![]() ![]() You know, being aware without drawing attention. Wheeler: Never stare at the boobies, kid. Wheeler is an amiable goof who probably will not get far in life but who deserves every friend he has. While there are some drug references, this is not a stoner film like the Seth Rogan comedies of the past ten years. As Wheeler, the less ambitious and more socially satisfied of the two, he espouses wisdom like a college student, after midnight on a three hour buzz from the hot box he got out of on his way to the frat party. He has made a bunch of films that are entertaining and while he is not really a thespian per se, he is usually cast very well and “Role Models” may very well be his perfect role. I’m not sure why Sean William Scott gets the crap I hear flung at him. Here they are matched with a couple of youngsters and the bonding and hilarity ensue. They get sent over to “Sturdy Wings” a mentoring organization along the lines of Big Brothers. Two guys who work together get into a legal tangle and have to do some community service as a way of avoiding jail time. This is dumb comedy done in a smart way and it has so many quotable lines that it could easily displace Caddyshack on the list of guy movies that guys will quote incessantly. If you are a fan of films like “I Love Man” or “Forgetting Sarah Marshall” then you don’t want to miss this treat starring the slacker gods Sean William Scott and Paul Rudd. It is just funny as all get out with wiseacre talk, inappropriate life lessons and a cast of funny people who are just trying to entertain you for a couple of hours. There is no historical value, cinema language, or back story intrigue to make this a movie you should see.
