Role Models, a review by samuelrichardscott

Role Models (2008) United Kingdom Blu-ray (at friends house)

Overview:
Danny and Wheeler, well into their 30s, lack something: Danny feels stuck; he's sour and has driven away his terrific girlfriend. Wheeler chases any skirt he sees for empty sex. When they get in a fight with a tow-truck driver, they choose community service over jail and are assigned to be big brothers - Danny to Augie, a geek who loves participating in a weekend Medieval reenactment society, and Wheeler to Ronnie, a pint-size foul-mouthed kid. After a rocky start, things start to go well until both Danny and Wheeler make big mistakes. Can the two men figure out how to change enough to be role models to the boys?

My Thoughts:
I had seen this before so already knew I found it funny so on this viewing it was all about whether it held up or not. From the off, I loved the casting of this... Paul Rudd, Seann William Scott, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Elizabeth Banks and Jane Lynch but it wasn't until I watched it that I discovered Bobbe J. Thompson, a young actor who delivers hilarious lines one after the other. The story is a competant one with a quick start whilst still developing Rudd and Scott's characters nicely throwing you straight in and then the whole ending had me in stitches, even on this repeat viewing. One of my favourite comedies of 2008. 4/5

The Three Stooges: Movie Maniacs
Actors Moe, Larry and Curly are given the roles of a lifetime when they are mistaken for studio execs on a Hollywood lot.

My Thoughts:
This one is no more then an average short. I had my hopes up for a it a little bit since the plot was about making movies. But unfortunately it didn't impress me too much.

I really enjoyed this short series, and I also liked its finale. Even though it was cancelled and they didn't get a chance to do a proper series finale, I feel that this episode brings good closure.
