Frank leads the quiet life of a business lawyer with a wife and a mortgage. The day before a decisive meeting, he eventually joins his colleague for a night out. From one thing to another, Frank absorbs a hallucinogenic drug that will ruin his life. Or improve it, depending on the perspective.

Ever since the first part of the Jeepers Creepers trilogy (2001), we know that Justin Long is at his best when he plays the sacrificed victim of a crazy fantastic movie. Here he is in a mutant and unpredictable romantic comedy, with the little touch of sadism that suits him so well. The nostalgic Scrubs series fans will particularly appreciate the duo formed by Justin and the rare Donald Faison, the aficionados of high concept bis will get their money’s worth, everyone will grow from the experience, perhaps with a sneaky smile.
