The Worst Film Ever

One of the worst movies I've ever seen

Good start, but then it gets ruined

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Fool's Gold is an excellent family comedy. Matthew McConaughey is just wonderful. His positive and effulgence does not allow him to take his eyes off the whole film. Excellent director's work completely immerses you in the atmosphere of marine adventure. Expensive boat, ocean, the sun is all that is needed for a great movie. What is especially important to me is not a single second of the film there is a feeling that the actors play their roles they live with these emotions. I advise everyone to watch this film, this is one of my favorite movies.

I can not imagine anyone not liking this movie. There is a lot of funny humor and most enjoyable there is actually a serious plot to the story. What is pleasing to me, the movie actually made me laugh and not just one time. If you want to just set back and enjoy a fun time and eat your snack and watch a movie with your spouse, partner or significant other, this is a very good movie to watch. All of the actors seem to be made for their parts. The interaction between McConaughey and Hudson are great together. To me all the fun scenes, and there are more than a few, come off well within the norm for Hollywood humor. I do not like slap-stick, this movie is funny without being Jerry Lewis silly.

Yesterday i watched this movie for the seventh time and thought to myself.. hey i never watch movies more than twice and i rarely enjoy watching them over again, and here i am, having great time, watching Fool's gold for the seventh time, something must be wrong, i must like this movie more than any other. And in fact it is my favorite. I feel it, i enter the atmosphere of this naive paradise like world. I love that it is so positive, even when there is a fight and one is trying to shoot the other there isn't any hate or anger. Not to mention that almost any scene from the movie qualifies for an amazing desktop wallpaper. There are big yachts, hot chicks, clear ocean waters, paradise island, treasures, funny jokes and original action scenes. Perfect ingredients for me. I wish everyone to feel so much enjoyment from a movie like this, it is awesome!

Fool's Gold is directed by Andy Tennant who also co-writes with John Claflin and Daniel Zelman. It stars Matthew McConaughey, Kate Hudson, Alexis Dziena, Ewen Bremner, Donald Sutherland and Ray Winstone. Music is scored by George Fenton and cinematography is by Don Burgess.In 1715 a fleet of ships carrying gold from the New World to Spain sank, taking to the bottom of the ocean the wealthy haul that would become known as the Queen's Dowry.........Treasure hunters Benjamin "Finn" Finnegan ( McConaughey) and his estranged wife Tess (Hudson) are close to finding it, but naturally others are heavily involved as well.....After getting a savaging from the critics upon its release, and ranking down with the mid section non-entities on internet forums, I approached Fool's Gold with a very low expectation level. Whilst hardly being a great movie, or even a good one to justify its considerable kerching at the box office and DVD tills, it's not exactly an evil stinker either. Yes it has major problems, main one being that as an action adventure it actually lacks much adventure to call it as such, with many scenes just consisting of idle chatter, and the clichés run rife throughout. It's true enough to say as well that it's often unintentionally funny, especially as regards the number of "iffy" accents being attempted by Sutherland, Bremner and Winstone, while much of the pratfall comedy doesn't work or do the actors any favours. But the film has a quaint whiff of charm about it, always remaining good natured, even as the fists fly and the blood flows in the finale. It also looks lovely as the makers film in and around some notable Australian locations. And for those inclined towards human eye candy, McConaughey, Hudson and Dziena show the flesh.Instantly forgettable once its over, but pleasant enough as an undemanding time filler. 6/10
