Role Models sadly does fall for the cliche that little kids saying swear words is still funny, but still Paul Rudd, Sean William Scott and Jane Lynch give very impressive performances which is too much to resist. I give this movie 64%.

Lighthearted comedy that really is a fluff piece without much substance. Some funny spots but otherwise relies too much on sexual inuendo. Not much to think about as it appeals to all those who want to check their brains in at the door. Good Lighthearted comedy that really is a fluff piece without much substance.

It was ok. A little sad at times (when you relize just how pathetic the younger kids are) and the acting was alright. However it just doesnt really hit as good as it could have.

It was ok. A rather generic comedy if you ask me. Paul Rudd, Sean William Scott, and Jane Lynch give good performances in this and that is what really carries the film. Funny at times and corny at others.

Typical movie-for-the-masses with Jane Lynch stealing the entire movie with every scene she's in. Is Christopher Guest the only director in Hollywood that knows that?

The actors are the plus for this film, they do a great job. The characters are likable and well developed. The story lacks originality and it is predictable though. Fun but not very memorable

This movie is funny, really dies off towards the end though.

Some chuckles are guaranteed, but as with most new comedies it isn't about the jokes as much as it is about the crudeness and vulgarity. Role Models had the perfect set up for a great comedy and at times worked really well, but instead ofSome chuckles are guaranteed, but as with most new comedies it isn't about the jokes as much as it is about the crudeness and vulgarity.

WHAT I LIKED: An amusing tale that deals with some serious themes in a light hearted and fun way; there's some great relationship development too
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: The plot is it's biggest downfall as there isn't really one at all - it'sWHAT I LIKED: An amusing tale that deals with some serious themes in a light hearted and fun way; there's some great relationship development too
WHAT I DIDN'T LIKE: The plot is it's biggest downfall as there isn't really one at all - it's very basic and dull so the majority of the film is slow paced. Basically the overall idea of the film is very basic and struggles to fill a full film length
VERDICT: 'Role Models' is an easy watching comedy that isn't bad, but lacks the pace and snappy nature a film like this needs thanks to it's simple plot.… Expand

La película esta protagonizada por Paul Rudd (Danny) y Seann Williams Scott (Wheeler), dos promotores de una bebida energizante, entre sus viajes de promoción la crisis existencial consume a Danny y en su desahogo termina cometiendo un accidente con la propiedad privada de una escuela , por lo que ambos deben pagar con servicio comunitario siendo tutores de chicos problemáticos.
En general la comedia utiliza mucho el truco de hacer que los niños hagan cosas de adultos y parezca gracioso, además del humor adquirido de Seann Williams Scott y su forma de abordar a las mujeres.
Es entretenida, no es buena pero que sea corta permite que se disfrute bastante.… Expand
