10 Awful Movie Couples Who Have No Chemistry

4. Matthew McConaughey & Kate Hudson - Fool's Gold

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2IInvMZcE-Y I have to admit, I was really surprised that this pairing didn't work; Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson seem like a great personality match - they both seem chilled out and down-to-Earth - and, of course, are both extremely good-looking. Somehow, it doesn't translate into romantic chemistry on screen, however; though the script is anything but good, it at least puts the pair in enough argumentative situations and tight spots that their innate chemistry should shine through. Alas, despite making for a great movie poster, the two being paired together results in an oddly sexless film. Furthermore, given that the majority of the film's production saw the pair frolicking in the sun and being paid for it, you'd think their sheer joy at that predicament would translate to something that feels real. Instead, they both seem like they have other people on their minds.
