(2014) (Kevin Hart, Regina Hall) (PG-13)
- QUICK TAKE:
- Comedy: A large group of male and female friends assemble in Vegas for a wedding and get into all sorts of misadventures the night before the nuptials.
- PLOT:
- Six male friends and six female friends -- some of whom are married, others who are involved in relationships -- assemble in Las Vegas to attend the wedding of Michael (TERRENCE JENKINS) and Candace (REGINA HALL). Michael, though, has accidentally named the motor-mouthed, hyper-intense Cedric (KEVIN HART) as his best man, and Cedric goes overboard in trying to plan the greatest bachelor party ever. He even books a $40,000-a-night hotel suite, thinking it's $4,000 a night, that comes with a butler named Declan (JIM PIDDOCK). Meanwhile, Michael's overbearing mother, Loretta (JENIFER LEWIS) causes friction by trying to control everything from the female side, and she still doesn't approve of single-mother Candace as a worthy daughter-in-law.
Throughout the night, the various couples work through long-simmering issues. Blue-collar cook Dominic (MICHAEL EALY) is offered a chef position in Vegas that could launch his culinary career. But he considers turning it down because his lover, business executive Lauren (TARAJI P. HENSON), would never want to leave her company in Los Angeles ... until he learns she has secretly accepted a new executive position in New York City. Zeke (ROMANY MALCO), meanwhile, can't seem to live down his long-standing reputation as ladies man "Zeke the Freak," as he tries to convince Mya (MEAGAN GOOD) that he is ready for a committed relationship.
Jeremy (JERRY FERRARA) is sufficiently freaked out that his wife, Kristen (GABRIELLE UNION), has him on a "sex schedule" in an effort to become pregnant. Jeremy isn't even sure he is ready to be a father. For their part, Bennett (GARY OWEN) and Tish (WENDI McLENDON-COVEY) have been married 15 years and have kids. Their idea of fun in Vegas -- playing slot machines, going to see the "Jersey Boys" stage musical, etc. -- clashes with the more wild ideas of the group. Matters become even more complicated when Michael's two fraternity brothers, Isaac (ADAM BRODY) and Terrell (DAVID WALTON), show up to party and when Candace's smooth Uncle Eddie (DENNIS HAYSBERT) arrives to distract Loretta.
