But I have to give credit to Seann William Scott, who gave the best performance in Cop Out. As Dave the Shit Bandit, he provided lots of laughter even if he was just one of the supporting characters. There was a scene when Dave was giving out love advices to the two detectives while he was held at the back of the car.

The plot of Cop Out is interesting enough and has a steady flow that there was no boring point in the movie. There were more than enough funny moments to keep the viewers entertained. I don’t know why people call it the worst movie that Kevin Smith has ever made. It is not the best movie that the director has ever made but I don’t think that it could be the most awful one of all. Oh well, maybe they haven’t seen Red State yet.

The only eye-candy I got in Cop Out is Ana de la Reguera, who played the role of Gabriella, mistress of a Mexican drug lord. Last time I saw her was in Nacho Libre, where Jack Black was flirting with her nun character. Hopefully she gets more gigs in Hollywood.

Paul Hodges (Tracy Morgan): This is the stuff that my mom would tell friends about me, ‘My son is genius, my son is a genius’.

Cop Out is not as bad as Jersey Girl but it is not in the same level as Clerks, Chasing Amy or even Mallrats. You should take it for what it is, which is a fun movie that you’ll enjoy watching with your drunken friends. It is a movie that should not be taken seriously.

Community service means spending some time with troubled kids.  Danny is teamed up with Augie (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), someone who likes role-playing games and seems lost in Middle Earth.  Wheeler gets the foul-mouthed Ronnie (Boob’e J. Thompson).

The Role Models and the kids interacted well with each other. Scott is stereotyped as Stifler and Mintz-Plasse as McLovin’ but it worked just right for this movie.  It is important for the stars to have good chemistry and this is the case for Role Models.  The plot might not be original but a comedy is judged by the laughs it generates and Role Models delivered a lot of laughs.

Danny (Paul Rudd): No, venti is twenty. Large is large.  In fact, tall is large and grande is Spanish for large.  Venti is the only one that doesn’t mean large.  It’s also the only one that’s Italian.  Congratulations, you’re stupid in three languages.

Instead of them influencing the kids, the Role Models Danny and Wheeler ended up playing a role-playing game with Augie dressed as KISS. The movie’s message is to do what you enjoy doing, no matter what everyone else is saying.  If it means donning a cape all the time then do it.

Role Models is a good comedy.  After experiencing the devastation of Typhoon Ondoy and Pepeng, Role Models made me smile and rediscover humor again.  After the lows of the day, do yourself a favor and watch this movie.
