Seth Rogen is a rather amusing actor. And surprisingly, so is Zac Efron.
Rogen and Byrne play a young, exhausted couple having to deal with a young baby. They move into a new house that seems perfect, until they realise that it's slap bang next to a College Frat house. Efron plays Teddy, the bad boy leader of the fraternity, who can't stop having parties. Every night.
At the beginning, he is quite amenable when the couple ask him to keep the noise down, even inviting them in to the party, where they temporarily bond over a huge amount of drugs. But soon the noise is intolerable, they are getting no sleep, snapping at each other and finding it hard to function. And Teddy couldn't care less. Until he finds out that they called the cops on him.
Soon it's not just a friendly neighbourhood spat, but war, in the most extreme degree.
Some scenes are very amusing, including when the boys have a Robert De Niro themed party and all appear at the couple's door in various different outfits.
I liked it, although certain parts are utterly ludicrous and over the top, but that's really all you can expect from one of these sorts of movies.
