| Synopsis:
Celebrity photographer Connor Mead (MATTHEW McCONAUGHEY) loves freedom, fun and women...in that order. Connor's brother Paul is more the romantic type. In fact, he's about to be married. Unfortunately, on the eve of the big event, Connor's mockery of romance proves a real buzz-kill for Paul, the wedding party and a houseful of well wishers--including Connor's childhood friend Jenny (JENNIFER GARNER), the one woman in his life who has always seemed immune to his considerable charm. Just when it looks like Connor may single-handedly ruin the wedding, he gets a wake-up call from the ghost of his late Uncle Wayne (MICHAEL DOUGLAS), the hard-partying, legendary ladies man upon whose exploits Connor has modeled his lifestyle. Uncle Wayne has an urgent message for his protege, which he delivers through the ghosts of Connor's jilted girlfriends--past, present and future--who take him on a revealing and hilarious odyssey through a lifetime of failed relationships. |

Not bad, but Not Great November 21, 2009
JMM
Movie was alright, but was not the best of McConaughey or Garners movie career although was entertaining and enjoyable.
 beautiful script idea November 21, 2009
R. Bagula (Lakeside, Ca United States)
This approach may be a more understandable one to modern kids than Alfie (Full Screen Edition).
The screen play takes the Christmas Dickens classic with the miser Scrooge
and turns the miser into a playboy. When young people need
positive examples that are easy to understand, this movie delivers.
Casual sex is a topic here and the life of the philandering hero
starts to go really down hill when his brother throws him out of
his wedding party after he lets slip about who the brother had slept with.
And ruined the wedding cake as well...
The uncle who had raised him comes back as a ghost and
leads him through getting in contact with his better but forgooten side
using three ghosts of girlfriends.
That there is an happy ending helps. Jennifer Garner
may be more convincing as an action spy hero,
but she pulls this role off as well.
Same old, same old November 21, 2009
Cece (Atlanta, GA)
I think Matthew McConaghy (while he's one of my favorites) has outgrown these types of parts. This particular movie is a little off the wall. There wasn't much "meat" to the story at all. Just a waste of time.

This is an excellent movie that I will watch over and over again. Great cast and good story line.
 Avoid At All Costs November 12, 2009
Helen (UT USA)
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This pathetic adaptation of Dickens' A Christmas Carol should be avoided at all costs. It is unintelligent, immoral, irreverant, uninspiring (except for a couple of minutes towards the end) and altogether disappointing. Charles Dickens must have been turning over in his grave with every worthless frame of film.
