Don't Get Stuck watching MUD
The movie MUD, now out on rental is not worth wasting time watching. The movie stars Matthew McConaughey & Reese Witherspoon. The publicity that came out simultaneously with the movie's release, was not favorable. Acadamey Award winning actress Witherspoon & her husband were stopped & arrested for drunk driving. While her talent agent husband was intoxicated behind the wheel, Witherspoon jumped out of the car & ranted at the arresting officer, "Do you know who I am? Well you're about to find out." The media disclosed how talented of an actress Ms. Witherspoon is. She had most of us hoodwinked into perceiving her as irreproachable. The facade has been shattered. Ms. Witherspoon should not be persecuted for being cast in MUD which is mired in crud. However, Witherspoon is guilty of flaunting her star status at a police officer who was doing his job by pulling over her husband for DUI. More flagrant than her affront of being above the law, is the fact that she & her spouse chose to get behind the wheel drunk. The shows total disregard to the safety of everyone else on the road. I couldn't tolerate finishing MUD as it was slow as molasses. I will not forgive or forget Witherspoon's flagrant disregard of the law and will pass on any other vehicle in which she is found.
