I watched this movie online, so the quality wasn't great, and I'm sure that watching it on the big screen with the better quality would make it better. but i still liked it.
it had adventure, funny moments, sub-history plot, buried treasure, and sorta a love story.
i still enjoy matthew mcconaughey and kate hudson's chemistry and that they are opposites and hate each other in this movie. the whole "bad-boy" rapper bad guy was a little over-done and unoriginal. so was the preppy rich daughter that hates her distant father and then learns to love him
though, i am a sucker for the treasure hunter, buried ancient treasure plots and this counteracted these ideas. that was complimented by the wit of the characters and great scenery.
another flaw i saw with it was its release date. it got released around valentine's day, i'm thinking as a valentine's movie. though, i would think that it would be much better as a summer movie. the setting was definitely during the summer and the love story was kinda typical. making it a summer fling type date movie.
even though most of the reviews i read didn't like, i personally enjoyed it.
recommended for: date night, girls night
