Tripp may have hit 30, but that doesn't mean that he's ready to give up the many benefits of living at home with mom and dad. His desperate parents have had enough, though, and after years of gentle nudging they soon realize that it's going to take a concerted effort to get Tripp out and enjoy their twilight years in peace. Realizing that their only hope for ridding themselves of their reluctant-to-leave offspring rides on the off-chance of his meeting the ideal female companion, mom and dad enlist the help of a beautiful and talented woman in providing the romantic incentive needed to finally get their son out of the family home.
This was a funny movie with a clever premise. Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker had great chemistry and made this film fun to watch. The peripheral characters were a little less proficient but were quirky enough to be amusing. The plot was a little light and the ending was no surprise, but I suppose that's what you get for a romantic comedy. Overall, this is a good date movie or if you just want something fun to watch without thinking too much. Viewer beware - you'll see a side of Terry Bradshaw that should never have been revealed.
Rating: 3 of 5 stars

I typically watch movies on Monday, Wednesday and Friday while riding the ACE Train from Tracy to Santa Clara. The opinions expressed are those of me, myself and I.
