Yes it is the same old story, and yes you know what will happen, just like most of the movies out there, but it has a lot of funney spots and is just a nice film to watch. Besides, who wouldn't want to see Terry Bradshaw in the raw???

It was cute and a feel good movie. I like a happy ending and this filled the bill. The characters are cute and funny, kindof a chick flick, and it worked for me. Not necessary to see on the big screen but I would certainly make plans to see it now or renting later.

This is a chick flick, but very funny. I cannot believe Terry Bradshaw did this movie, they are going to tease him unmercifully when football starts up again. You see more of Terry Bradshaw than you ever wanted to see! Ladies, if your guys are into football, drag them to see this for a good laugh, Bradshaw is a hoot.

"Failure to Launch" is one failure of a movie. There nothing funny about a 35-year-old guy who livrs with his parents. Sarah Jessica Parker plays the woman who helps get Matthew McConaughey to move out. the film is a waste of time and talent, except Terry Bradshaw, who has no talent at all. Even the nude scene was in bad taste. It's a good that that film was released in the winter. If the film was released in late Summer, Terry will talk about his performance and how he hopes of getting an Oscar Nomination (fat chance) on "Fox's NFL Sunday." Various characters got bitten by animals. (Not funny either) The only good thing that came out of this movie was the performance of Zooey Deschanel. She's the only thing that caught my attention.
