You know, if someone told me Ferris Bueller grew up to have a gambling problem, I'd totally believe it. Which is probably why I watched the trailer for Finding Amanda with a little smile. It looks like the first role in a long time that lets Matthew Broderick stretch those acting muscles we know are in there, and he's paired with the lovely Brittany Snow.

The plot for this movie, which I missed when I was at Sundance, is this: "A television producer with a penchant for drinking and gambling is sent to Las Vegas to convince his troubled niece to enter rehab."
Finding Amanda is due out June 27 and you can see the trailer if you read more.

It looks like something worth seeing. It does feel like it's been a long time since Broderick's done anything interesting.
1It actually looks pretty good. I've never been too impressed by Brittany Snow but she is adorable.
2I really like the cast and it looks interesting so I'll check it out.
3I'd love to see Steve Coogan. Looks good.
4Thanks, Buzz. I haven't been impressed with Matthew Broderick for some time; his performance in Then She Found Me was flat at best, but he looks much better in this role. Definitely will check this out.
