For the first time in a long time, I laughed so much, my stomach hurt!

Rating: 10/10 (7 February 2003)

Even though the premise has been done to death, the movie provides a refreshing look at what women do wrong in relationships. In fact, it goes one further to show us that, even though we do the wrong things sometimes, love conquers all. Kate Hudson is an exceptional actress with great comedic timing as she volleys great one liners off McConnaughey's character.

I loved this movie for what it is...an hour and fifty minutes of laughing till it hurt and crying because you can't laugh anymore. The general idea of the film: a writer, played by Hudson, has the wonderful idea to write a column about how women ruin relationships by doing things that we all do at one point or another. She says she can get a guy to dump her in ten days. At the same time, an advertising representative, played by McConnaughey, takes a bet with his fellow employees that he can get a woman to fall in love with him in ten days. The rest of the film is the two main characters doing their best to win their respective bets and ultimately failing miserably in the end, when they eventually fall in love.
Don't go expecting to see an Oscar winning film about love and relationships. Just go and have fun and laugh till it hurts!
