Summary: Conventional....Why???
Review: Thank God for beautiful women. I especially thank God for my fiancé. It's just too darn bad she has such conventional taste in movies. So of course I have gotten very used to the occasional chick flick. They make her laugh, even if I don't get it or care too. They fill her with glee but they fill me with loathing. But every once and while a chick flick comes along that is so conventional, and so silly. That I'm am filled with Apathy instead of loathing. So I guess that's the only way to describe HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN TEN DAYS: a conventional film that filled with apathy.Like every romantic comedy 10 DAYS tells the story of two beautiful people and how they get to know each other, falling in and out of love with each other, and then telling there less attractive friends about how happy they are. In this film those two people are Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson, Almost Famous) and Ben Barry (Matthew McConaughy, EDTV), they are so adorable their first names have that same first letter as their last name (they might want to shoot their parents). They each meet under dubious circumstances, she has to write and article about the mistakes women make while dating, and he has to make her fall in love with him to win an advertising account. So of course in the process they both fall in love and wild comedic scenes take place. What works in the film are Hudson and McConaughy, they have really nice chemistry together. They have a really sweet conversation when they first meet. It is constructed with just pithy little statements, and it is both silly and charming. Hudson also relishes torturing McConaughy with her silly dating games. The scene in which she breaks up the boy's poker game really enchanted me. Not a terribly inspired scene but it has a really nice comedic tone. So at least it worked for me. I also liked the scene at Ben's parent's house. The game of B.S. was inspired. This scene works because for once the colorful family doesn't act like buffoons. This scene is also much too good for this movie. I just hated that the film was so conventional. In the course of an hour and forty minutes, they meet, fall in love, fall out of love, and realize they both really love each other and live happily ever after. Its plot is constructed out of every romantic comedy cliche ever made. What also bothered me was that our two star-crossed lovers are far to good for the material. The concept would work without sitcom jokes and witty one liners; but of course in Hollywood unconventional ... If you are looking for a good night out with your lady friend, 10 DAYS will make her smile. But may I recommend a better romantic comedy, Benny and Joon. It's just a suggestion.

Summary: How to drag a painful movie out for 2 full hours
Review: Two great actors whose talents went to waste on a terrible plot and an unneeded second hour. Yes it has some funny parts, but it is more painful to watch than anything (think Meet the Parents). Do you like watching women tormenting men? Then this macabre movie is for you! And I adore Kate Hudson, but why doesn't she ever wear a bra?!! Just carrying on her mother's torch I suppose. Maybe when your boobs are small showing your nipples thru your clothes is almost as seductive as cleavage.

Summary: cute
Review: As for all romantic comedies, they are all totally predictable, but this one has some cute/funny twists, and after all these movies start to look the same, any new fresh change is welcome. Kate Hudson, looks and talks like her mother, Goldie Hawn, who was my favorite actress since i was a kid, and she gives of a great performance playing the whacky chick, trying to drive the guy away.
Matthew McConaughey is doing his best to win his part of the bet, while you watch his poor face, you cant help but like him.
For once the actors have some chemistry together, and thats a big plus.
Cute movie, enough said.

Summary: NEW TWIST!
Review: Andie (Kate Hudson) works for a 'ladies' magazine. After her
friend is dumped by a guy Andie is rather cornered into writing
an article on the topic " How To Lose a Guy in 10 Days."
Ben(Matthew McConaughey) works in advertising, wanting to land
a top job, he makes a bet that he can get a woman to fall in love
with him in 10 days. There you have the storyline.
I have to admit I think it was a great twist on a boy meets girl
movie, something new and out of the norm.
Matthew is adorable and plays his part to a T, and Ms. Hudson
is top notch as well.
I liked the movie, it was light and fun! A good relaxing film!

Review: Great movie. very funny-- it isn't a likely to happen movie. However it is parts of relationships all put together into one. I think it was very funny and Hudson and Matthew M. worked well together. Highly recommend

Summary: Fun romantic comedy
Review: This movie is better than I expected it would be. Kate Hudson plays a magazine writer whose boss requires inane articles from her when she would rather write about something more serious. She agrees to write an article on "How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days" so that her editor will then allow her to write something more substantial. Meanwhile Matthew McConaughey is trying to win a lucrative diamond account for his advertising firm by making a girl fall in love with him in 10 days. When these two meet, the sparks begin to fly as they carry out their opposite agendas. There are quite a few funny scenes and Hudson and McConaughey create some nice chemistry in the scenes they have together. Watching this DVD is a fun way to spend an evening.

Summary: It'll definitely make you laugh!
Review: This is a cute little chick flick and it will definitely make you laugh. It is about a magazine writer (Kate Hudson) who decides to date a guy, make all the mistakes girls make that drive guys away, and record what happens in a journal so that she can write an article later on. Her inspiration was when her best friend was dumped by her boyfriend for the umpteenth time and the magazine company was bugging her about writing an article. The guy she picks (the handsome Matthew McConaughey) is an advertising executive who's just bet that he can make a woman fall in love with him in ten days so that he'll win a huge account that will make his career. McConaughey doesn't know what he's in for when he asks out the beautiful Hudson. He is charming, but she is just outright annoying, buying a relationship fern and moving in all of her feminine products into his bathroom without asking him. When he spends all afternoon cooking a delicious supper for Hudson to impress her about his cooking abilities, she starts crying and says that she is vegetarian! When they go out to eat, Hudson makes a scene in the restaurant about him not really loving her, and everyone stares at him with contempt! And what do you know, Hudson falls in love with him and does not want to do the article! It is a really funny movie. I highly recommend it if you just want a funny comedy to watch.

Summary: Dumb, unfunny
Review: I hated this dreadful thing. J. Lo is so overhyped. This is a total rip-off of Pretty Woman. Miss Lo is working as a toilet cleaner at a motel out on Route 9 in Jersey. There, she meets a mysterious millionaire and he pays her to be his date at some high society functions in New York City and she tells him she is a sure thing. When they get to New York, J. Lo gets a parttime job at a law firm because she has three kids to support. There, she discovers that uranium from a local power company has poisoned the water and Miss Lo fights city hall to get the proper reparations. Then, she falls in love with this guy who runs off to France. Afraid to fly, she takes lessons on overcoming it and falls in love with this other guy on the plane to France. After they return, they move to Seattle, but she meets this widowed man on the radio and they run off together to open up competing bookstores back in Manhattan. Then, she takes a cross-country car trip with Billy Crystal. When she finally gets to L.A. they get married, but she soon realizes the Billy Crystal character is a wife-beater and she is trapped in the huge glass house on the beach with no friends and only some Egyptian artifacts. So, crafty J. Lo fakes her own death by drowning and moves to a small college town under a new name and falls for a professor. She tires of the small town life and heads back to Manhattan and becomes a big journalist, only to find out that her estranged mother is mad at her, so her mother's friends kidnap her and take her back to make up with her mother and initiate her into some kind of silly "sisterhood" clan. J. Lo finally settles down with her high school sweetheart and there is a big outdoor wedding at her mother's home and everyone in town is invited. Her mother has to give her a kidney, though, and she later has a baby. Then, she starts having an affair with Andy Garcia and becomes an alcoholic and goes into rehab. There, she learns that she had hurt everyone in her life, particuarly her sister, and to make it up, becomes an FBI agent and goes undercover at Miss America to find a deranged psycho killer after the pageant girls. After she catches the pageant killer and frees the woman he has in his well in his basement, she takes a trip to Tahiti, but she and a pilot played by Harrison Ford get stranded on a deserted island. There, they meet her old widower husband from Seattle who washed ashore after a plane crash. They get off the island with the help of a mermaid played by Darrly Hannah and J. Lo ends up coaching Madonna's softball team. It was really long and complicated. It totally wasn't funny at all.
