Role Models

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Funny movie. Really funny movie. One of the funnier movies I've seen in a while. On par with Superbad, Knocked up, 40 Year Old Virgin, etc. If you didn't think those movies were funny then fuck you and go to hell. But if you did, you'll probably think this one is funny too. Even if you didn't, you should this one. Cause it is. So suck it.

Fuck you, too.

Superbad wasn't that funny. It was like, if I had been 15, it would have been funny.

I agree with that. I think it was overrated. Funny, but overrated.

As for Role Models, I liked it. It has a good mix of both adult and juvenile humor. It's kind of like they mixed Superbad and The 40 Year Old Virgin.

Both Paul Rudd and Sean William Scott put in exactly the performance they need to make this movie work and they have a pretty good chemistry.

Any movie that can make LARPs entertaining has to be decent, right?

7 out of 10.

Watching LARP's is extremely entertaining, but not in the way the participants would want.

I'd always thought that about 40 Year Old Virgin.

I liked it. I loved the deconstruction of the KISS song. I figured it would be good for one huge laugh and then exactly 2 small laughs... but instead I got 8 medium sized laughs. Good stuff.
