Plot Summary
"Two New Yorkers fight the battle of the sexes to a standstill (without entirely realizing it) in this [|romantic]. Andie ([|Kate Hudson]) is a young journalist who longs to cover political stories, but in the meantime she finds herself writing for a women's magazine called //Composure//, where her editor Lana Jong ([|Bebe Neuwirth]) has her writing a fluffy advice column. After hearing of the latest dating laments of her relationship-challenged friend Michelle ([|Kathryn Hahn]), Andie sells Lana on the idea of writing a piece on the things women do to alienate the men they love, which she'll demonstrate by winning and then driving away a man in a mere ten days. Meanwhile, Ben ([|Matthew]) is an advertising man who wants to land a prestige diamond account at his firm. Ben is competing with his pals, Spears ([|Michael Michele]) and Green ([|Shalom Harlow]), for the assignment, so Ben tells his boss Phillip Warren ([|Robert Klein]) that he's the man for the job because he understands the fair sex so well he can make any woman fall for him in less than two weeks. As fate would have it, Andie and Ben end up choosing one another for their mutual assignments, with neither knowing about each other's secret agenda as Ben strives to hold on to Andie while she does everything in her power to annoy him."

Movie Review
"Kate Hudson, with her sunburst glow, has the slightly dazed loveliness of an actress who can warm up the gawkiest of scenes. At times, she reminds you of her mother, Goldie Hawn, except without the cuddly narcissism; she's a Hawn who knows just when to stop holding her smile. That's a good thing, too, since **How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days** looks virtually designed to be a guilty pleasure, the sort of bad-romantic-comedy-of-the-week that can make you ticklish with embarrassment simply to describe it. Eager to succeed in the kitty-clawed, makeover-crazed world of women's magazines, Andie (Hudson), a tender yet ambitious how-to columnist, brainstorms an idea that is just sassy enough to get her editor's juices flowing. She'll find some poor sucker to date, behave so obnoxiously that he dumps her within 10 days, and then write a cover story for Composure magazine that's a cautionary catalog of all the things that modern women do to drive men away. At a bar, Andie meets Ben (Matthew McConaughey), an advertising executive who thinks he's God's gift, and she loses no time turning herself into the clingiest of moonstruck girlfriends."
