John (John C. Reilly) is a divorcee, who lives his life as a single man, without any romance or relationships. Urged by his former wife and his close friend Jamie, he reluctantly agrees to have some fun at a party, where she and her boyfriend invite him one day. And this party becomes a starting point to John’s new relationship.

Surprisingly for everybody and mostly for himself, John meets a charming woman there, called Molly (Marisa Tomei). They fall in love with each other and start dating. But the fact, that Molly is eager to have relations only at John’s house, puzzles the man a lot. John begins to suspect, that the woman he loves has somebody else, whom she doesn’t want him to know about. Troubled a lot by these controversial feelings, the man decides to follow Molly home. To his surprise John finds there no one but her son Cyrus (Jonah Hill). The 21 years old guy is a keen new age musician, but his hobby is not the reason of Molly’s strange behavior, of course. The thing is that Cyrus doesn’t want to share his mother with anyone else…

The comedy directed by Jay and Mark Duplass is a great blend of humor and dramatic events, capturing and providing a deep look at the social and private life of its heroes, their psychological problems and the way how they can be solved.
