Fool's Gold

Pros: Acting brings the characters to life

Cons: Predictable but fun story; could have been funnier

The Bottom Line: This movie is fun but is just barely above average.

Review: Okay, let's be honest right up front. Fool's Gold is mindless, empty entertainment. It is predictable. It isn't as funny as it tries to be. And yet I found it fun and endearing. Benjamin "Finn" Finnegan (Matthew McConaughey) is a beach bum ...

Pros: Fun cast and plot, good action, nice pacing.

Cons: No need for the flasher girl and brief rear end shot of McConaughey

The Bottom Line: Good fun. Enjoyable watch, nothing that blows you away, but worthwhile.

Review: Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey show good chemistry in this romantic comedy/treasure hunt excursion. Any thinness of the script is made up by Kate's Goldie-like grin and there is plenty of screen time for McConaughey to show off his sculpted ...

Pros: Humour, Ending.

Cons: Unrealistic plot, Casting.

The Bottom Line: Nothing above average. Think twice before buying the DVD.

Review: If you are expecting a good adventure film or a film which will make you laugh, then don't go and watch this film. This one does not have both. The story was supposed to be a fun filled treasure hunt, but the bad plot made it a below average flick. ...

Pros: Um...McConaughey and Hudson both have really nice bodies...

Cons: Some race-based nastiness, a silly superficial movie...

The Bottom Line: Don't give in to their glistening tanned bodies...

Review: Ah, in-flight movies. You're a captive audience, hanging out thousands of feet above the Earth's surface, and after you've run out of those books to read and small talk with your neighbors, there's little else to do than watch the stupid movie. ...

Pros: Movie Contained More Action Than What I Expected

Cons: Almost Everything Else

The Bottom Line: This should only be a last-ditch movie. If you have anything else to watch, don't bother with this one...

Review: I remember laughing at the previews for Fool’s Gold far before it came out on DVD. The entire premise for the movie, or the premise portrayed in the previews, seemed so lame. With that in mind it probably doesn’t make much since that I ...

Pros: entertaining?, good ending?...hard to say

Cons: characters, characters, characters, plot underdeveloped

The Bottom Line: I wouldnt buy it, wait until it comes out on TV

Review: This movie was strange to me in terms of characters and their roles. Specifically "BigBunny" the rapper who occasionally murders people and gets away with it. In the first few scenes he is seen stroking a cat like a stereotypical mafia type guy. Where ...
