Seth Rogen and Zac Efron clash as Neighbors in this family vs. frat movie.
But for raunchy laughs, we all win.
So, excuse them if they want therightkind of neighbors.
You know, like that nice looking multi-cultural gay couple with their own newborn checking out the next-door home.
Neighborsis that laugh-out-loud sleeper comedy that will play all summer long.
Luckily, this doubleheader farce can lean on solid casting in both residencies to elevate the situational archetypes.
As Mac, Seth Rogen gets to covertly follow-up his character fromKnocked Upwith a more affable co-star.
He also develops an instant rapport with the said fraternitys debauched leader, Teddy Sanders (Zac Efron).
But the real show stealer in this movie is Byrne playing the temporarily bored young housewife Kelly.
For a genre that is typically dominated by the guys movie, Byrne isNeighborssecret asset.
These stronger elements help forego that the movies somewhat basic premise takes a long time to get going.
