How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days movie stills
Reviews provided by RottenTomatoes
Bruce Newman, San Jose Mercury News: This is a movie that never aspires to be anything more than dimwitted fun, then falls on its aspirations. Read more
Wesley Morris, Boston Globe: The hottest couple to come down the pike recently has been Frodo and Sam. Hudson and McConaughey rate higher on the spark-o-meter. Read more
Terry Lawson, Detroit Free Press: You not only have to be seriously testosterone- deprived to survive this film without embarrassment, you have to buy a romantic premise so ridiculously contrived that even Dr. Ruth might suspect someone was pulling her little leg. Read more
Connie Ogle, Miami Herald: In contrast to the horrifically stupid, dull romantic comedies the past month or two have brought us, How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is almost, but not quite, a breath of fresh air. Read more
Richard Roeper, Ebert & Roeper: This tortured premise to get them together and the things they go through, every minute of it just lies flat on the screen. Read more
Michael Wilmington, Chicago Tribune: There may be some way to make this nonsense amusing, but writers Kristen Buckley and Brian Regan haven't even figured out a reasonable setup for getting the two together. Read more
A.O. Scott, New York Times: If the movie provides no new insight into the contrasting behavior of men and women or the perils of postmodern urban dating, falling well shy of the not-too-high standard set by 'Sex and the City' on both fronts, it does have its tart, fizzy moments. Read more
Eleanor Ringel Gillespie, Atlanta Journal-Constitution: How to Lose a Guy smoothly satirizes the superficiality of man-hungry women and the soullessness of sex-hungry men. Read more
Kenneth Turan, Los Angeles Times: A too-long title is just the first problem for this too-long, misguided, so-called romantic comedy. Read more
Jonathan Rosenbaum, Chicago Reader: Both lovers are duplicitous creeps -- in a perverse way they're made for each other. Read more
Bruce Westbrook, Houston Chronicle: After a frothy start, How to Lose (an apt abbreviation) becomes a one-joke comedy of slapstick suffering. Read more
Ricardo Baca, Denver Post: Lackluster. Read more
Owen Gleiberman, Entertainment Weekly: With its ungainly double-deception premise, How to Lose a Guy feels like it was made out of two connect-the-dots drawings laid haphazardly on top of one another. Read more
Rick Groen, Globe and Mail: The picture is actually watchable. Read more
Philip Wuntch, Dallas Morning News: How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days will test your cuteness tolerance level. Read more
Hazel-Dawn Dumpert, L.A. Weekly: Mutual deception as a comedic conceit predates Shakespeare, and it certainly shows its age in this creaker. Read more
Rex Reed, New York Observer: More an exercise in how to lose an audience in 10 minutes. Read more
James Berardinelli, ReelViews: This movie is so intent upon getting cheap laughs and putting the protagonists in uncomfortable situations that it forgets they're supposed to be falling in love. Read more
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times: I am just about ready to write off movies in which people make bets about whether they will, or will not, fall in love. Read more
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com: The movie would have been so much better if it had jumped into its mean-spiritedness with gusto and passion, instead of just splashing around in it halfheartedly. Read more
Mick LaSalle, San Francisco Chronicle: It's about as close to French farce as romantic comedies get, and the closer the better. Read more
David Edelstein, Slate: The picture is entertaining, and it will probably be a big hit, but it's an opportunity wasted. Read more
Jeff Strickler, Minneapolis Star Tribune: Read more
Peter Howell, Toronto Star: For once, here's a screen couple that easily adds up. Read more
Robert Koehler, Variety: This is the kind of movie that was doomed on the page, both by an inherently problematic premise and ill-conceived character motivations. Read more
Laura Sinagra, Village Voice: Read more
Ann Hornaday, Washington Post: Resorts to the kinds of cliches that were so yesterday two weeks ago. Read more
