Two salesmen trash a company truck on an energy drink-fueled bender. Upon their arrest, the court gives them a choice: do hard time or spend 150 service hours with a mentorship program. After one day with the kids, however, jail doesn't look half bad.

GrimPrecise I'll tell you why so serious
JinRoz For all the hype it got I was expecting a lot more!
Lightdeossk Captivating movie !
Lela The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
bkoganbing Role Models is certainly something Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott never aspired to be. These two have a gig going around to various schools, Scott in the costume of the legendary Greek mythological creature the Minotaur and Rudd delivering an anti-drug pitch to our middle schoolers with some energy drink called the Minotaur which is liquid sugar. Creating a diabetic crisis for the following generation to deal with.After a presentation that lays an ostrich egg these two get into an altercation with a tow truck operator it's jail or community service with a big brother type program run by Jane Lynch.Rudd gets to bond with Christopher Mintz-Plasse a nerdy kid who is into live action Mazes&Monsters type role play and Scott draws Bobbie J. Thompson a kid with a sewer mouth that repels everyone else.The film is the story of how it works out for both men and the surrogate little brothers they've drawn. All coming nicely together in a very funny in a park where both men and young Thompson get into Mintz-Plasse's live action medieval tournament.Rudd and Scott really get into their characters or maybe I should say they build a bit of character in themselves and their charges. It's a nice comedy brought off well by a fine cast.
Arvin Solsona This film is Rated-R comedy film to which I thought it would gonna be more than just Rated-R film. I'm a huge fan of great Rated-R comedian actors, Ken Jeong from Hang Over Film and William Scott from American Pie Series. It's very awful that I find this film completely absurd, boring pun lines, cliché dialogue, cliché story lines and nothing's new with the film. Or maybe I was just got out of context on the whole concept of the Movie.There were no surprised at all. It's bad how the film doesn't reach my expectation to where I got confused and asked my self, what am I watching? I don't know if the film is longer a comedy or inspirational drama. I think that they should've changed the film to inspirational film instead of comedy film since comedy actors weren't fit for the film.
Johan Dondokambey The story is quite good. It departs from a commonly found situation that many people can relate to, and gets to focus really quickly. But despite the good and uncommonly found premise of being an example to kids, the movie is in fact not for kids. Besides that, there are more than enough frames about body parts that are definitely not for kids. Though some of them are weird and just plain odd, the jokes are actually fun to see. Paul Rudd acted just at an average performance, though he managed to get the calm mood portrayed. Sean William Scott is comfortable and is actually quite like at home depicting a carefree womanizer. Instead I like how Elizabeth Bank's performance turned out to be. She really gives it a nice addition into the whole picture.
kai ringler 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.
