Rick and Fred are best friends who have become sexually frustrated in their married lives. Their wives allow them to take a week off marriage and behave like single men. This conservative gross-out comedy from the Farrelly brothers is astoundingly formulaic. It's yet another story about grown men who think they want to act like adolescents, only to find out that what they really want is what they already have. I could momentarily close my eyes to the lack of fresh ideas, if the movie was funny at all.
