Failure to Launch

Matthew McConaughey plays a 35-year-old man-boy who has grown so comfortable living with his parents he decides to stay there. Sarah Jessica Parker is the professional nest-emptier hired by his long-suffering parents to help him on his way. This superior rom-com is given a leg up by a galaxy of fast-quipping supporting stars including Zooey Deschanel as Parker's sassily sarcastic flatmate.

Not exactly an all round chick flick, more of a hilariously romantic comedy. The characters are superb, my personal favourite is SJP's room-mate played by Zooey Deschanel. An excellently cast, great comedy which will have you in stitches.
