miss it on DVD/Blu Ray.
