I felt degraded and abused enough–and perhaps unable to ever eat chicken again–after this movie that I just cannot recommend it.

Sure, Matthew McConaughey does his role very well. So what? Sometimes that’s not enough to make a movie worth sitting through. (See “There Will Be Blood.” Career performance from DDL does not make that a movie I ever, ever, ever want to see again.)

Also: Every Single Person in this movie is a shallow jerk. You have no one to root for! NO ONE! Even the presumed naive victim just seems dumb, not wounded or someone you should care about.

Icky.
