“Bad Neighbors” Gave Me Some Laughs
In “Bad Neighbors,” which comes out later this month, Seth Rogen and Rose Byrne play Mac and Kelly, new parents who go to war against the college fraternity that have moved in next door. Head of the frat pack is Zac Efron (pictured) as Teddy, a sweet-natured lunk who doesn’t want to keep the couple’s baby awake, but can’t pass up an opportunity to party. Zacqeesha is pretty dull for the alpha-male leader of a group of marauding teens (he should have watched James Franco’s performance in “Spring Breakers” for inspiration), but his support, including Dave Franco as his big-brained lieutenant, Pete, and Christopher Mintz-Plasse as “blessed” numbskull Scoonie – pick up the slack.
