a5c7b9f00b A new clue to the whereabouts of a lost treasure rekindles a married couple's sense of adventure – and their estranged romance.
Benjamin Finnegan is a deep-sea treasure hunter certain he's onto the find of the century in waters near an island close to Key West owned by a murderous rap star to whom Ben is in debt. Ben's flat broke and recently divorced from Tess, his long-time research and diving partner whom he still loves. She's nearby, workinga steward aboard the yacht of Nigel Honeycutt, a multimillionaire. The rapper has hired a rival treasurer hunter. Can Ben convince Nigel to bankroll his search, convince Tess to work with him, keep the rapper and his thugs at bay, and find a Spanish treasure hidden for centuries and rich beyond imagination?
I was expecting this to be a bad movie, based on its IMDb rating, but it is not bad at all, and mostly entertaining. It helps that I like all the actors.<br/><br/>Matthew McConaughey mostly seemed like he was acting like himselfBenjamin Finnegan, hunter of lost ships at sea. Well, really only one ship, a Spanish ship that supposedly disappeared in a hurricane in 1715, loaded with treasure for the new queen. As the movie opens we see him and his partner in SCUBA gear, combing the sea floor, while a series of mishaps above the water line end up sinking their crusty boat.<br/><br/>Kate Hudson is Tess Finnegan, she and Ben were married after a torrid and quick relationship, and even spending much of their honeymoon studying lost Spanish ships in a library. But since then Tess has become very disillusioned with Ben, and they are to be divorced the next day.<br/><br/>But Ben knows he is getting closer, but with no boat and owing $62,000 and change to a rap artist, the divorce is not the biggest of his worries. He needs help, fast.<br/><br/>Enter multi-millionaire Donald SutherlandNigel Honeycutt, who just happens to be at the beginning of a week-long visit aboard his large yacht by his ditsy daughter, cute and tiny Alexis DzienaGemma Honeycutt. Even in her ditziness she eventually makes an observation that will lead them in the right direction.<br/><br/>A couple of Brits have good roles. Ewen Bremner (of 'Trainspotting' fame) is Ben's diving partner Alfonz. But when it is all said and done, his role appears to be mostly so that Gemma can have a boyfriend at the end of the movie. Ray Winstone is the crusty boatman Moe Fitch with a very thick souther accent.<br/><br/>SPOILERS: Tess really does love Ben but she is getting the divorce simply to save herself from him, his lies, and his schemes. But just when she had given up, they find some new clues, and they trace it to a book long buried in a cemetery near the church, the oldest building on the island. The book reveals that the treasure was placed at the bottom of a sea-side natural blow hole which reveals the treasure only during a December low tide. It was put there to protect it. After an epic battle against the crooks, Ben and Tess finally prevail.
Fool's Gold is a live-action cartoon for adults. It is escapism in it's purest form. With strictly low-brow humor, plot and characterization, the film is certainly no Oscar contender. However, it doesn't need to be anything other than what it is to be entertaining. The beautiful scenery, and the beautiful cast are easy to watch. *spoilers* The guy gets the girl and they get the treasure. Along the way, they pick up new friends to join in on their adventure, the hero makes up with his mentor, and the bad guys are given what they deserve. There is no new ground broken in this plot; just a silly tale, but one told very well. Comedy, adventure and a little romance are all spun together to create a sunlit tropical fantasy.
Any more than two writers on a movie usually spells trouble. On the other hand, that two of the three scribes responsible for Fool's Gold have previously specialized in horror makes perfect sense.
Fool's Gold is based on a screenplay written by American screenwriters John Claflin, Daniel Zelman, and Andy Tennant.
