Reviews for How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
a shallow, convoluted love story with some cheap laughs wrapped around an infomercial
02/07/03
A novel concept...botched with juvenile execution.
02/07/03
full of potent one-liners... but they're mired in a plot that constantly teeters between innocuous silliness and flat-out absurdity: You might swear you saw this same screwy scenario in a 1964 Sandra Dee/Bobby Darin movie on the Late Late Show.
02/07/03
Hits all the spots that most successful romantic comedies do, and has some decent laughs mixed in.
02/07/03
Should have been called How to Lose an Audience in 10 Minutes, because that's how long it takes to alienate you with its overly convoluted premise.
02/07/03
The results are supposed to be funny, but are instead painful.
02/07/03
If Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey weren't so darn easy on the eyes, the only thing this 'battle of the sexes' film would be losing is its audience.

Top CriticWhen his mother whispers in Andie's ear, "Don't you break his heart," the double-double-cross plot takes a backseat to the really in-love plot. They play cards, ride his motorcycle, get splashed in a puddle, have sex in the bathroom. She's so cute, he's s

The picture is entertaining, and it will probably be a big hit, but it's an opportunity wasted.
02/07/03
The biggest challenge to viewing 10 Days is deciding whether to think of its lead characters as 'despicable swine' or 'vile dung-weasels.'
02/07/03
Days is a watered-down, lightweight version of War of the Roses made for people who still think Friends is funny.
02/07/03
Clumsy, overlong.
02/07/03
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days dishes up a healthy serving of the fun that should be -- and too often isn't -- at the heart of a good romantic comedy.
02/07/03
The picture is actually watchable.
02/07/03
Want to get rid of that guy who's driving you crazy? Drag him to this lame romantic comedy starring Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey.
02/07/03
I am just about ready to write off movies in which people make bets about whether they will, or will not, fall in love.
02/07/03
Top CriticRiddled with cliché plot devices and dialogue that's as superficial as the glossy fashion magazine the lead character writes for.
02/07/03
If How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days turns out to be a $75 million hit as I suspect, then it will no longer matter if the same script is dusted off and the names changed to protect the innocent, because it’s the audiences that are guilty.
