i wasn not expect much from this movie since i think the whole christmas carol theme have be beat to death already and but hop at least for a few laugh . i think the only thing that make me chuckle at all be the very end of the movie when michael douglas character be hit on the other ghost . i be not a big fan of matthew mcconaughey and usually i be just indifferent to him . but i find him and his character extremely annoy in this movie . he be very unlikeable and and i couldn not find myself root for him at all . he do not even look attractive most of the time look like he hadn not sleep in day and and look just plain horrible during the flash back to a time he have long hair . it really make me question why so many woman want to sleep with him . i like jennifer garner and but this be definitely not one of her good movie . i think a lot of it have to do with the writing of the role . when she first see conner ( matthew mcconaughey ) at his brother wedding rehearsal and she come across a a nagging wife to him before the audience even know they have a history . it be just a tad bit overdone . and a many others have mention and there be just no believable chemistry between them . i be sick of the whole story before the first ghost even show up . the sexual wisecrack sound like bad pick up line and and the attempt at special effect be lame at best . i find myself want to scream realize that two more ghost still need to make an appearance if it be to follow the christmas carol theme . luckily it look like they edit the heck out of it and both be really short sequence . i would have turn the movie off if i wasn not watch it with someone who do chuckle a few time . she be rather surprised that i dislike it so much since i usually like romantic comedy and but i would rather watch made of honor than to ever watch this one again .
