| Synopsis:
Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson go for the gold (and the diamonds, emeralds and rubies) as a just-divorced couple who bicker and banter their way through an adventure- and laugh-packed undersea treasure hunt. McConaughey is Finn, in love with his ex (Hudson) and in deep with gangster Bigg Bunny. After eight years of searching, Finn gets a clue to the whereabouts of the Queen’s Dowry, a fabulous fortune that mysteriously disappeared in the Caribbean in 1715. Now all he has to do is get the gold, get the girl and get going before Bigg Bunny gets him. Directed by Andy Tennant (Hitch), Fool’s Gold glitters with danger, action, romance, comedy, great one-liners – and a great time to be had by all! |

Not what I expected. August 9, 2008

This movie was so-so. I watched it on a plane and although it had me captured at first-Matthew and his fantastic body!- I somehow fell asleep through half of it. Now I was tired, but even so, if it was exciting enough-although the history lesson they provided was interesting-it should have kept me awake. I have to say that I'm not that upset that I missed a lot of it, because I quickly caught up in the end-with Matthew landing a plane in the water, a talent he never possessed, which it proved because it also crashed.
Kinda bland, kinda silly. Overall, hum-drum!
 Really enjoyed the show! August 7, 2008

DVD's that I order from Amazon always arrive in excellent condition. This one was no exception. We watched it right away.

Happy-Go-Lucky, Leave-Your-Brains-At-The-Door Fun!! I run decluttering and time management workshops for a living (inspiredhoney.com) and so I like to have a break once in a while and this breezy movie did it for me. Kate definitely channels her mum and actually Matthew seems to take a serious leaf from Kurt Russell's book. It's like Overboard for 2008 (Overboard is a must-see movie with Goldie Hawn & Kurt from the 1980s).

This movie was awful. The first movie in several years that has actually been painful to watch.

I had low expectations for this movie in the first place, (A friend chose it). I do like both actors, but Mathew's tan body was not enough to keep me interested for an hour and a half. boring and predictable.
