Jackie (Robert De Niro) is an aging comic icon, determined to reinvent himself after growing frustrated with audiences only wanting him to reenact jokes and scenes from a cult classic TV show he starred in decades earlier as a beloved main character.
He attends a comedy club for nostalgia night at Governor's Comedy Club in Levittown, New York (near Hicksville, New York), hosted by Jimmie Walker. After punching out an audience member trying to film his routine, Jackie is sentenced to 30 days in jail. During his 100 hours of community service he meets Harmony Schiltz (Leslie Mann), who works at a soup kitchen as part of her community service.
