A Comedy That Trys But Fails To Be Funny

Rating: 6/10 (11 February 2003)

According to a friend of mine, I was supposed to have one "belly-laugh" after another as I viewed this film. Instead, a few smiles in places is I got. Kate Hudson proves that she can act and lights up the screen. Matthew McConaughey does a crediable job of acting but is not good at comedy. The story is a stretch to believe and is totally predictable but does have a good spirit about it. You could let your young teen see this film with no reservations and she or he would probably love it. But DON'T expect to laugh a lot watching How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days.
