After discovering his girlfriend cheated on him, Brady's best friend Tommy convince him to go to Mexicali for this birthday. Tommy has a great birthday story in this past and wants Brady to end the trip with a story to rival it. Tommy is one of those friends who doesn't actually care what you want, but pressures you into doing what he wants you to do. In other words, Tommy is a horrible friend.
Their first night in town, Tommy insists they hire a couple of locals to show them things the tourists don't normally see. They also run into a couple of girls who want to meet up with them later, and warn them about the cartel that runs the town.
The film isn't really a comedy or a horror movie. It takes a long way to get to the payoff and then you find yourself slightly irritated that you wasted your time. I don't want to talk about what happens because that would give too much away. However Tommy is the worst friend ever and if this situation happened in real life, Brady would be traumatized, and need massive amounts of counseling. For it to end with kind of a shrug and an oh well... geez.
