In this comedy, a millionaire randomly picks six teams and asks them to meet him in a Vegas hotel room. He gives each team a key that opens a locker hundreds of miles away. This locker contains two million dollars. The teams set off on a road trip to get the money first.

John Cleese plays the owner of a Las Vegas casino and invovles many people in a kind of chase for money. He tells them the location of the money and they all have to try to get it causing a kind of Road Trip movie. Very funny movie with lots of familiar faces.
