(1 - 39) of 39 OFCS Rating: 49% Rotten Page   1   "Kate Hudson's impressive comic flair almost saves this implausible romantic comedy."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Betty Jo Tucker 1.5/5 "Not only does 10 Days rely on that old standby of romantic comedies -- "the bet" -- it one-ups the cliché with two bets!"   Filmcritic.com   Christopher Null "When his mother whispers in Andie's ear, "Don't you break his heart," the double-double-cross plot takes a backseat to the really in-love plot. They play cards, ride his motorcycle, get splashed in a puddle, have sex in the bathroom. She's so cute, he's s"   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 3/5 "10 Days may be predictable, but it’s still quite entertaining. "   eFilmCritic.com   David Cornelius C+ "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."   EDGE Boston   David Foucher 2.5/4 "Though the majority of the film is laughably predictable (you just know there's going be a drawn-out sequence in which both characters learn about the other's deception), there's a lot worth recommending about How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair "Hudson and McConaughey ... sell the material with such likable sincerity that they manage to keep this leaky boat afloat during even the most appalling scenes."   Portland Tribune   Dawn Taylor 2/4 "An entertaining trifle to a point...but it doesn't treat the character's or the audience's intelligence with the respect they deserve. By the end, you just don't care anymore."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman 1.5/4 "If you’re working for The New Yorker, the legality of Laura Elena Harring’s breasts is not an appropriate pitch for your “Annals of Law” column."   Slant Magazine   Ed Gonzalez B- "By any impartial system of judgment, it is at best a mediocre film, but within its genre, it’s better than some."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider 2/4 "If How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days turns out to be a $75 million hit as I suspect, then it will no longer matter if the same script is dusted off and the names changed to protect the innocent, because it’s the audiences that are guilty."   eFilmCritic.com   Erik Childress 2/4 "...breezy and manipulative...This piece of dating dreck is so sticky sweet and syrupy that one would think they screened Petrie’s film at the International House of Pancakes!"   Movie Eye   Frank Ochieng D "Cinematic costume jewelry...a more appropriate title would be 'How to Lose an Audience in 10 Minutes.'"   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek "How to Lose A Guy in 10 Days explores sexual politics in many winning and funny ways and proves that equanimity in a man is a great aphrodisiac."   Spirituality and Practice   Frederic and Mary Ann Brussat 2.5/4 "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."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 2/5 "The funny stuff at the heart of this film struggles in vain to free itself from a cage made of old romantic-comedy cliches."   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/4 "A tasty romantic comedy, featuring the battle of the sexes in its most fanciful light."   Palo Alto Weekly   Jeanne Aufmuth 4/10 "So much of the picture misfires and/or simply doesn't work or make sense that the total package is not as good, enjoyable or entertaining as it should be."   Screen It!   Jim Judy 6/10 "This film will likely be enjoyed by anyone who has gone through their own share of 'clingy' girlfriends with a number of laughs and enough overall entertainment to recommend to anyone looking for a fun night out with their honey."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 2/10 "Days is a watered-down, lightweight version of War of the Roses made for people who still think Friends is funny."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 3/4 "'Hudson y McConaughey salvan el resultado final gracias simplemente a su encanto personal.'"   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 3/4 "... before labeling this as just another chick flick, keep in mind that it's a whole lot more enjoyable than most of the current pre-summer blockbuster-wannabes that studios are unloading right now."   MovieCrypt.com   Kevin A. Ranson B- "Should have been called How to Lose an Audience in 10 Minutes, because that's how long it takes to alienate you with its overly convoluted premise."   Countingdown.com   Larry Carroll 2.5/5 "Though something less than a masterpiece of the genre, this good-natured skirmish in the war between men and women benefits from Hudson's thoroughly charming performance."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh 1.5/4 "In what civilization is this kind of behavior romantic?"   Mark Reviews Movies   Mark Dujsik "She’s selling low self-esteem and an impossible image of femininity and he’s selling pieces of rock mined by slave labor and made artificially scarce by evil monopolies. Maybe they really are made for each other."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 3/4 "This is a pure bubblegum picture, but it works at that level."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan B+ "Kate Hudson is irresistably adorable in this frothy comedy about the head-on-collision between two competing bets and one overpowering attraction."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 4/5 "Leve e divertida, esta produção serve como prova de que, mesmo carregada de clichês, uma comédia romântica pode funcionar muito bem."   Cinema em Cena   Pablo Villaca B "The comedy in the film works very well. The romance isn't quite as convincing, but good acting and romantic chemistry prevail."   Laramie Movie Scope   Robert Roten 72/100 "Has just enough substance beneath the surface throw the romantic comedy some much needed freshness."   Apollo Guide   Ryan Cracknell B- "... it is pretty funny, if exaggerated to cartoonish extremes and contrived beyond belief."   Seattle Post-Intelligencer   Sean Axmaker "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."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek D+ "Where the movie loses me completely is when Andie's behavior takes a turn for the psychotically infantile. I wish I could say the low point is the scene in which Andie begins making goo-goo talk to Ben's (still-trousered) male member…"   Decent Films Guide   Steven D. Greydanus 1.5/4 "Should just count ourselves lucky that the final reunion on a bridge doesn't involve Benjamin on horseback and Paul Young on the soundtrack."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw "In Donald Petrie’s How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, the setup to the inevitable is contrived to highest level that although you may want to dismiss the film, the performances by the leads are appealing enough for you to have good time enjoying this film."   BlackFilm.com   Wilson Morales 6/10 Read review   Modamag.com   Brian Orndorf 4/10 Read review   www.susangranger.com   Susan Granger Read review   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline  (1 - 39) of 39 OFCS Rating: 49% Rotten Page   1
