In a world grown weary of politicians who think theyâre celebrities and celebrities who think theyâre politicians, the news that Matthew McConaughey was considering a run for Texas Governor in 2022 drew an unusual response. It sounded a lot like âall right, all right, all rightâ.
Good-looking, funny, committed to family and guided by God, with a strong ethos of respect for self and others and a winning combination of wild ambition and self-deprecation, McConaughey is easy to like, especially in America where those things induce little of the squeamishness they might do here.

Hulu
I can t believe this is a film that was almost never released. Directed by Joe Carnahan (
The Grey, The A-Team, Smokin Aces), it was planned for release on Aug. 16, 2019. Instead it was shelved. Thank goodness it s found a home on Hulu. It s a hoot!
Following the now well-worn idea of
Groundhog Day, the story trails former Special Forces operative Roy Pulver (Frank Grillo) as he relives the day of his death over and over again. Like
Edge of Tomorrow (2014), every day Roy gets a little further through the day before he s inevitable killed by one of a cadre of colorful assassins. Think of it like a video game and the player trying to level up.
