Today's Box Office: Mud

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (KTHV) -- THV 11 Film Critic Jonathan Nettles on Mud the latest film from Arkansas director Jeff Nichols starring Matthew McConaughey.

I am not a fan of Matthew McConaughey. To me, he started off strong with dramas like The Pelican Brief and Contact but then got stuck in the romantic comedy black hole from which few escape. Recently, he's returned to dramatic roles, taking some risks and leaping out of the black hole. It started with The Lincoln Lawyer and carried through Magic Mike and Killing Joe. This is where we are with Mud.
