5 Performances That Sucked
5. Connor Mead - Ghosts of Girlfriends Past
Ive always liked Jennifer Garner and Michael Douglas, and Ive really grown to like McConaughey a lot. But I hate this. This is the laziest, stupidest alternative adaptation of Charles Dickens
A Christmas Carol that Ive ever seen. And McConaughey, playing photographer Connor Mead who, you guessed it, has a knack with the ladies, brings nothing special to this steaming pile of predictable clichés and forced humour: the very definition of "phoning it in". I hope that this is the last rom-com McConaughey will appear in, I really do. There is no distinct chemistry between McConaughey and Garner, although theyre Taylor & Burton in comparison to some of Matts pairings youll meet later, and youre not sure whose fault it is. And theres no spark between Matt and Michael Douglas either. If nobody can muster up something interesting, than what the hell was the point? God knows how this grossed over $100 million at the box office. You dont care about what he is going through, or the inevitable lessons he learns by the end of it all. Rather, youre glad hes changed his ways because the credits will roll and you can stop watching. There simply aint nothing to recommend here.
