The premise of How To Lose A Guy In 10 Days is simple. Andie Anderson (Kate Hudson), a writer, sets out to write a story (based upon a history of actions taken by one of her closes friends) about the things women do to drive men they date away. She sets out to meet and date a man that she can send running in the other direction within 10 days. At the same time Ben Barry (Matthew McConaughey), a womanizing advertising exec, is promised the opportunity to pitch a big campaign if he can make a woman fall in love with him within 10 days. Two female execs from his firm push him into dating the writer.
Once the pair starts dating hilarity ensues. I watched this comedy with RB and we both enjoyed it very much. I was young, single and silly once but never left 19 messages on a person’s answering machine in one day! Andie’s antics are funny and at times, extreme. There were a couple of points where I actually felt badly for Ben, even though I knew he wasn’t being honest about the relationship either.
