Consensus: My Best Friend's Girl spends too much time being vulgar and offensive, leaving little room for laughs.
Theatrical Release:21-11-2008
Synopsis: Love conquers even the relentlessly foulmouthed Lothario played by master-class comic Dane Cook (GOOD LUCK CHUCK) in MY BEST FRIEND'S GIRL. Tank (Cook) moonlights as an "emotional terrorist," which... [More]

Reviews for My Best Friend's Girl
This is one of those films that would be enormously improved by the arrival of 100 crazy Somali pirates who would proceed to take the entire cast hostage.
11/21/08
Tedious, largely unfunny and poorly written comedy with the least likeable collection of characters you'll see all year.
11/21/08
My Best Friend's Girl isn't just a misfire; it's a misfire compounded by a chain of miscalculations, and it's hard to figure out who this could appeal to (except, perhaps, Dane Cook's fan club).
09/19/08
A nauseating fraud from start to finish ... The film's level of awfulness is nothing new for Cook, but Hudson hits a new low.
09/21/08
It attempts to go all warm and fuzzy. It succeeds. But it is the warm and fuzzy stuff that grows on a compost heap after a heavy rain
09/20/08
An ugly, strictly-for-meatheads comedy that can only be recommended to couples who wear matching Tie Domi Toronto Maple Leafs jerseys out on a date.
09/22/08
Mean, crass and tasteless, "My Best Friend's Girl" is only pretending to be a romantic comedy.
09/27/08
Golden Girl Kate Hudson gets tarnished by associating with Dane Cook in this tasteless, terrible movie
09/23/08
A rude, crude romantic comedy with a touch of nastiness that's refreshing and quite funny.
10/10/08
Want to spend a seemingly endless 100 minutes watching a dullard trying to decide between a douchebag and a eunuch? Then run, don't walk, to My Best Friend's Girl, a supremely irritating movie about idiots and their dull quest for unconvincing love
09/19/08
You should steer well clear of the nasty ideas that screenwriter Jordan Cahan has about relationships and how they work.
10/10/08
'There's this guy, Tank, and other guys hire him to give their exes "emotional terrorism." It's a romantic comedy.''Can you throw in a cheap anti-Catholic and anti-Semitic joke? And have Tank tell some kids how to pull a brutal sexaul trick on a woman?'
10/09/08
The movie spends a lot of time trying to be cute, vulgar and cutely vulgar. But it forgets about character, plot and believability.
09/19/08
If you like watching anarchy in action, this exhibition has its moments, but the anti-woman humour underpinning it -- and Cook's whole performance -- does cast a pall.
10/10/08
Yet another in a continuing line of dismal Dane Cook so-called romantic comedies.
11/20/08
Induces that dull pain at the back of the head that I believe to be the result of brain cells crawling away to die of embarrassment.
09/24/08
My Best Friend's Girl ultimately fails to measure up to its own standards.
09/21/08
It's coarse and funny, but there's something really endearing about this twisted romantic comedy in which the protagonist excels at being a self-proclaimed emotional terrorist
10/04/08
It works much better as a comedy, but by the end, the romantic aspect has taken over and there's not much humor to be found after the first half.
