Well...let's put it this way...I'm quite a fan of these run-of-the-mill romcoms with really snazzy topics...this is definitely one of them...starring the very strange couple of McConaughey & S.

J.Parker...with Bradley Cooper & Zooey Deschanel...Failure to Launch..is a totally sunday chill-time type movie...cuddling up with your special one is totally recommended...Trip (McC) is a 35- year old bachelor still living with his parents.

..while Paula (Parker) is an inventiorist, who basically makes a living by bursting the dreamy bubble type life of such guys...but this one client proves fatal, as Paula falls in love with Trip...and thus all hell breaks loose.

..sturdy performances by McC & Parker...Deschanel's plays this very tom boyish, carefree room partner of Parker with great conviction...Bradley Cooper fares well too...all in all...perfectly watch-able fare for all age groups.

..clean, plain romcom, just like the 'ol days...!!!..................(*Tring Tring...rumors have it that it's being remade in Bollywood starring Ranbir Kapoor & Konkona Sen Sharma...strange jodi, plus sexed up storyline.

..umm...this is gotta watch...cheers...tc...ciao...!!!).
