A perfect, well-created, romantic comedy! Kate Hudson and Matthew Mcconaughey act great together. I laughed for days after I saw this film! Although it is all meant to be funny, makes some great points about what men really hate in women! Hilarious because it's so true. Great movie for a date night!

It's pleasant and there's definately a sparkle between McConaughey and Hudson, but the plot is tired and cliched and the dialogues are ridiculously empty and pointless. On the plus side, you 'll never see the ending coming. (Spoiler: They fall in love)

If stupid were a sin this one would be going straight to Hell. For whatever reason (besides the obvious good looking exterior) women have decided they LOVE Matthew McConaughey. Well I really don't get it. He's not compelling or truly charismatic. Kate Hudson does her bubbly best to try and keep this one funny, and she does succeed some of the time, but ultimately the movie is so standard rom-com that it betrays all her best efforts. Watch for the ridiculous reveal scene at the party toward

Decent concept, terrible execution. The movie is quite often painful to watch, brimming with contrivances and pure unadulterated stupidity. Hudson doesn't have it in her to carry a movie like this, and what charms McConaughey does have are wasted on this awful script. There was a time where he made this movie over and over and over again. Hopefully he's finally out of that phase, but women love him in this crap, so who knows.

Or: How To Lose Me In 10 Minutes - not quite as bad as that pun would suggest; in fact this premise could have worked had it been pitched as a tighter, escalating farce with higher stakes and more scurrilous actors - McConaughey and Hudson can't play this nastily enough with their best moments coming during the quite lovely Staten Island visit (the second half plays much better once they begin to soften). Side notes: the William Duell cameo was nice, and co-produced by Robert Evans?

HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS isn't a bad film, just a funny idea placed in a tired and predictable plot. I would recommend this strictly for the crowd who watch all romantic comedies, or for fans of the two appealing stars. Everyone else might be left wondering if the screenwriters also read a book called, How to Write a Script in 10 Days.

These two have the best on screen chemistry of any rom-com duo ever. Matthew McConaughey is so honest in everything he does and him and Kate Hudson take the silly plot and make something with real emotional depth. And yes, there are harmful gendered stereotypes here, but for a 2003 rom-com it's not bad. Love this movie

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is your usual run of the mill mushy rom-com. It's bad enough that this film is packed with countless cliches, but what makes this film even worse is it's completely moronic concept. In real life there is absoultely no way anybody could tolerate, never mind fall in love with two such ridiculous characters. Kate Hudson's performance is painful to watch, whilst Matthew McConaughey frustratingly somehow keeps settling for these terribly generic and sleazy roles.

Mistakes - 1) Women staring at Benjamin in an office scene, in the next shot they are then seen working with photocopiers and such, but then in the next shot, they're back to staring at Benjamin. 2) Benjamin's mug changes colour in another office scene. 3) In the basketball scene, the timer on the scoreboard and TV change several times.

Among all the chick flicks (and also a guy movie in some ways), this one manages to be funny thanks to Kate Hudson. Her job, the side characters, best friend, the "man", are so full of cliches, still she manages to pull it off. Good for laughs with pop corn.
