A trial.

Rating: 4/10 (26 June 2006)

This is a movie that I saw because it was my girlfriends choice of DVD that night and I had previously made her watch Predator. I considered this her revenge attack.
I disliked it because;
I found it really slow to watch.
The plot is just really really stupid. Kate Hudson works for some woman magazine and she notices some of her friends are unlucky with men, so she comes up with this idea for an article called How To Lose a Guy in Ten Days. This involves her finding some Guinea pig (McMonaughey), start dating him then try to see how quickly she can put him off. And her editor approves it.
The characters are totally unrealistic. For example, Kate Hudson, while pretty hot, is annoying as hell (on purpose- see above comment on plot).
It's not Shakespeare so the acting doesn't really come into it.
I laughed out loud at a couple of scenes- but it was mainly at how predictable it is. My girlfriend kept throwing me questioning looks so I had to stifle my laughter on occasion.
In conclusion guys, try to avoid this if you can. Girls will probably like it. I'll stick to Predator thanks.
