… More »Danny and Wheeler are two salesmen who trash a company truck while on an energy drink-fueled bender. Upon their arrest, the court gives them a choice - the two can either do hard time or serve 150 hours of community service in a mentorship program. After one day with the kids, however, jail doesn't look half bad. Once the center's ex-con director gives them an ultimatum, Danny and Wheeler are forced to tailor their brand of immature wisdom to their charges, Augie and Ronnie. And if they can just make it through probation without getting thrown in jail, the world's worst role models will prove that, sometimes, it takes a village idiot to raise a child.

Quotes
Add a QuoteDanny: Can I get a large black coffee? Barista: A what? Danny: Large black coffee. Barista: Do you mean a venti? Danny: No, I mean a large. Barista: Venti is large. Danny: No, venti is twenty. Large is large. In fact, tall is large and grande is Spanish for large. Venti is the only one that doesn't mean large. It's also the only one that's Italian. Congratulations, you're stupid in three languages. Barista: A venti is a large coffee. Danny: Really? Says who? Fellini? Do you accept lira or is it all euros now?
Danny: No, I like to rock n' roll all night and *part* of every day. I usually have errands... I can only rock from like 1-3.
Danny: God dammit Ronnie! Ronnie Shields: What? Because I'm black you think I did it? Danny: No, because you did it is why I think you did it. Ronnie Shields: [Jumps on tent pole] Danny: Let me tell you something, I am not your big, but I'll hit you. I will hit a child. I've never done that before, but I will punch you in the face. Ronnie Shields: Let's dance, Ben Affleck!
Gayle Sweeny: You know what I used to have for breakfast? Cocaine. Know what I had for lunch? Cocaine. Wheeler: What did you have for dinner? Danny: Was it cocaine?
Gayle Sweeny: Watch your language, Ronnie. Ronnie Shields: My language is English and this mother f**ker tried to grab my junk.
school boy: Hey nice cow outfit. Where can I pick one of those up at, the gay zoo? Homo. Danny: No, no. It's not a cow. It's a a minotaur. It's a creature of myth. And he got this one out of your mom's closet. Wheeler: She let me keep it after I f**ked her.
Ronnie Shields: Suck it, "Reindeer Games"! Danny: I'm not Ben Affleck. Ronnie Shields: You white, then you Ben Affleck. Wheeler: You *are* white. Danny: That's true, I am white.

Add a CommentTalented actors trapped in another tastless, sexist, crude and unfunny script. Why do male filmmakers think it's funny to have five year old boys make jokes about women's breasts?
This is another movie that I went into without any expectations, and found myself falling off the edge of my seat with uncontrollable laughter.I would personally consider this a must see, but if you don't enjoy crude childish humor then this is not the movie for you.
Knee slapping funny!! If you like really sick humor, then this film is for you! The whole cast did a fantastic job! I thought it was going to be so-so funny and boy was I surprised at how funny it actually turned out to be. Just as knee slapping funny as "Burn After Reading" which was another film that turned out funnier than I thought it was going to be. Love A Good Comedy!
Paul Rudd is a really great, funny actor but this movie just isnt as good as some of the other ones more recently. A few laughs but all together, somewhat disapointing.
An original comedy that delivers. Probably the funniest movie I've seen in a very long time.
This movie suprised me, I had low expectations for it but it easily surpassed them. The humor wasn't all potty humour and it had an actual plot.
Good – Role Models (2008) 101 min. This comedy, which is actually funny, stars Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott. It’s about two guys that get themselves in trouble with the law and forced to do community work; specifically, as mentors in a camp for kids. The film also stars the under-rated and brilliant Christopher Mintz-Plasse, who starred and stole the show in “Superbad (2007)”. He plays Augie, a geek who loves participating in a weekend Medieval re-enactment society. The film is above most of these types of comedies because it takes real life situations and pokes fun at them in an honest manner. Gayle Sweeney, the camp owner is very funny. My only reservation is that the conclusion focused too much on the imaginary world that the “geeks” developed and I’m not sure if either one of the main characters would’ve gone along with the fantasy as much as they did. Then again, even that, in itself, had a message. Finally, Elizabeth Banks redeemed herself with this picture after embarrassing herself in “Zack and Miri Make a Porno (2008)”. Warning: the film does have foul language and some nudity.
