Reviews for How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
...despite reservations about the goofy plot and the cocky characters, the movie proceeds pleasantly enough.

Has just enough substance beneath the surface throw the romantic comedy some much needed freshness.

Top Critic[McConaughey] and Hudson make the premise, even in its shakier moments, vibrate with a sense of fun.

It’s hard to believe that this drivel was based on a book… but Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson make it somewhat tolerable at least.

Kate Hudson's impressive comic flair almost saves this implausible romantic comedy.
09/25/03
Offers nothing new to the genre, but for those who like light tales of meet-cute and happily-ever-after, it'll probably be as welcome as a tub of double-fudge ice cream.
09/06/03
The film has charm and even some grace...An offhandedly luscious vision that the actors are careful not to muss.
07/19/03
if only filmmakers out there would take a how-to course on making romantic comedies with more than just laughs and star appeal, we might actually be making some progress.
07/17/03
Like he did with Miss Congeniality, Donald Petrie is able to fuel an implausible, eyes-roller of a plot with genuine laughs and a perfectly clownish lead female performance
07/17/03
. . .a fluffy farce of romance and vulnerability – and not just the female’s take, but the male perspective as well.
06/05/03
The comedy in the film works very well. The romance isn't quite as convincing, but good acting and romantic chemistry prevail.

Wander in after 30 minutes and split an hour later, otherwise you may feel like you've been used.

. I hate to label this lightweight romp a "chick flick", but when the title actually issues a challenge to the fairer sex, well, the writing is on the wall.
