McConaughey should stick to action and drama

Rating: Null/10 (16 September 2003)

I like the idea of the movie. I like the female lead. I like the supporting cast. Good cinematography, music, sets. Pretty good director too. All good for few laughs. So why do I think this movie is not working? Well, I'm sorry to say it: It's Matthew McConaughey. GREAT actor. Loved him in A Time To Kill, Amistad and Reign Of Fire and some more. But he just isn't good at comedy. His moves, the faces they are so fake, like he's trying to hard. Action and drama are hard work. Comedy is a gift. Let's leave that to the comedians.
