A light and watchable romantic comedy as it should be. What's new is the parents' desire for the 35-year old son to leave home and be independent. And when he does, the parents can enjoy or dread their new found freedom. What impresses me are the cameo appearances of a squirrel, a dolphin and a lizard. The fact that little sweet things can give one the shock of one's life are given such a hilarious visualization here. Zooey Deschanel as Kit is also a delightful choice as a cool, slightly eccentric. A happy ending with Tripp (Mathhew McConaughey) and Paula (Sarah Jessica Parker) sailing on a wooden boat is much to be envied.
