Hall Pass

Comedy – Rated R

Rick and Fred are best friends who have a lot in common, including the fact that each has been married for many years. But when the two men begin to show signs of restlessness at home, their wives take a bold approach to revitalizing their individual marriages: granting them a “hall pass,” one week of freedom to do whatever they want, no questions asked. At first, it sounds like a dream come true for Rick and Fred. But it isn’t long before they discover that their expectations of the single life – and themselves – are completely and hilariously out of sync with reality.
