I like Black Panther, but I didn't like this movie.

A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."

The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

I've liked this movie since it came out in 2008 I remember renting the DVD once it came out I always watched it when it was playing on TV. So fast-forward 8 years into the future, I'm now a university student studying film, In class and the teacher tells us that we are going to watch a movie, we walk into the screening room and the teacher plugs his hard drive full of movies and asks us what movie we want to watch. The obvious choice here would have been back to the future, but Nooo the people in class are apparently too stupid to realize that we would have to work on the movie after we watch it and they picked role models, a movie that even though not bad is plainer than a slice of white bread. Back to the future in the other hand is a bloody masterpiece. Rarely do you ever see a movie that takes such complicated concepts and conveys them in an easy to understand manner while still being accurate. The characters are amazing off the bat I understand and sympathize with all of them and I feel like I want to see them succeed. The script is awesome, foreshadowing stuff that's going to happen in the past and has some amazing dialogue. The special effects are as good as they are iconic(except for jaws 19 cause the shark still looks fake). I think I could ramble about this movie for way more that a pages but my point is that neither of these movies happen to have any similarities to Garfield: A tale of two kitties so that's why I give the movie two stars

Watch this if you want some thick guys' humor for a night with a couple of buds or whatever, it's manufactured fun for you so it can't be a disaster as long as you're totally permeable.It's not as good as often promoted, lots of the film relies on two-way semantic humor, the typical sexual innuendo type, the usual despondency of the modern working man tired of his life and generally cynical, there's a bit of social commentary in the mix what with parenthood and all...It's okay, but as a more structure-oriented critique, as central to the whole plot as it is surely this film spends too much time in the geeky role-playing realm there. A casual comedy fan looking for some guys' fun shouldn't have to sit through so much footage of that, and one certainly must ask the question whether this targets the young 25-30 year old adult or the much younger prepubescent audience because those two are not the same.4.5/10.

There's something about watching a movie that has Sean William Scott in it,, I don't know if it's just because he makes me laugh, or it's just all of the raunchy humor he brings to the table.. in this one him and Paul Rudd are paired together, they wreck their truck into a school statue, and are faced with a 30 day jail term. but one of them makes a deal with the judge and they wind up with 150 hours community service,, the judge decides to enroll them in a big brother program, and they have 30 days to complete the program. the two little brothers are one that's obsessed with boobs,, and the other is into live fantasy role play games. This movie is a tale about 2 30 something men growing up and taking responsibility for someone else instead of themselves ,, actually heartworming to a point,, very funny movie though.

Role Models is a good movie with an enjoyable storyline and a great comedic cast.I did enjoy the movie, it had plenty of very funny scenes, but plenty of scenes that wern't do funny as well.I was honestly disappointed by this movie ,the cast was very promising, especially Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott,two hilarious actors together in what seemed like such a great set up, but it really just didn't live up to my expectations.Seann William Scott's character was definitely my favourite and I also really liked and Bobb'e J.Thompson's character was also one of the funniest.There are certainly several funny moments but also some not so funny moments,however , I would recommend Role Models to anyone looking for a fun comedy.Two irresponsible salesmen are priced to act as unlikely role models for two wayward kids.
