A West Virginia grocery clerk named Rosalee (Kate Bosworth, Blue Crush) wins, much to the dismay of her friend Pete (Topher Grace, Traffic), who's secretly in love with her. A summary of the romantic triangle that follows won't capture the charm of Win a Date with Tad Hamilton!. Though formulaic in structure, the movie is constantly surprising and engaging in its details. All romantic comedies should have such a smart script, understated but spot-on acting (Grace, Bosworth, and Duhamel are delightful and given excellent comic support from Nathan Lane, Sean Hayes, Ginnifer Goodwin, and Gary Cole), and clean, clear direction (from the director of Legally Blonde, another formulaic but irrepressibly fun movie). --Bret Fetzer

    Wow, I did actually see this. Topher Grace was good but the rest of the movie left much to be desired. It was par if anything.

    Pretty limp, even as romantic comedies go. The actors do what they can, but there just aren't enough genuine moments in the movie to justify everything else, which just feels so... gimmicky. A great concept for a rom-com that just totally floundered.

    All the "comedy" falls flat. The film tries to be better than a romantic/comedy but in the end it's just the same garbage.

    A lot better than I thought, no sex, some language, lots of kissing, recommended for those who like chick flicks

    Missed a couple of parts, but from what I saw, a great movie. However, she should have ended up with Tad Hamilton!

    I really enjoy Win A Date With Tad Hamilton! despite its flaws, firstly Tad is an out and out cad at the start then we are to beleive he changes just like that, wellignore this and you will enjoy it with Ease. Topher Grace's role is both annoying and comedic but really he's just a longing guy. Follows the rules closely but enjoyable and Good performances all round.

    I like the idea of the story but it didn't translate well into a movie. I don't know if it was the characters or the writing. Too bad.

    Teen girl flic I liked the work done by Grace and the team.
    Not quite the same guy Tad was at the beginning but if we forget that lack of continuity it's an okay flic.

    An okay flick that has a decent plot, a cute romance and a few laughs. Ginnifer Goodwin's character is a riot.

    A prertty good romcom that's aimed at teenagers. The 3 leads are great and it is one of those movies where you're really not sure how it will end or what the correct ending should be. It has some good one liners as well.

    Tad has a nice six. He's so HOT with the towel wrap. Pretty cute ending! Topher Grace deserves Kate Bosworth.
