How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days (2003)

Boring

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

In order to advance in her career, Andie must write an article about how to lose a guy in 10 days, so she gets Ben as her guinea pig. Unbeknownst to her, Ben has a bet of his own, also regarding his career, so he will prove to be a very hard player in their love game. Unfortunately or fortunately for both of them, their respective bets are about to transform into something more than expected and coping with the new experience will be a challenge they will have to face together.It's a romantic movie, which features the perils of two people which are willing to make many sacrifices in order to win, thus taking the game to a whole new level. It is very pleasant and enjoyable, emotional and thrilling while sometimes funny and dramatic. It's a must see of the genre and a very good movie overall!

I was quite entertained with this movie especially after so many disappointments lately.Everyone should give this movie a chance. I can guarantee that you won;t be disappointed if you don't set your expectations too high.It;s very written and directly. I was guessing along the movie what;s going to happen next. There wasn't a boring moment in the movie.To all the haters , why all the hate. i don;t understand why would anyone hate this movie.Kudos to the director and writer. I would be watching Ms. Congenialty next.

I'll be honest, when I first started watching this, I wasn't expecting anything too great, or original. The premise doesn't exactly feel logical (woman wants to become a respectable journalist, therefore writes article on deliberately sabotaging a relationship) or natural (mans accepts bet to make a woman fall in love with him in 10 days because...the plot demands it, I guess!), and to be honest, this is the films biggest failing. Any chemistry between the two leads is completely worthless, because the audience knows the entire thing is a sham. That said, there are a few laughs to be had here, and the adequate performances all round mean this isn't awful viewing by any means. Matthew McConaughey doesn't exactly break any new ground here, playing a smug, well-off everyman, but he does serve as a good foil for Kate Hudson, who delivers a performance that really tests the viewers patience. Yes, I realise the point is to be annoying to try and drive off the guy, but it doesn't exactly make for good viewing!The supporting cast is what you'd expect, an array of mildly entertaining but decidedly two-dimensional characters whose sole purpose in life is to gravitate around the leads. The film-making and plot of the film are passable, nothing special but nothing awful either. All in all, I would say this is by no means an awful film, and if it happens to be on and you've no other choice, it's worth wasting a couple of hours on. But it is incredibly average, and let down by a premise which makes you wonder if you even want a happy ending!

This movie is a very cute and well made romantic comedy. This movie well casted as well, Kate Hudson and Matthew are great in this movie, and they also have wonderful chemistry. The script is well written too, and the dialogue between all the characters is well constructed. The romance Is really cute and it's believable because of the great chemistry the leads share. There is also good comedy to be enjoyed here, lots of very amusing lines and scenes. I think If you enjoy a well made romantic comedy with good acting, then this is the one for you. 8/10 for How to lose a guy in 10 days. That's really all there is to it, I strongly recommend how to lose a guy in 10 days.
