Matthew Mcconaughey Reviews, Interviews & More
Matthew McConaughey has had something of a charmed time lately—the actor has evolved from playing the smirking lead in the kind of smarmy romantic comedies that are now populated by Gerard Butler and Katherine Heigl to starring in such films as Magic Mike, Mud, Bernie, and Killer Joe. It’s been a bizarre and abrupt transition, but one...
Director and screenwriter Jeff Nichols wowed us all in 2011 with Take Shelter and this year returns to Sundance Film Festival with Mud.

In 2012, Matthew McConaughey churned out the most consistent (and consistently entertaining) year of his career, with a hypnotizing and disturbing star turn in Killer Joe and excellent performances in both Magic Mike and Bernie. And if the trailer for Mud is any indication, McConaughey’s hot streak will likely stretch into 2013. Check...
It's not unusual for an actor to go on an extreme weight loss diet to prepare for a role. Actors do this all the time, but sometimes there's a case that's just shocking.

All of the said actors appear in the following clips from the film. Take a look...
The Lincoln Lawyer just got a little more exciting with its new high-action trailer. It has more twists, more action, more subplots, lots of good actors -- looks like it's time for another good crime-drama-thriller (it's a new name for an old category). Though these types of films have been done to death, there's nothing like a good thriller to revitalize the genre and...
Matthew McConaughey is back to wearing clothes again for his upcoming movie The Lincoln Lawyer.
