This is the kind of movie where you expect all the funny parts to be what you saw in the trailer spots on TV. It starts a bit slow and no doubt about it, this movie is crude, vulgar, childish, nerdy and hilarious. Directed by actor and filmmaker David Wain and written by Paul Rudd.

Role Models is a comedy about two loser-slacker- underachievers (they hawk energy drinks at public schools, we all know or knew of people like that in) Each of them has to play big brother to a kid with major adjustment problems. Wheeler (Seann William Scott) loves his work, but Danny (Paul Rudd), who suspects the drink may be poisonous, loathes it. He vents his discontent to his girlfriend, Beth (Elizabeth Banks), a successful lawyer, who becomes so fed up with his bellyaching that she dumps him. After an especially dismal presentation in which Danny veers off script and disparages Minotaur, he goes ballistic in a traffic dispute that destroys the company truck; both he and Wheeler receive 30-day jail sentences. The unlikely pairing of Seann William Scott and Paul Rudd pays off big time. They balance each other out, and both get their fair share of laughs.

Burn After Reading is the Coen brother's (Joel and Ethan Coen) first original screenplay since The Man Who Wasn't There back in 2001. As we know their urge for comic taste, creative violence and a slightly mocking eye for detail are very much visible in this movie. The main star casts of the movie are George Clooney, John Malkovich, Frances McDormand and none other than Brad Pitt. What a line up!

It is a great spy film, and it's hard to think of anyone less suited to a life of crime than Pitt's character Chad. Chad is a bouncing puppy of a man; a fitness trainer at Hard Bodies gym and the best buddy of fellow Hard Bodies employee Linda (McDormand). Linda has an aching loneliness inside which she attempts to fill with unrewarding hook ups on Internet dating sites and the dream of a new life bought through extensive cosmetic surgery. But all the butt-sculpting and face-stretching that she requires comes at a price, so when the gym cleaner finds a disk that appears to contain what Chad describes as "top secret sensitive shit" Linda scents the chance of a windfall and Chad skips happily along beside her.
