Synopsis
A overgrown mama's boy who hasn't found the courage to take flight from the nest gets a little help from the girl of his dreams in the one comedy that proves it's never to late to strike out on your own. Tripp (
Matthew McConaughey
) 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 (
Kathy Bates
) and dad (Terry Bradshaw). 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 (
Sarah Jessica Parker
) in providing the romantic incentive needed to finally get their son out of the family home. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide
