A young couple (Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne) have just settled
into their roles as parents when a rowdy fraternity moves in next door (they
burned down their previous house, the first offense against the university’s
three strike policy). After ingratiating themselves with their new neighbors
and their hunky leader (Zac Efron), they are soon at war when the fratboys
learn the couple has phoned the police on them during one of their all night
ragers. Neighbors is more of the same
old same old boring bullshit, a brand of film that ceased being funny years ago
but continues to roll off of the Apatow assembly line. The film consists of a
generously estimated 1.5 laughs during its excruciating duration.
