Not-too-special Romantic Flick

Rating: Null/10 (14 June 2006)

HOW TO LOSE A GUY IN 10 DAYS *** Attractive stars slightly make this otherwise not-too-special romantic flick watchable, with Kate Hudson and Matthew McConaughey getting into a relationship beholding secrets. She's a newspaper columnist building up her career, who's current project is getting and losing a guy in 10 days to write about what not to do in a relationship (but wouldn't she already have known what NOT to do without going about tormenting her beau proving her point?). He's an advertising executive who secretly bets he can make her fall in love with him in 10 days. Alas, they both fumble their plans up...So what are they to do? Sort of shows us what Will Smith teaches to characters in the later-released 'Hitch', only this is not as snappy or enjoyable.
