"Oily Cocoa-Butter Narcissism."

That delicious phrase, describing actor Matthew McConaughey in his new movie Ghosts of Girlfriends Past, is taken from Owen Gleiberman's review in the May 8 issue of Entertainment Weekly.

And how's this for an editorial bulls-eye: "Dimpled vivacity," his characterization of McConaughey's co-star Jennifer Garner.

I'd call the writing "trenchant criticism." It's my must-read dose of weekly pop culture.
