The horrible reviews made me well aware walking into this that it was going to be pretty bad. Still, I had hope. While I am not an avid fan of McConaughey or Hudson for that matter, I really enjoyed both on them in `How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days' and was excited about them reteaming for this film. When you couple that with the fact that Dennis Sutherland is a wonderful veteran actor, Ray Winstone is one of my favorite guilty pleasures and the whole premise reminded me of `Into the Blue', a film that I am not ashamed to admit totally loving (yes, I do occasionally shut my brain off and enjoy ridiculousness) you can see why I wanted to see this despite the poor reception given by critics.

I mean, this is obviously not a critic's darling.

Sadly, this movie fails on so many levels I can't even begin to understand why anyone would give this more than one solitary star (if it even deserves that, but you cannot review it without giving it a star placement). I mean, the film is ridiculously stupid (especially that whole blowhole thing) and horribly acted and there is absolutely no real chemistry between the two leads (I'm serious, everything appears forced).

I can't find a redeeming factor anywhere.

The film tells the story of recently divorced Finn and Tess. Finn is a slacker who owes a ton of money to a rapper and Tess is working for a millionaire and is easily distracted by her ex-husbands apparent charm. First of all I want to point out that neither of these two stars has ever looked WORSE on screen than they do here. McConaughey (who is rather unattractive when you take away his stomach anyway) looks like a washed up shipwreck survivor here, with some of the worst hair I've ever seen, and Hudson, who was once so stunning, is aging horribly and looks just hard, worn and overly tanned here. The acting between them, especially on the part of Matthew, is just C-Grade movie mediocre. They can't stumble through their lengthy treasure ogling speeches without sounding like they are reading off of a plaque board.

There is no naturalism here, at all.

So Finn finds remnants of this legendary treasure he and Tess have waited nearly forever to find and so he persuades her, and her boss, to embark on a treasure hunt. They have competition in Finn's former employee, Moe, as well as rapper Biggbunny (he said it was one word).

When you strip chemistry and acting from a film this preposterous you are left with absolutely nothing to warrant its existence.

Alexis Dziena is just excruciating here, Ray Winstone's accent goes in and out in every scene (I still love you, but I have to be honest), Kevin Hart is just another stereotype and WHAT WAS UP WITH MALCOLM-JAMAL WARNER?!?!?!?

I don't think I can express enough hatred for this vile cinematic offering. I wish that I had never seen it. Wait, I wish that it had never been made so that I would never have been tricked into thinking that I could possible enjoy it. It is that worthless. I hate films that are worthless. I mean, even bad films have SOMETHING to justify their existence. These people don't even look pretty here.

This should have starred the sexy beast (you know who you are).
