Rudd and Scott aren't stretching any new muscles, but Rudd's glum disaffection and Scott's bozo bonhomie do gel with a satisfying stickiness. They handle the gaping innuendo with such delicacy we know that they know they're better than this.

Role Models could have been another formulaic comedy, fresh off the assembly line. Instead, the work of Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott here is worthy of praise and one of the funnier films this year.

Role Models is a film for the nerds, by the nerds. Lucky for Role Models, the rest of our culture is catching up and are invited along as well.

No one is going to marvel at the actors' Stanislavsky-like artistry, but Scott and Rudd are fun to watch and their bickering is hilarious...

Audience Reviews for Role Models

May 24, 2015Too much fun! Two men-children become big brothers to a fantasy geek and a foul-mouthed delinquent, and heartwarming hilarity ensues. The inside look at the LARP community and the integration of the KISS motif culminates in some great deadpan humor, victorious redemption, and of course, ye olde goofy Englishisms.Alice S Super Reviewer

Jan 03, 2013"Role Models" is funnier than a lot of the self-proclaimed 'raunchy' comedies of late because it's not as mean as them. On the outside, it seems like another simplistic, foul-mouthed flick about two deadbeats corrupting the youth, and while, in a way, it is, it's also a lot nicer, more sustained and has a sweeter message. It's quotable and likable, and Paul Rudd and Seann William Scott have some great comedic chemistry with one another. The main reason that it works is because it doesn't try to be anything more than a pleasant outing and that's precisely what it is. (A.D. Miles has the best character of the bunch. His "Love Me Take Down (To the Streets)" quotes are priceless.)Stephen E Super Reviewer

Nov 30, 2012Wain should be directing more films like Role Models. It is full of pop culture and a cast full of Wain characters from over the years. A good cast adds weight to a storyline that is designed for quick jokes, but you don't get so many of these. Role Models is funny and one of the better modern comedies that deserves a bigger core audience. 08/05/2019Brendan N Super Reviewer
