    ...or how to lose the will to live in ten minutes!
    A horrible clichéd romance film about two very 2 dimensional and quite hateful beautiful people who fall in love unconvincingly! Calling it a chick flick is an insult to women! Stick knives in your eyes before watching!

    A decent comedy as a girl tries to prove any girl can get a guy to ditch her, while the guy is out to prove he can get anyone to fall in love with him in 10 days. A few funny moments about the do's and don'ts of dating.

    It was alright.

    Andie and Benjamin start to date each other with alternative agendas for their work. Funny rom com. Great cast. My fave scene is coming out of the Celine Dion concert, Matthew's face is a picture!

Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

When a chick flick goes wrong -- and this one hits a dead end in hell -- it's a wipeout. full review

February 7, 2003
Claudia Puig, USA Today

Too light on laughs and too heavy on predictable moments. full review

February 7, 2003
Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

I am just about ready to write off movies in which people make bets about whether they will, or will not, fall in love. full review

February 7, 2003
David Edelstein, Slate

The picture is entertaining, and it will probably be a big hit, but it's an opportunity wasted. full review

February 6, 2003
Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com

The movie would have been so much better if it had jumped into its mean-spiritedness with gusto and passion, instead of just splashing around in it halfheartedly. full review

February 6, 2003
A.O. Scott, The New York Times

If the movie provides no new insight into the contrasting behavior of men and women or the perils of postmodern urban dating, falling well shy of the not-too-high standard set by 'Sex and the City' on... full review

    This is the scariest movie I ever watched. I put this in the horror section of my personal colection because my now ex-girlfriend acted just like the lead girl of this movie in fact if I altered the story line as little as
    15-20 percent I could make a documentary of my 18 month relationship with my exgirlfriend.
