Danny (Paul Rudd) and Wheeler (Seann Williams Scott), two guys in their 30s, work for an energy drink company. But Danny feels stuck -- as if his life is going nowhere. Desperate to do something he proposes to his girlfriend who promptly turns him down and then breaks up with him. Danny snaps and gets into a fight with a tow trucker, dragging Wheeler into the melee, and both guys end up in court. It's either jail or community service. They opt for the latter which means that they have to join a Big Brother programme. Can these two guys ever become role models?
After a slow and somewhat disjointed start, this movie actually turns out pretty good. It's not ground breaking and it follows the typical Hollywood formula but it's fun and has a damn good ending.
