Each of these movies are reviewed from a gay perspective, giving them
both an overall star rating plus our exclusive gay rating. The more stars out of a possible 10, the
better the film; similarly the more pink triangles, the greater the gay interest. A full list of

How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days
Movie Rating:
Hilarious |
|
Inspired by a co-worker's bad luck with men, how-to columnist Andie (Kate Hudson)
decides to write an article on common relationship-ending mistakes women make.
As research, she seduces Benjamin (Matthew McConaughey), then uses a slew of off-putting
tactics to try to get him to dump her within 10 days.

Trouble is, Benjamin's out to prove to his colleagues that he can make a woman
fall in love with him in the same amount of time.
Unintentionally - and hilariously - thwarting each other's efforts at every turn,
the two somehow manage to fall in love. Buoyed by breezy, heartfelt performances and
tremendous onscreen chemistry between Hudson and McConaughey, this film is a
terrific example of how to make people laugh.
