Mike and Dave are young, adventurous, fun-loving brothers who tend to get out of control at family gatherings. When their sister Jeanie reveals her Hawaiian wedding plans, the rest of the Stangles insist that the brothers bring respectable dates. After placing an ad on Craigslist, the siblings decide to pick Tatiana and Alice, two charming and seemingly normal women. Once they arrive on the island, however, Mike and Dave realize that their companions are ready to get wild and party.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Mike and Dave Stangle actually did post a Craigslist ad for wedding dates in 2013, and their viral post led to a book deal before this film adaptation.
This film arrived at peak 'R-rated comedy starring hot people behaving badly' era—think Neighbors, Trainwreck, Game Night—but critics were already tiring of the formula.
