Fool's Gold (2008)

I'm tired of reviews comparing this movie to others. This one is cute, funny, adventurous and as an avid lover of the sea and scuba diving, the ocean cinematography was awesome. This movie renewed my faith in problematic relationships. Sometimes love might be blind the first go round but ultimately, sometimes you can find your way back to the love and friendship that brought you together in the first place.

I decided to watch this after watching "how to lose a guy in 10 Days" and to be honest that movie made me laugh and that movie was much simpler than this, and no complicated plot and above all the chemistry was great. Not in this movie though! I thought this was was really really bad, it could be because of complicated plot and unnecessary characters and everything felt forced. Matthew and Kate both are great in general, but not in this movie unfortunately.A lot of over acting and blah blah.... this movie was strange, I can't call it awful because I adore these actors, but I really didn't like this movie. So much so, I wrote my first review and I have nothing good to say in it. Sorry, don't waste your time with this movie.

Fool's Gold is the second film that teams up Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson after appearing together in How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days.In this romantic comedy,the find together playing a divorced couple who rekindle their marriage while searching for a lost treasure.Donald Sutherland and Alexis Dziena co-star.Andy Tennant directs.Well,there is nothing really to say about this movie as it fails on every level.The characters are developed that we simply don't care about them particularly Benjamin and Tess.The audience probably do not care whether they get back together or not.Also,we don't care as well whether they find the treasure or not.We know what's going to happen in the end as it was predictable from beginning to end.Definitely,one may find it too long.What's worse,there isn't any funny moment in it as the gags were practically humorless.Finally,there is nothing really good going for the film except the charm and appeal of McConaughey and Hudson.If you find their first film together bad,you'll probably find this worse.

I am somebody who liked a romantic comedy from time to time. Just like any other genre it has a few great movies in it. And this one also included adventure, so I thought it will be a great movie then. Unfortunately I was wrong.The movie is incredibly bad. It is boring, predictable, with bad acting and cliché characters.We have Tess, the usual woman who has a stick up her ass and doesn't enjoy fun and wants her husband to "grow up". There is Finn, the hot immature guy. The dumb girl who likes to shop. And they are all portrayed with horrible acting that makes it even harder to like them. I keep on seeing Matthew McConaughey always play this guy and always do it horribly, I have no idea why he keeps on getting these roles.The only good thing about the movie is the scenery. Sitting in cold Canada waiting for winter to end I enjoyed watching the sunny Caribbean.
