It is good to see those two reunite for yet another movie about them falling in love once again. But here's the thing they removed the whole romantic side of the story and replace it with an adventure filled treasure hunt. It is almost interesting to have that something like of a National Treasure feel but after all was said and done the whole thing felt short and empty. The problem is that they did not bring something new for audiences to see and the treasure hunt itself feels just dumb. Mathew as we know is only good in taking his shirt off and doing his same old character from his previous movies like Edtv and Sahara. There are just too many wrong and not too much to look forward to from Fool's Gold. Not even the entire supporting cast was helpful because they tried so hard to be funny. But there isn’t a single funny bone in their body. Even Donald Sutherland tries to be funny and that petite chick doing a dumb blonde impression, both of them should be banned from doing comedy forever. Kate Hudson did nothing whatsoever new and she kind of looks old. I missed her sexy vixen character she always portrays, like she did in Almost Famous and How to lose a Guy in 10 days. Overall to call this movie foolish is clichéd and I would recommend everyone to just stay far away as possible from this movie.
