Strapped for cash, the duo set up possibly the first porn website in existence, but can't figure out how use it to generate profits. He then moves on to dispensing financial advice to a pair of out of control computer geeks, Wayne (Giovanni Ribisi), a barbiturate freak failed veterinarian, and brainy NASA outcast, Buck (Gabriel Macht). Venturing into increasingly unconventional waters, Jack gets a gig advising a gangster (Robert Forster) in kinder and gentler methods of operation prior to considering breaking kneecaps. Luke Wilson is Jack Harris in Middle Men, a Texas suburban family man and business consultant, with some awfully strange clients. Likely to protect the guilty, who can say.
