This movie is dull all around. The plot is weak. It is a romantic comedy that is neither romantic or funny. I kept waiting for it to get better, it just never did. This movie is a total waste of time. Hollywood fluff. Perhaps McConaughey and Hudson were just fulfilling a contract because this movie is an awful waste of time.

I watched this movie hoping for one as great as How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days...it didn't even come close. There were some funny parts, but it was slow-moving though most of it. Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson are very talented and work great together, but this movie didn't really show it.

This was not a good project for them, but they made it work. They are a good comedic couple.

this is a really bad movie. This movie suffers from misidentity. Is it a romantic comedy? Is it an adventure flick? Or is it just a fun date movie? Sadly, it misses on all accounts. As a comedy, it's not funny and the gags are redundant and boring. As an adventure, it just isn't exciting or fun. And a date movie, not unless you don't want to want to date anymore. Waste of time in my book.

The story moves quickly as an adventure but also as a silly comedy considering how silly the two interpreters are. Donald Sutherland is really wasted in the part of the rich yacht owner and his daughter is throughly mentally deficient. Yet I continued to watch because the scenery and the shots on the sea are really outstanding. The location is supposed to be the Florida Keys yet there are hills in the scenes that just don't exist in the Key West area; therefore the movie is not realistically correct. It is fun to watch, though, so I recommend it as a very light headed amusement.

I really like Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey, but this movie was soooooo dumb I couldn't even watch the entire thing. And that's not to say I didn't try, I watched most of it hoping it would get better, but unfortunately it never did. Just seemed like typical Hollywood mass-produced crap.
