Honestly, I wasn't expecting much from this flick but since there was a pretty good cast involved, I thought I should check it out anyway. And, indeed, eventually, it was just another average and rather boring romantic comedy starring Matthew McConaughey. I don't know if you have noticed but McConaughey has made a come-back recently starring in a bunch of interesting flicks ('The Lincoln Lawyer', 'Bernie', 'Killer Joe', 'Magic Mike', 'Mud', 'The Wolf of Wall Street, 'Interstellar') but, before that, he was mostly known for his fluffy romantic comedies starting with 'The Wedding Planner' back in 2001. Personally, I think the guy always had some talent but those flicks were just so lazy, so unoriginal, so uninteresting, it is a real bore to watch them, even if I do have a weak spot for the genre. Like I said before, the supporting cast was actually nice (Jennifer Garner, Michael Douglas, Breckin Meyer, Lacey Chabert, Robert Forster, Anne Archer, Emma Stone) and I especially enjoyed Michael Douglas who is always so convincing when portraying a sleaze bag but the story was just inane and I never believed in the chemistry between McConaughey and Garner. To conclude, it was just another average and boring romantic comedy and it is not really worth a look, even if you like the genre like I do.

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past review
Posted : 14 years, 8 months ago on 16 August 2009 08:30En todella tiedä, mitä tästä elokuvasta voisi sanoa. Ajatus sinänsä ok, toteutus ei niinkään. Matthew McConaugheyn hymy ei ihan kannattele elokuvaa alusta loppuun.
Muutamia ihan viihdyttäviä hetkiä elokuvassa oli ja tämä sopii aivot-off -viihteeksi ihan hyvin. Mitäänsanomatonta taustamusiikkia, ei hyvää ei läpihuonoa.
