Set in New Jersey, the story concerns a group of fiftysomething men dealing with their feelings of inadequacy.

The group prepares for a visit from their old childhood friend who is now a big-time Hollywood producer. Elliot hopes this visit will lead to bigger things in his own life. Source: RottenTomatoes.com
