This movie was boring boring boring and full of overused tropes. I'm so tired of the white male protagonist children "growing up" movies (which p.s. they learned nothing) and misogynistic archetypes.

I'm so tired of the white male protagonist children "growing up" movies (which p.s. they learned nothing) and misogynistic archetypes. And also I can't be the only one sick of Matthew McConaughey playing the mystical mysterious man, even if his abs are amazing. Yes, nice directing, but that does not save this movie from being super boring and panhandling to the same audience of white dudes feeling sentimental about their childhood and women being awful.… Expand

. Mud was boring , really boring and I felt it got no where throughout it , McConaughey is great as are the kid actors but it was just boring it got nowhere it was just like watching this hobos life. Defiantly overrated.

Because submitted reviews have to be 150 characters long, I have to keep on typing. When all I have to say about the movie is, ZZZZzzzzz, ZZZZzzzzz.

There's nothing particularly bad about this movie, but also nothing entirely amazing. The younger actors were entirely unconvincing and showed almost no emotion throughout the majority of the film. It wasn't bad, but it definitely was not that good.

The most over rated movie of the year and quite possibly history. They finally figured out how to make McConaughey shine as an actor surround him with other horrific actors. He plays a homeless, starving vagrant. At one point, they mentionThe most over rated movie of the year and quite possibly history. They finally figured out how to make McConaughey shine as an actor surround him with other horrific actors. He plays a homeless, starving vagrant. At one point, they mention his shirt and I thought, here it comes, he's going to take his damn shirt off (mandatory in all his movies). Of course, they contrive a way and he takes his shirt off and he's all ripped he can't find food but manages to hit the gym 3 times a day. Absurd… Expand

Dans ce "Mud", Matthew le bellâtre quelque peu écorné joue un crevard qui mène en bateau deux ados naïfs, dont l'un très impulsif raisonne avec les poings plus qu'à son tour : il m'a l'air bien mal élevé ce gamin ! En tout cas, sur les bordsDans ce "Mud", Matthew le bellâtre quelque peu écorné joue un crevard qui mène en bateau deux ados naïfs, dont l'un très impulsif raisonne avec les poings plus qu'à son tour : il m'a l'air bien mal élevé ce gamin ! En tout cas, sur les bords du Mississipi magnifiquement filmé ici, se déroule l'une des histoires les plus invraisemblables qui puisse être racontée, très mollement racontée.

On mettra ça sur le compte de la poésie que le réalisateur a voulu insufler à son baratin sur la naïveté de l'adolescence et le dépit amoureux en général mais tout de même, que c'est lent, apathique et chiant ! en dehors de sa langueur contagieuse et soporifique, l'histoire échoue à impliquer le spectateur qui n'éprouve aucune empathie particulière ni pour ce type à la morale à deux vitesses, ni pour les ados plus souvent idiots que crédibles dans leur comportement.

"Mud" rajoute en effet du côté des gamins une bonne dose de drame social à son histoire à dormir debout, ce qui ne fait qu'alourdir ce qui était déjà passablement lourdingue. Le coup du bateau perché n'est que la plus grosse invraisemblance parmi d'autres, à croire que nous ne sommes que les canards sauvages du Mississipi pour gober un tel tissu de conneries...

La fin n'assure pas non plus et se veut bêtement consensuelle et familiale : elle nous prend de facto pour des ravis de la crèche. Si les **** gars font ce qu'ils peuvent, Matthew Mcmachin reste désespérément peu convaincant, pour ne pas dire carrément mauvais ; quant à la blondasse plus très fraîche au nom de cuiller, elle fait carrément de la peine.

La réalisation est appliquée (bien qu'avachie) et la photo est belle mais franchement, que c'est bateau ce truc lénifiant qui nous passe par dessus la tête !… Expand
