Failure to Launch
Tripp’s (Matthew McConaughy) life is just too
good. He’s a handsome thirtysomething man
with great buddies who enjoy sailing, surfing,
rock climbing and mountain biking and he has a
string of gorgeous girlfriends. What’s more, he
still lives at his parents’ house, being waited on
hand and foot... who could ask for more? His
parents, however, have a very different opinion
– they can’t wait to get him out of the house. In
desperation they hire professional advisor Paula
(Sarah Jessica Parker), who guarantees she can
get Tripp out of the house in no time – sparks
are about to fly!
