One week. No rules.

ComedyRomance

When best buds Rick and Fred begin to show signs of restlessness at home, their wives take a bold approach to revitalize their marriages, they grant the guys a 'hall pass'—one week of freedom to do whatever they want. At first, it seems like a dream come true, but they quickly discover that their expectations of the single life—and themselves—are completely and hilariously out of sync with reality.

VIBE

This film feels like a boisterous, R-rated exploration of mid-life male fantasy colliding with reality. It's a comedic journey through the awkward, often cringeworthy, attempts at recapturing youth, brimming with irreverent humor and a surprisingly relatable undercurrent of marital introspection. Expect a lighthearted, chaotic ride.
