A former world-beating boy band have grown up and moved on, until their leading member Benny (Robbins) decides to have another crack at the big time, convincing the former members and their shady producer Marty (Hulme) to try again.
When their first attempts fail, the boys realise they're singing to the wrong demographic and start targeting their former fans - now fortysomething suburban mothers - with songs about domestic bliss.
Some laughs, many predictable and plenty of scenes straight of a comedy skit show. Makes sense really, as the cast reads like a who's who of Australia skit comedy going right back to the days of The Comedy Company and The D generation.
