The Beach Bum 2019
A 2019 American stoner comedy film, The Beach Bum stars Matthew McConaughey, Snoop Dogg, Isla Fisher, Jimmy Buffett in his final feature film, Zac Efron and Martin Lawrence, with Stefania LaVie Owen and Jonah Hill in supporting roles. Written and directed by Harmony Korine, the story centers on stoner poet Moondog (McConaughey) living in the Florida Keys while attempting to complete his novel and gain his daughter's respect and his wife's estate portion after her death in a car accident. The film had its world premiere at South by Southwest on March 9, 2019 and opened theatrically in the United States on March 29, 2019 through Neon. Critics responded with mixed reviews; some found it "joyous" while others called it an "epic goof", though McConaughey's acting was widely praised. The movie failed at the box office, earning $4.6 million globally against a $5 million budget.
