Editor's Note
Director David Wain (WET HOT AMERICAN SUMMER) capably mixes the saucy and the sentimental in the bawdy boys-to-men comedy ROLE MODELS. Stuck-in-a-rut Danny Donahue (Paul Rudd) and womanizing man-child Wheeler (Seann William Scott) work together promoting Minotaur energy drink to high school students. But when Danny's girlfriend Beth (Elizabeth Banks) dumps him because he lacks maturity, his lashing out threatens to land him and Wheeler in jail. Their only way out is to act as mentors at Sturdy Wings, a Big Brother-esque organization run by reformed addict--and unrepentant flirt--Gayle Sweeny (Jane Lynch). There, Danny is paired with the decidedly dorky Augie (Christopher Mintz-Plasse) while Wheeler is the latest victim to take on foul-mouthed Ronnie (Bobb'e J. Thompson). After a bumpy beginning, both Danny and Wheeler connect with their kids over everything from sword-and-sorcery role playing to the chick-scoring power of the band Kiss. But when these two presumptive adults put their charges' well-being in jeopardy, they face both jail time and the loss of everyone's respect. With their own friendship on the brink of ruin, Danny and Wheeler--not to mention a little help from the magic of Kiss--must reach deep inside to prove to the world how responsible they can truly be. In the spirit of films like KNOCKED UP and THE 40-YEAR OLD VIRGIN, ROLE MODELS features a healthy dose of sharp humor and juvenile gags balanced by a feel-good message that growing up doesn't mean giving up what makes each of us special.

| Role Models - Blu-Ray DVD Review By: Dusty Somers - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 3/8/2009 5:37 PM | | Role Models doesn’t have Judd Apatow’s name anywhere on it, but it might as well have. There’s not much here to distinguish it from the recent spate of Apatow and Co. productions, except for the absence of Seth Rogen, and its men behaving like boys motif will be totally familiar to anyone who has seen any of said films. Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott star as Danny and Wheeler, a pair of energy drink pitchmen disguised as anti-drug motivational speakers. Wheeler is the typical Scott slacker character – carefree and satisfied with a dead-end job because of its minimal effort required. Danny is the typical Rudd misanthrope – pissed off at the world’s stupidity and dissatisfied with his life, despite his seven-year long relationship with his girlfriend Beth (Elizabeth Banks)....read the full review |
