Fool's Gold

Fool's Gold

with Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson

Rated PG-13

(Personal Rating: R)

Tess and Finnigan are a young married couple who are in the process of getting divorced. Finn is a treasure hunter who is looking for a lost Spanish treasure and Tess has gotten involved as well. After their divorce if final, they are able to get connected with a wealthy older man who is also interested in finding this treasure...but they must do it before the competition, who is only interested in the monetary value of the treasure, not the history. Of course they fall back in love in the process! Chick-flick!

We watched this movie last night and were totally flabbergasted by the language that was involved! (Hence my "personal rating" of R!) This movie should have been rated R due to the language alone. The violence and the nature of the movie (treasure hunting) was nothing to steer kids away from. But the language was. We were truly bothered by it. McConaughey and Hudson, however, were wonderful in this movie. They make a great pair! My kids didn't particularly like the part at the end with the 'kissing' LOL but I've determined that ALL movies are chick-flicks, regardless of how much bang-em-up is in it. (And no, the boys weren't in the room for all of the movie...they didn't pick up on the foul language, they just knew there were some bad words in it.)
