Zac Efron is sometimes shirtless in his frat-life comedy with Seth Rogen, "Neighbors."

STORY HIGHLIGHTS

• Seth Rogen and Zac Efron have made a raucous, inspired comedy
• It's a frat-house flick also about trying to remain carefree in adulthood
• The critic gives the movie a B+ grade

(EW.com) -- Seth Rogen was recently quoted in an Entertainment Weekly magazine article as saying that there have been only one and a half good movies ever made about frat life: "Animal House" and the first half of "Old School."

I'd throw 1984's "Revenge of the Nerds" into the mix, but I get his point. Too few comedies have been able to capture the gonzo, bacchanalian spirit of the Greek system with some degree of wit.

Well, now you can add Rogen's raucously inspired "Neighbors" to the honor roll. It's a frat-house flick with more on its mind than beer, bongs, and beer bongs. It's also a razor-sharp commentary on desperately trying to remain carefree after the burdens of adulthood have taken over.

That’s an anticipated movie that I would like to see. I’m not a great fan of Zac Efron but I like the other actor: Seth Rogen.

A few months ago, I entered in the world of films. My father it’s a fanatic of cinema, and I have seen a lot of movies with him. Moreover, since I have discovered seriesly, I can watch any film that I like. So I want to see that film because like “Ocho apellidos vascos” I have seen announced on television and generate on me a little of curiosity.

I have already seen “Ocho apellidos vascos” and I really enjoy it, so know I’m waiting for that movie that seems really funny and interesting. If you don’t know the actor Seth Rogen, I invite you to see some films that he takes parts in, because he is really funny.
