Generally speaking, when I've heard nothing but bad things about a movie, I'm not inclined to watch it. However, Sunday evening I had a bad case of the Sunday night blues coupled with sheer exhaustion from trying to learn to surf. When "Failure To Launch" came on at 8:00p, I decided that - despite hearing nothing but horrible things about it - I would spend two hours of my life watching it. Matthew McConaughey is never hard to watch and SJP in Sex & the City is one of my favorites...
There is not much else to say that the title of this blog doesn't already say. Part of me kept watching it because I kept thinking, "Seriously? Can this movie get any worse?" And it does. Matthew McConaughey is attacked by no fewer than three animals during the course of the movie - a dolphin, a chipmunk and a lizard.
I'm not really sure if there is a lesson to be learned from this post. But please don't think the consensus view on "Failure to Launch" is wrong. The movie is seriously one of the worst movies ever.
