Ghosts Of Girlfriends Past

PG-13
Starring: Matthew McConaughey & Jennifer Garner
1 hour & 40 minutes

This movie was a major disappointment. It was completely different from what I had anticipated.
Matthew McConaughey's character Conner is an avowed bachelor. He reluctantly shows up for his younger brothers wedding and practically destroys the whole thing. His childhood girlfriend played by Jennifer Garner is also a bridesmaid. The two of them clash as the wedding countdown begins. Conner encounters the "ghosts" of his past girlfriends and it gets really rank, almost to the point of being sleazy.
Michael Douglas plays Conner's very wealthy Uncle Wayne. He becomes Conner's guardian after his parents are killed in a car wreck leaving him and his brother at his mercy. Uncle Wayne is a horrible role model as a womanizer. He taught Conner how to use women and then move on to the next conquest.
The end of the movie did have some redeeming value but I left the theater very disappointed. I would not recommend this movie for anyone.
Language and crude and sexual material.
