To avoid spending a month in jail, two buddies sign up for a mentoring program: each will be the "role model" for a troubled kid. Full of foul language and adult themes, but good natured… You forgive everything because of the several hard laughs.

who was involved?
I'm not part of the sizable population of viewers who hate Ricky Gervais, so I was prepared to laugh as this movie had a good premise: in a world where everyone always tells the truth, one man discovers lying. Sadly, the execution was poor. For instance, the truth-tellers in Ricky's world feel compelled to blurt out things such as "I hate this job" or "you look awful" without prompting when they meet strangers, which borders on the pathological, and is certainly not the same as not lying. The movie would have worked better if the characters kept their mouths shut a lot more, speaking when asked, like "normal people". From that basis, there was a lot of room for comical situations. Skip unless you're a huge fan of Ricky's.

who was involved?
A rock star who speaks a language of his own is also a righter of wrongs. When he mentors America's children to stay away from tobacco and hamburgers, he gets in the cross-hairs of corporate America's big boss.
I enjoyed seeing
Wanda Sykes as well as
JB Smoove (the actor who plays Leon in
Curb Your Enthusiasm) and
Chris Rock.
Although this movie didn't really make me laugh, it entertained me as I found it thoroughly original.
I didn't know
Louis CK could direct, let alone write such a mad script. This movie establishes him among the best African American directors, alongside Spike Lee.
