Seth Rogen – 10 Best Movies

By Vlad Zakh · March 9, 2026

Knocked Up and Superbad built a comic voice that’s loose, sincere and grounded even at its most raunchy, and Steve Jobs shows a rare straight dramatic turn. Steve Jobs plays Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, An American Pickle gives him a dual role as a 1920s immigrant and his great-grandson, Neighbors wages war with a fraternity, and The Interview plots to interview North Korea’s leader. Pineapple Express, This Is the End, Sausage Party and The 40-Year-Old Virgin round out the list.
