Actors: Michael Cera, Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse
PlotIn the twilight of their high school years, two inseparable friends face the inevitable fork in their paths: college is looming, promising to send them in different directions. In a bid to make their remaining time memorable, they hatch a plan to attend a massive party, seeing it as the ultimate opportunity to change their social standing. The duo, known for their awkwardness rather than their coolness, set their sights on procuring alcohol for the party, believing it will make them heroes among their peers and finally win them the attention they crave from their classmates, specifically from their respective crushes.
The quest for alcohol, however, quickly spirals into a series of misadventures. As they navigate the unexpected complexities and hilarities of the adult world, their friendship is put to the test. From dealing with a pair of unpredictable cops to the eccentricities of a new acquaintance who becomes an integral part of their night, their attempt to fulfill a seemingly simple goal becomes an odyssey through the unpredictable night. Each misstep and victory brings them closer to understanding the true meaning of friendship and the bittersweet nature of growing up, all the while racing against time to make it to the party before their golden opportunity slips through their fingers.
