Sol (Balthazar Getty) is a loser, heading towards his 20s, and he hasn't had a romantic relationship with a woman in his entire life. Sure, he's slept with lots of them, including the excruciatingly obnoxious Tammie (Tori Spelling). But never anything more than a night. Sol's roommate Justin (Jamie Kennedy) is about to get married. He thinks he's happy, after being promoted from mailroom worker to the assistant of a snotty agent (Cheri Oteri). The truth is, his wife (Natasha Gregson Wagner) is a real bitch.
But Sol hasn't given up, despite his parents' (Robert Wagner and Christina Pickles) insistence that he's next to nothing in the real world. These days he's hunting for a job as an actor, even though his visiting friend Happy (Johnathon Schaech), a well-endowed cowboy who gets all the ladies, is finding more acting jobs than Sol while standing around. Sol seems destined to fail, until his best female friend Chloe (Katharine Towne) decides to cheer him up. Sol could find love if he was really looking for it. But if his relationships are as successful as his job hunting, there probably isn't any hope at all.
The film features cameo appearances including Jared Leto, Carmen Electra, Jason Bateman, and Shannon Leto.
