Farcical drudge delivered by a man that cannot even talk properly.

Rating: 2/10 (23 June 2015)

The trend that a hero talks in a gravelly drawl reaches its climax in this film as Matthew McConaughey spends the entire film trying his best to speak without using his mouth and pretty much fails to complete a single sentence. Whereas most people are able to send words flying from their maw Matthew just lets them slither from his lips whereupon they plummet to the floor and their meaning is lost the audience. So prepare to spend your time with this film constantly twiddling the volume so you have a chance of catching the dialogue.... So the film itself? About as exciting as a brisk walk around an industrial estate. Painfully slow to start and once it does finally begin it generates pretty much a single spot of excitement before becoming desperately dull again. The science as well as most of the social interactions within this film are full of plot holes which I'll spare you due to the spoilers but if you think about the film after watching it a lot of it doesn't really make any sense. The climax of the film is somewhat boring combined with fanciful and a painfully tiring family tie in.
No idea why everyone else thought this film was any good. I thought it was drivel.
