This is an antithesis to the chick flick. Two guys ditch the Real World and go on an international adventure in the Phillipines. The two main characters are lifelong best friends who leave their wives and kids for paradise in the tropics. We've all felt that desire to be free from our chains. However, each new attempt at paradise has its problems, women, natural disasters, longing for their families back home. No matter how close paradise looks on the horizon, you can't ever get to it.

This is definitely a "thinker" movie and discusses the search for heaven on earth, or if there is ever such thing as complete contentment. We as humans, by nature, are always looking for the next best thing. As men, we want the perfect woman who understands and adores us, but even if we find her, we are always going to lose that luster and start wanting something else. Just when we think we know what we want, we find that we don't...

Great film
