Role Models (2/5)
Posted on 22 Sep 2009
More adult-male-as-infants to drive a bland coming-of-age story (I thought coming-of-age was closer to thirteen). There must be an anthropological explanation as to why this subject matter puts butts in seats; one that I’m not interested in exploring right now, I have some “Grand Theft Auto 8: Sex Offender’s Delight” to play.

Hmm. Perhaps Faludi’s ‘Stiffed’ could explain some of the arrested development that is predominant to this generation. Also, Frontline did a great episode about advertising pressuring males and females into certain roles in society. For young men, the ‘mook’ ideal (‘What’s a mook’re: Mean Streets) and for young women the ‘tart.’ This is a really long comment, I’ll stop.
But I laughed at the movie. A lot.
You should prolly avoid ‘I Love You, Man’ if you didn’t care for this one.
