Why !?!?!?
This was the one of the most overrated movies that I've seen in a while. The plot was a different take on 'group of guys go on last hurrah' storyline [in this case two, and instead of teenagers, they're middle-aged men].
At first, this story was believable and I was enjoying Miles' character. However, as the story went on, it became more of the two guys getting pootang [seemed a bit too extravangant - i.e. Spoiler: how does Stephanie and Maya even know each other, it was mentioned only brief, IIRC.
In the end, Jack didn't seem like he learned his lesson; and well, Miles does [I suppose] , but the backstory of his divorce came out of nowhere [a bit too much].
Maybe I'll appreciate this film when I become a middle-aged yuppie wino.....
4/10
