QUICK TAKE:
Comedy: Having previously survived a fraternity moving in next door to them, a married couple must now contend with a sorority doing the same, all of which threatens the sale of their house.
PLOT:
Mac (SETH ROGEN) and Kelly Radner (ROSE BYRNE) live in a nice house in a nice neighborhood with their toddler daughter, Stella (ELISE VARGAS). Yet, they're ready to move, what with a baby on the way, and they've found buyers, but are in a 30-day escrow period. Things look good for clearing that, what with their previous run-in with Teddy Sanders (ZAC EFRON), Pete (DAVE FRANCO), Scoonie (CHRISTOPHER MINTZ-PLASSE), Garfield (JERROD CARMICHAEL) and others of the party-hearty Delta Psi Beta frat house next door now long behind them.

Unbeknownst to them, college freshman Shelby (CHLOE GRACE MORETZ), Beth (KIERSEY CLEMONS) and Nora (BEANIE FELDSTEIN) -- upset to learn that only fraternities go throw parties on college campuses nationwide -- have decided to create their own sorority off-campus, and the former DPB house is currently empty. Even more shocking and operating out of revenge against the Radners, Teddy has decided to be the consultant for Kappa Nu, and the partying begins immediately. What follows is a battle of the wills and various attempts to undermine the other side, with Mac and Kelly calling in their married friends Jimmy (IKE BARINHOLTZ) and Paula (CARLA GALLO) to help them battle the girls, all while also getting an unlikely ally in the form of a former enemy.

WILL KIDS WANT TO SEE IT?
If they're fans of the first film, they probably will.
WHY THE MPAA RATED IT: R
For crude sexual content including brief graphic nudity, language throughout, drug use and teen partying.

I have subscribed to ScreenIt for more than a decade. I check in every week to take advantage of their amazing services. Not only does their site provide a glimpse of exactly what content a movie offers, I've found the “Our Take” reviews and ratings for each movie to be right on the money every single time. I've referred dozens of friends to this service because my #1 resource for deciding whether or not to show a movie to my kids, or to see one myself, is ScreenIt.com!

I signed up to get Screen It weekly reviews a long time ago, when my kids were young and I wanted to know more about movies before we went to a theater or rented. Now one child is in law school, other in undergraduate, and I still read the weekly Screen Its! It helps me know what my husband and I want to see or rent, and what to have waiting at home that we all will enjoy when my "kids" come home. I depend on Screen It reviews. They usually just present the facts and let me decide if the movie is appropriate or of interest for my family and me. Thank you for providing that service, Screen It!

I have 4 children who are now in college. I signed up for Screen It when my children were pre-teenagers. Often my children would ask to see a movie with a friend and I wished I could preview the movie prior to giving permission. A friend told me about ScreenIt.com and I found it to be the next best thing to previewing a movie. The amount of violence, sexual content, or language were always concerns for me and my husband as we raised innocent kids with morals. We constantly fought the peer pressure our kids received to see films that in our opinion were questionable. With the evidence we received at Screen It, our kids couldn't even fight us when we felt a film may have been inappropriate for them to watch. Thank you, Screen It. Continue to make this helpful service available to everyone, but especially the young parents.

Screenit.com is an amazing resource for parents, educators, church groups or anyone who wants to make an informed decision whether a movie is suitable for their viewing. The reviews and content descriptions are so detailed I am mystified how the reviewers can put them together.

I love screen It! I don't know what I would do without it. It is well worth the membership. Before we take our son to the movies we check it out on screen it first. Thank you SO much for making it. Keep up the good work & keep 'em coming!!!
