Eric Keppler (Jason Sudeikis) and his friends from high school days continue to have outrageous parties at his family vacation home in the Hamptons. He is shocked when his father (Don Johnson) decides to sell the house. His slacker friend Mike (Tyler Labine) suggests getting everyone to have a Labor Day Orgy. Sue (Michelle Borth) has a secret crush on Eric. Adam (Nick Kroll) is a workaholic. Laura (Lindsay Sloane) has no confidence. Doug (Martin Starr) wishes to be a rocker instead of his regular life and has girlfriend Willow (Angela Sarafyan). Alison (Lake Bell) is a psychologist with a douchy boyfriend. Kate (Lucy Punch) and Glenn (Will Forte) are newlyweds and nobody wants them to join in the orgy. Eric falls for Kelly (Leslie Bibb), the real estate agent selling the house.
I love almost every actor in this movie. I didn't really find much of it all that funny with the exception of the Punch-Forte pairing. At first, I couldn't figure out if they're actually playing twenty somethings. They act so childishly that it does take a good while before I got comfortable with them as older slackers with jobs. It's a functional comedy and then they get to the orgy.
When the group gets into an argument, I was hoping that it gets interesting. It could have dived into their relationship dysfunctions. Instead, they dive into the orgy. It has some minor laughs at the expense of better exploration of their friendships. Overall, this is not terribly funny and despite the orgy, this is not terribly edgy either.
