    The hottest and freshest red box review this side of Kate Hudson's asshole....it'ssssssssss......MY BEST FRIEND'S GIRL.

    Dane Cook stars as an asshole. In this movie, he actually acts...sweet.

    Jason Biggs creeps the shit out of me with how fucking weird he is.

    Good thing is, t...( read more)he BREASTLESS Kate Hudson doesn't fall for him like in 98% of Hollywood's SHIT for brains cinema. Her sultry clam wants Dane Cook's bangin chowder to come together to make sweet, sweet soup.

    Alec Baldwin fucks cougars.

    Religious bitches go to Catholic pizza parlors.

    Decent movie, some laughs here and there. BOOM SHA KA LA KA BIATCHES

    OMG, this was vulgar, disgusting, crude, rude, explicit and just plain old...funny!!! Dane Cook is one of the most horrible actors ever, but he was funny as hell in this. What a perfect role for him. Dates from hell is an understatement for this. Wow, what a crazy crazy ride. But...( read more) they made me laugh, so that's a plus. One word: wow!

    A rude, crude romantic comedy with a touch of nastiness that's refreshing and quite funny.

    I am a fan of Kate Hudson. I think she is smart and funny, so I was excited to see this movie. I loved her as Alexis. She was great as always!
    Jason Biggs plays the same character that we have seen him play a million times before but at least we know he can play that type of guy...( read more) convincingly. It tends to get a little old, but the other actors pulled it out for him in this one.
    I have had a little crush on Dane Cook for a long time. He was nothing short of brilliant and biting as the guy who is every girls worst nightmare! He was so funny at times, I thought I just may pee my pants! I also really liked Alex Baldwin in this. He is so funny In 30 Rock and was great as the skirt chasing old hound in this film.
    My Best Friend's Girl is a great make you laugh movie.

    Kinda disappointing! I love Kate Hudson, and Dane Cook is normally hilarious, but this movie was just blah. I didn't laugh as much as I thought I would, and it kinda dragged.

    It proves that love always comes in a very very unpredictable way..

    Really funny =D

    Very underated comedy flick. Not the worst film of the year though as people say just kind of lame. Plot seemed easy to understand say predictable and some parts were not that funny, silly really. Dane Cook wasn't an interesting character throughout as for Biggs never changes his...( read more) character always a loser. Also didn't quite understand some of the dialouge and forgetable.

Pete Hammond, Hollywood.com

Yet another in a continuing line of dismal Dane Cook so-called romantic comedies. full review

Claudia Puig, USA Today

It borrows from much funnier movies such as Hitch, Wedding Crashers and My Best Friend's Wedding. Never has a romantic comedy seemed less romantic or less comedic. full review

    I can't believe that the director of this movie directed classics like pretty in pink and some kind of wonderful. Have you ever noticed that some not many of his movie titles are names of famous songs pretty in pink, some kind of wonderful, and my best friends girl.
