Review of Role Models

Role Models (2008)
7/10
Brilliant comedy
6 June 2009
Was way better than I thought it was going to be. I usual expect most American comedies to have the usual plot line and this one sounded no different. Some good work from the dependable Paul Rudd, Sean Willam Scott and especially (McLovin) Christopher Mintz-Plasse and Bobb'e J. Thompson who make it into a pretty decent comedy. After going off the rails in a boring job, the two adults are given the chance to avoid jail by mentoring some difficult kids in the community. The results and ending are rarely ever in doubt so there is not much in the way of spontaneous laughter, but in general its not quite as bad a film as some might make out, certainly worth a watch, just not a list topper.
