Of course, they encounter some tribulations on the way and the film highlights the reality of growing up and no longer being able to act without consequences. The film follows a group of thirty-something year old men who decide to relive their college days and set up their own exclusive fraternity. Released back in 2003, Old School has a star-studded cast featuring Will Ferrell, Luke Wilson, and Vince Vaughn. We see a more personal side to the story as Gamble faces marital troubles associated with his new attitude towards his job, and as with Step Brothers, the comedy shows its strengths as a poignant picture.įrequent Ferrell collaborator, Adam McKay is at the helm as the director, and minor roles for stars such as Eva Mendes and Steve Coogan helped to push this feature to a huge box office success, raking in over $170 million. The film explores their escapades, and they become embroiled in a huge case which nobody else will follow, leaving them to go rogue. A space opens up for a new duo to take the limelight, so Holtz and Gamble attempt to step up and be them guys. Jackson set the film up as they portray the two hottest detectives in the NYPD, renowned for their fearless attitudes, which ends up being their downfall. This might be another film on this list featuring Will Ferrell, but this one features a lot more action! There's still the hilarious gags you'd expect but with the added bonus of wannabe action heroes Detective Gamble (Ferrell) and Detective Holtz ( Mark Wahlberg).
