[edit] Plot

The story concerns a group of guys who have made a deal to each invest in a fund, which would be paid to the last remaining bachelor of the group. Michael Delaney attempts to get the other remaining bachelor, Kyle Brenner, married so he can claim the fund to pay off a gambling debt. Hilarity follows as Michael gets himself into all sorts of misadventures, from getting captured by a young woman with a bizarre BDSM fetish (who seems like a quiet librarian at first glance) to trying to retrieve a surgically-removed testicle.

[edit] Trivia

The film does a parody of Mission: Impossible II in one scene where Jerry O'Connell's character is climbing up a rock face.
The film parodies American Beauty in another scene where red roses fall onto Shannon Elizabeth. In American Beauty, roses fell onto Mena Suvari. Mena Suvari and Shannon Elizabeth starred together in the first two American Pie films.
