Role Models

They're about to get more than they plea-bargained for.

Overview

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.

I once read that the Movie Wayne’s World was actually a shell of a script and that the movie was just filled in with site gags later on.  Obviously that worked, at least in the first movie.   It very much felt like the same kind of idea with this movie, except that the delivery was terrible (having Stiffler as one of the leads probably should have been a sign).  Hey look, the kid is swearing and breaking stuff for the twentieth time.  BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHA.  Ugh.  The movie was really amateurish site gag after site gag, and these were only interrupted by terrible dialog.  It really is a shame that such a talented comedic supporting cast was so wasted on this film (I actually felt bad for Jane Lynch).
