A pair of irresponsible energy drink salesmen realize that serving a month of hard time is nothing compared to spending 150 hours in a community mentorship program after they trash the company truck and find themselves at the mercy of the court in this
comedy starring
Seann William Scott and
Paul Rudd.
Wheeler (
Scott) and
Danny (
Rudd) wouldn't necessarily be the first people a parent would turn to when seeking out a babysitter, in fact, they probably wouldn't even make the list in the first place. After slamming a few too many Minotaur energy drinks and crashing the company truck, however, the two loose-living pals narrowly avert jail when the court decides to let them become mentors to a group of young misfits. But how is the recently dumped
Danny supposed to help bashful, role-playing geek
Augie (
Christopher Mintz-Plasse) become a man when all he can offer the boy is bitter sarcasm, and is beer-chugging man-child
Wheeler really the best choice to help foul-mouthed fifth-grader
Ronnie (
Bobb'e J. Thompson) develop more respect for his elders? Probably not, but they'll have to do their best anyway when the center's ex-con director (
Jane Lynch) confronts them with a harsh ultimatum. Now, if
Wheeler and
Danny can just make it through the rest of their probation without getting tossed in jail, maybe there's hope for the boys -- and
Danny's relationship with his fed-up girlfriend (
Elizabeth Banks) -- after all.
