Fails to Launch
2/4 stars

Lightweight, overly-predictable, would-be romantic comedy; the script obviously thinks limitless scenes of animal attacks are hilarious, as characters get bit by a chipmunk, a dolphin, a lizard and a mockingbird. Zooey Deschanel escapes the tedium in the usually thankless role of the best friend, but the chemistry between Matthew McConaughey and Sarah Jessica Parker, well, fails to launch. Final Grade: C
