John and Jeffrey challenge a pair of younger and more physically adept guys to a basketball game, during which, Jeffrey falls and injures his elbow. When Jeffrey refuses to let John operate on his elbow due to his fear of hospitals, John, inspired partly by hopes of a rematch, takes matters into his own surgical hands.
This high-energy comedy follows two New Yorkers who have finally realized that life doesn't last forever. Mismatched buddies John Mason, an impulsive, thrice-divorced surgeon who has been forced into retirement - and Jeffrey Pyne, a widower judge who agonizes over every situation - are polar opposites in every way. The one thing the duo can agree on is that they only have about 20 good years left and both men vow to live each day as if it were their last - with no regrets.
