I actually really enjoyed this movie!

Rating: 7/10 (20 August 2012)

Personally, I like rom coms; it's nice to be able to kick back and watch a light hearted, feel good film that doesn't involve blood and gore every once in a while. Yes, this movie is predictable and unoriginal, but it works.
I watched this movie mainly because of Kate Hudson; she's one of my favorite actors because she has such a great personality and really brings her characters to life - and she's done it again in this film.
How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days is filled with a lot of funny moments mainly due to (Hudson) and her crazy antics to accomplish her goal of getting Ben (McConaughey) to dump her. The things (that actually do drive most men crazy - and not in a good way) she does are so funny and out there; mixed with her facial expressions and energetic acting, it really makes the film memorable. The things she does, along with knowing how Ben would react - as would any man - really made me laugh out loud because it's so ridiculously funny, especially how well Hudson plays her role.
Also, an important factor, Matthew and Kate's chemistry is strong throughout and that really helps the movie tie together and stand out from it's typical plot. You know what's going to happen but, thanks to their acting and Kate's antics, it makes this film enjoyable and worth watching again.
