Trailer Bulletin: Failure to Launch
Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker team up for Paramount's romantic comedy "Failure to Launch," which focuses on a 35-year-old man who refuses to move out of his parents' house and the professional "motivator" who uses her feminine wiles to inspire him out the door. Check out the trailer right here at RT.
Here's where I'd offer a more complete or "official" plot synopsis, but that seems to be all there is: a man won't leave his mom & dad's home until a hottie is hired to motivate him to do so. Period.
Co-starring Zooey Deschanel, Justin Bartha, Kathy Bates, and ... Terry Bradshaw (?), "Failure to Launch" comes from director Tom Dey, the guy who brought you "Shanghai Noon" and "Showtime."
"Failure to Launch" opens on February 10th.

on Jan 18 2006 09:14 PM [b]Will probably not launch[/b] As with most Matthew McConaughey films, they usually fail to launch. 2 For The Money (which wasn't half bad) and the horrible 'Sahara'. I think He's a good actor but he really needs to read better scripts. His performance in the Grisham adaptation 'A Time To Kill' w/ Samuel Jackson was great. Cheers, Kevin (Reply to this) |
on Jan 19 2006 01:44 PM [b]That's a bit too kind[/b] I wouldn't call MM a good actor -- an entertaining one, but not a good one... I can't think of a role where he's actually played something off the norm. (Reply to this) |
