nbaer-74881 This movie was very nice! It made me feel warm inside and I appreciate the quirkiness of it! Even though I slept for some of it I throughly enjoyed this romcom and it truly made my night :)
Dr_Sagan Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey are paired by Hollywood to star in a few movies as modern couple. There is some chemistry between them but not so much as the producers might wish for.Anyway, this is romantic comedy with a ridiculous premise to justify the weird situations and gags you will experience by seeing it. Obviously the movie being romantic and having jokes of this specific kind is designed to have an appeal in women. I honestly can't expect a group of guys for example, watching such a silly movie.And yes. It is silly. But not necessarily in a bad way. The production is good, the music old time romantic and the whole set-up is build like a fairy tale. Some light drama and a predicable outcome.
Gideon24 Despite charismatic leads and some funny situations, the 2003 comedy How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days doesn't really sustain its paper-thin premise for the film's entire running time.The film stars Kate Hudson as Andie Anderson, a magazine writer who has been assigned to write the title article for her magazine and has chosen one Benjamin Barry (Matthew McConaughey) as the objective of demonstrating her article. Unknown to Anderson, Barry has bet co- workers that he can make a woman fall in love with him in 10 days.his film, based on a pair of books by Michele Alexander and Jeanne Long, just doesn't possess the substance to actually admit to being inspired by two different books. I can't believe that it took 2 books to come up with an uninspired comedy that comes off as a tired retread of the Doris Day Rock Hudson comedies of the 60's.Donald Petrie's direction is a little on the pedestrian side, but the leads are attractive and there are effective supporting bits offered along the way by Bebe Neuwirth, Robert Klein, Adam Goldberg, Kathryn Hahn, and Celia Weston, but I guess your appreciation of the film depends on how much you love Hudson and McConaughey, whose obvious on screen chemistry just wasn't enough to make this film work.
g-bodyl How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is a pretty good, charming romantic comedy even though it's very predictable and plays it safe. I could see the ending from miles away but it's how the movie plays to the ending that affects whether this film is watchable or not. For the most part, it does work thanks to the charming leads of Matthew McConaughey and Kate Hudson.Donald Petrie's film is basically a film about the battle of the sexes. The girl works for Cosmopolitan magazine and the guy works at a sports agency and they both hook up with each other despite each person is lying to the other.The acting is pretty good especially with the kind of script they have been given. McConaughey is always charming and does a good job while Hudson is actually likable for once and is remotely interesting.Overall, this is a good but very predictable rom com. It doesn't being anything new to the table but it's still enjoyable. A predictable script that should have been a wasted opportunity brings a new light with this movie. I rate this film 8/10.
