Ghosts of Girlfriends Past – Movie Review

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past

2009 – Comedy – PG 13

The Plot:

Ghosts of Girlfriends Past — the Mark S. Waters directed fusion of A Christmas Carol with a traditional romantic comedy — stars Matthew McConaughey as Connor Mead, a famous photographer and confirmed womanizer. He takes a break from his playboy lifestyle to attend his brother’s wedding, where he becomes reacquainted with Jenny Perotti (Jennifer Garner), the only girl who ever captured his heart. After Connor delivers a drunken speech at the rehearsal dinner where he says that love isn’t real, he’s met in the bathroom by the ghost of his Uncle Wayne (Michael Dogulas), a Hefner-esque horndog who taught Conner everything he knows about picking up chicks. Uncle Wayne informs Connor that, over the course of the evening, he’ll be visited by three ghosts who will lead him through his romantic past, present, and future. Will Connor learn to get over himself and love the right woman, or will he remain an emotional Scrooge? ~ Perry Seibert, All Movie Guide

The Good:

Matt McConaghy, Lacy Chabert. This movie was hilarious! Especially the flash backs from his past where his uncle is teaching him everything he knows.

The Bad:

Jennifer Garner, they could have cast that part better.

The Recommendation:

Definitely a must see for romantic comedy lovers!
