Matthew McConaughey couldn't even save this...

Originally seeing the trailer for this i knew it was about the male stripper trade however despite the content of the film i usually make a point of seeing anything that Matthew McConaughey stars in as he is cooler than the other side of my pillow. Still waiting for a film to be made starring all my faves Daniel Day Lewis, Sean Penn, Mark Wahlberg, Leonardo Dicaprio, Jack Nicholson etc... Anyhow to get rapidly back on track here...the film was another dissapointment of 2012 I can usually ignore not so great storylines however " Magic Mike" made the cardinal boo-boo...pointless storyline! Ok i get that this was about the bromance between the chief antagonists in the film played by both Channing Tatum and Alex Pettyfer, however it still ended with no vaild point being made about the film. Good performances from Matthew McConaughey however (My main reason for viewing this dud in the first place) that's why it got at least 1/2 star more than persay what it would've achieved without Matthew.
Unfortunatly McConnaughey's performance alone wasn't enough from saving this film from crashing and burning....Sadly the male eye candy will help this film do well thanks to the ladies who rent it....
