10 Neighbors
Retitled Bad Neighbours in the UK firstly to correct the American spelling of ‘Neighbors’ – what is this terrible fear of the letter U? Is it a Sesame Street thing? – and also to assure British viewers that this wasn’t Ramsay Street: The Movie.
Wisely opening at the very beginning of May, this Seth Rogen comedy enjoyed a huge $49m first weekend, strafing The Amazing Spider-Man 2 in the process. A perfectly decent affair, this frat-boy caper was something of an oasis as far as comedies were concerned this summer. Adam Sandler’s Blended and Jason Segal’s Sex Tape all died at the box-office as violently as Seth MacFarlane’s Million Ways.
