Sound familiar?Īll relevancy’s to other stories and cliched plot devices aside, I stand firm in my opinion that this is one of few modern romantic comedies to emerge from Hollywood that I gladly stand behind. This will be Connor’s wake up call and one last chance to change his life for the better. As it turns out, Uncle Wayne (Michael Douglas) has returned to set right the mistakes he made in turning the once kind-hearted Connor into the train wreck of a ladies’ man his is today, warning him that three ghosts will visit him the night before his brother’s wedding to reveal to him feelings and memories he has long since forgotten. Connor is living the good life, partying hard and experiencing the pleasures of the opposite sex, but when he attends his kid brother’s wedding he soon discovers that the life he’s leading is not destined to remain a paradise on Earth forever.Īs he proceeds to ruin his brother’s wedding with his predictably arogant behavior, Connor is suddenly visited by the ghost of his dead Uncle Wayne, who lived as a playboy and taught Connor everything he knows about being a player. Connor Mead (McConaughey) is an insanely successful, high-profile photographer that snaps vogue shots of any and every hot celebrity and model there is and coincidentally receives a certain bonus with each of his clients as well… if you know what I mean. Let me first run through the general premise for you, despite the fact that the trailer will give you just about everything you need to know about the story, well… that and having ever seen any one of the many incarnations of ‘A Christmas Carol’. Oh, wait a second… ‘Ghosts of Girlfriends Past’ is actually a good movie? Hold up! Yeah, just checked and I am still of the male gender of the species, and I really liked this movie. This time around, Matty-boy will have his go with Jennifer Garner as female audiences across the country swoon and daydream that it is they who are being held in the modern-day dream guy’s arms. Ladies… are you ready? Matthew McConaughey is back again for another romantic comedy with another very attractive actress with whom his character will experience the ups and downs of a Hollywood relationship.
