Fool's Gold
This is garbage. It’s pretty garbage inhabited by pretty people in pretty surroundings, but it’s still garbage. The box-office juggernaut pairing of Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey gets a second go-around after the lousy How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, and their latest effort isn’t much of an improvement. McConaughey plays Benjamin, a crazy treasure hunter reluctantly getting a divorce from Tess (Hudson). He finds a plate shard he believes to be part of a tremendous long-lost treasure, but he sinks his boat. Can he find the treasure and keep his wife? Do you care? Part treasure-hunt adventure and part romantic comedy, the film has an uncomfortable feel, as if everybody involved didn’t really know what kind of film they were making. Donald Sutherland is awful in this movie, employing a terrible accent and looking embarrassed.
