Critic Reviews

The movie is one of the best American films in months and months and the best comedy since I don't know when. It even makes you sorta kinda like Matthew McConaughey.Full Review

Stephen Hunter
Washington Post

"The Family Stone" did nothing for Parker, but Failure to Launch makes a strong case for life after "Sex and the City."Full Review

Mick LaSalle
San Francisco Chronicle

The movie brings to mind the more polite parts of "Wedding Crashers." Failure to Launch, while totally exuberant and appealingly made, is not nearly as randy.Full Review

Wesley Morris
Boston Globe

An especially slight romantic comedy whose modest charms are derived largely from its supporting players.Full Review

Brian Lowry
Variety

The movie has only the most tenuous connection with reality. But the same could be said of classic 30's screwball comedies in which the treacherous feints and ploys of the mating game are transmuted into witty, romantically charged repartee.Full Review
