2013114 min5.1 / 10

A buddy comedy about two mismatched friends navigating inheritance, family conflict, and romantic entanglement after a death, balancing irreverent humor with underlying emotional stakes.

When Steve Dallas, a womanizing local weatherman, hears that his off-the-grid best friend Ben Baker has lost his estranged father, the two return to Ben's childhood home. Once there, they discover Ben has inherited the family fortune, and the ill-equipped duo must battle Ben's formidable sister and deal with his father's gorgeous 25-year old widow.
