Description:
Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson go for the gold (and the diamonds, emeralds and rubies) as a just-divorced couple who bicker and banter their way through an adventure- and laugh-packed undersea treasure hunt. McConaughey is Finn, in love with his ex (Hudson) and in deep with gangster Bigg Bunny. After eight years of searching, Finn gets a clue to the whereabouts of the Queen’s Dowry, a fabulous fortune that mysteriously disappeared in the Caribbean in 1715. Now all he has to do is get the gold, get the girl and get going before Bigg Bunny gets him. Directed by Andy Tennant (Hitch), Fool’s Gold glitters with danger, action, romance, comedy, great one-liners – and a great time to be had by all!

The "gold" of the title refers to an elusive pirate's booty, but it just as easily could mean the sun-washed glistening shores of Florida, or the sumptuously tanned bodies of its appealing stars, Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey. The whole film is awash in golden highlights, and the scenery and cinematography make the experience akin to taking a tropical holiday. Hudson and McConaughey reprise the chemistry they first exhibited in How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, sparking and tangling and kvetching, while all the while the audience knows, of course, they adore each other and are perfect for each other. McConaughey is a dreamer, on the trail of a sunken pirate's treasure, and Hudson his now-ex-wife, a historian who prefers life to be a little more sedate. McConaughey, as Finn, delivers impassioned speeches to Hudson, as Tess, saying, "You want history? It's in the ocean, lady!" Before you can say Romancing the Stone, Tess and Finn are grudgingly reunited in search of the booty. If the plot doesn't contain many surprises, the froth of the stars' chemistry is amiable and makes for a perfect date movie. Scuba divers may find McConaughey's antics below the surface to be wildly unbelievable and usually fatal, but in the end viewers will root for him to surface, and recapture the heart of his lady love. --A.T.

This is a cute movie but has some scenes that are too explicit for me. Matt and Kate are funny and romantic at the same time.

I was very disappointed with this movie. Did not care for it at all. Tired old treasure hunt movie and the dialogue was very poor.

Fool's Gold (Widescreen Edition) This movie does what is was intended to do ENTERTAIN! Matthew McConaughey has charismatic charm that is appealing to the ladies and Kate Hudson has the seductive and witty magnetism much like her mother, although she is her own person. Brilliant pair!
Wonderfully, energetic, comical and the story line address how humans interact as the opposite sex share a battle of the wits. I so look forward to another entertaining romance comedy by Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson in the near future.

This movie was good - but nothing exceptional - disappointed with movie - the first by these stars I thought was great and this was below my expectations. Would watch once - but personally would not advise to buy it - just borrow or rent.

This a film that defies criticism. It wasn't made to win awards. If memory serves this flick was released around Valentine's Day to cash in on those taking their sweeties or intended sweeties to something lighthearted and romantic. "There Will Be Blood" just wouldn't cut it. In a nutshell, this is cinematic cotton candy. I saw this film about two days ago and it's pretty much escaped my memory banks. As was intended. This could be characterized as a screwball action-adventure comedy though it falls a little short of Grant-Dunne or Powell-Loy. That said the teaming of Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson sets off kinetic sparks. They project both intelligence and sexual heat that is palpable. The presence of Donald Sutherland as a mega-millionaire is always inviting. Sit back and enjoy the show and remain optimistic that McConaughey and Hudson will one day appear in a vehicle that has a little more meat to it.
