Movie Review: Fool's Gold

Starring: Matthew McConaughney, Kate Hudson, Donald Sutherland
Rated: PG-13

The premise is a newly divorced couple who have dedicated the last 8 years of their lives on a treasure hunt, start finding clues for their long-awaited treasure and glory.

Becky's rating: B
The movie was predictable and very formula-driven. There were good guys, bad guys and a few guys riding the fence. The main characters were entertaining enough and the story line deep enough to keep your interest in the subject. At times the theories of where the treasure might be got pretty confusing. Seems like the characters were talking too fast for the audience to understand, maybe to cover up a shallow background story. However, I do recommend this cute 'date' movie. I'm a big fan of Kate Hudson, so there's not much she could do that I wouldn't like to some degree.

Bottom line: Definitely rent this when it comes out if you miss it in the theater.
