Honorable Mention for Best How to Movie:

 

  • My Best Friend’s Girl - The USA working title for this comedic romp is “How to Lose a Girl in Just One Date,” that pretty much covers the explanation of why this movie is so great. Reminiscent of How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, this witty flick is all about what “not” to do in a relationship.
