Zack (Seth Rogen) and Miri (Elizabeth Banks) are two best friends since childhood and roommates who managed to keep their relationship totally platonic over the years that they've known each other. Cash-strapped and about to be evicted from their crappy little apartment, they find inspiration at a high school reunion from a gay couple (a hilarious Justin Long and Brandon Routh) to venture into the adult film business to make ends meet.
Zack secures finances from his coffee shop co-worker Delaney (Craig Robertson), and then begins casting, securing the likes of Lester (Jason Mewes), a stripper named Lacey (Katie Morgan), a 'specialist' named Bubbles (real life porn star Traci Lords) and an oddball named Barry (David Early). Zack also recruits his hockey team-mate Deacon (Jeff Anderson) to film.
The two vow that having sex will not ruin their friendship. But as filming begins, what started out as a business proposition between friends turns into something much more.
This is a very funny film that will offend some sensibilities while opening the world to even more one-liners and unforgettable set-pieces.
