除夕夜的酒吧中，潦倒的剧作家埃里克使尽百宝挽回前女友却惨遭失败，与此同时，漂亮聪明的时髦女子艾尔莎却被条件一般的男朋友用老套的办法甩掉了。三年后埃里克凭借其创作的喜剧浪漫电影《摩登爱情》获得成功，赢得了一位美貌的年轻姑娘的青睐，某日与已婚的前女友重逢，双方都开始心猿意马。在爱情中摸爬滚打的艾尔莎终于碰到了她的梦中情人。现实中的男女主角是否能收获像电影中那样美妙的爱情呢？

　　Eric and Quentin, hosts in a children's show, are at the peak of their television careers. On a night that is a little too crazy, they drink too much and do a little rubbish. Unfortunately, someone films their "exploits" and broadcasts the video over the Internet. It's bad buzz, the dreaded phenomenon for a public figure. Their producer gives them 48 hours to restore their image, otherwise they will be fired. The more the duo tries to get by, the more they accumulate blunders, as during the funeral of Quentin's grandmother.
