A Very Funny Romantic Comedy

Rating: 7/10 (7 December 2003)

Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson) writes a column in a female magazine about shallow subjects. She indeed was a great student of journalism and wants to have a chance of writing serious matters about politics, environment and economics. Her editor promises her that if she writes a successful article about how to lose a guy in ten days, she would write about whatever she wants. Ben Barry (Matthew McConaughey) is an advertising executive who wants to get the account of a huge diamond company, but two other colleagues (and beautiful) women are disputing this account with him. He offers a bet to his chief and two colleagues competitors: he would conquest any woman and after ten days, she would fall in love and go with him to the initial campaign party for the client. The two girls had been introduced to Andie a few moments ago and knew about her article, so they suggest Andie to Ben. Ben accepts and dates with Andie. From this moment on, there are many funny situations with them. Andie does anything possible and impossible to imagine to make Ben give-up on her. And Ben supports all those evil and humiliates situations, because he needs the presence of Andie in the party with him. Obviously, the rest of the plot is very predictable, and Andie and Ben fall in love for each other. The screenplay of this movie is really funny and this movie is a good entertainment. My vote is seven.
