An average movie

It was yet another movie that I had on dvd for ages so it was really time to watch the damned thing. Recently, Matthew McConaughey has made one of the most impressive come-backs ever and, somehow, he has managed to become one of the most exciting actors at work nowadays. However, it hasn't always been like that for the Texan and for almost 10 years, he had been focusing on some really underwhelming romantic-comedies. A few years before his come-back, he actually tried something else and got involved in this project. While it was indeed something new, it actually managed to be actually even worse than his usual rom-coms which at least made some money at the box-office. Indeed, this flick was obviously some kind of vanity project for the thespian as the guy is well known for doing some surfing in his free time. I mean, many have been critical because he was spending too much time without his shirt in most of his movies, well, in this flick, he is shirtless from the beginning until the very end (and also many female extras as a matter of fact). Anyway, the plot involving some evil producers in real-tv and games and months without waves was terribly weak and uneven and all the characters involved were rather obnoxious and dumb. To conclude, I think I'm being rather generous with my rating here and I don't think it is worth a look whatsoever.
