Summary: LOVED THIS MOVIE!!!! FUNNY!!!!!
Comment: I loved this movie. It's one of my favorites. It's incredibly funny and romantic. This is one of those movies you'll watch over and over, again. It's a great movie to watch when you need a little pick me up. There wasn't one thing I didn't like about it. Great acting, great story.

Summary: Chick Flick Everyone Can Enjoy
Comment: How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days is not only a movie women can enjoy, but men as well. It's a humurous love story with an ending you would not expect. It's not your typical girl meets boy, and they fall in love story.
Kate Hudson works for a style magazine, and Matthew McConaughey works for an advertising company.They both end up dating one another for work. Kate uses Matthew for her next big story, "How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days" and Matthew uses Kate to beat out two coworkers in a job by making a bet that he could make her fall in love with him. After everything they put eachother through for work, they end up falling in love.
How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days kept my attention throughout the whole movie. I've also found that whenever deciding what movie to watch guys dont seem to mind watching this one, because its humur and unpredictable ending.

Summary: It sure lost this guy.
Comment: The trouble with being a single guy at my age (32) is that typically, all your male friends are either married or living with someone. So if you want to go to the movies with your friends, you typically wind up watching what their wives want to see. This is how I was roped into seeing "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days". This film has one thing going for it (and only one thing): Kate Hudson is hilarious playing the psycho girlfriend (and I've had a couple). Unfortunately, that might be enough for a 5-minute SNL skit or a guest appearance on a show like "Friends", but it's not enough to carry a 2-hour movie. Everything else in the film comes from the sitcom "Just Shoot Me": Kate Hudson's character is a serious journalist "trapped" working at a shallow fashion magazine, and the characters played by Bebe Neuwirth & Robert Klein are carbon copies of Wendie Malick & George Segal respectively in the aforementioned TV show. The "plot"--so to speak--is that Hudson's character is going to pick a guy to clamp on to, then drive him away with all the stuff that women do when they feel more needy than desirable, after which she will write an article called "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days". Meanwhile an ad exec (Matthew McConaughey, who I met a couple of times when we were in college together) bets his co-workers he can get anyone to fall in love with him. They pick each other for their respective projects and the bad chick-flick comedy cliches ensue. Another big problem I have with the movie is that it has nothing to do with the real world. Since when are the Knicks in the NBA finals each year? That hasn't happened since Jeff Van Gundy left. Also, as a Texan, I have come to accept that my accent is used for all sorts of rural types (Ohio in "Heathers", Alaska in "Northern Exposure", Minnesota in "A Simple Plan"); and I realize that in the movies, everywhere outside of New York City proper is supposed to be the sticks. But surely even the most elitist Manhattanite must realize that people from Staten Island do *not* speak with an exaggerated Southern drawl. For a single heterosexual male, watching this movie is like waiting for your sister to finish trying on outfits at a department store when you were a kid. You just wanted her to hurry up so you could go home and play video games. After watching this movie, I pulled "Tetris" out of the mothballs (OK it's on a hard drive, but you get the point) and found it immensely more entertaining than this film.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Fairly mindless, but always entertaining
Comment: I consider myself fairly picky about my romantic comedies, but this is one I happily own, even if I wouldn't consider it one of the best of all time. Still, it has the magic of Matthew and Kate (what a spark those two have!) playing wonderful roles that are almost reminiscent of those glamerous sex comedies of the sixties. They both steal (and therefore share) the spotlight of this wildly hilarious little romp. The story is a great and fun idea that is pulled off wonderfully by all involved. It's snappy, romantic, and ridiculous, but I like it.
