	DVD in My Pants - Feature: A Journey With Hitchcock - Week Nine: Murder! (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		Hitch deftly handles this movement in a manner which allows the viewer to feel as though he’s a part of the film.
		In just the third film of his career as a director of sound films, he was already making bold technical leaps and innovating with new technology in order to tell his story in the most compellingly stylistic way possible - without losing his grasp on being accessible.
		This film may be laden with the stuff of cinema, from the brilliant stage curtain-to-jail cell cut (especially apropos considering the victim and accused) to the dramatic silhouette of the rising hangman's rope to the dizzying madness of the climactic suicide, but it never fails to work as direct and easy-to-digest storytelling.

	Tail Slate - Film Review - Hitch
		Hitch is very discriminating about his clientele, and at first he believes helping Albert win Allegra is an impossible task.
		Films like Sweet Home Alabama, Ever After, and Fools Rush In all have one common truth: like Hitch, the main character is incredibly likeable.
		Hitch is set in the glossy and gleaming New York City of Sex and the City fame.

	Hitch movie review, In Film Australia
		Hitch liaises a perky journalist (Eva Mendes) who, surprise surprise, might just turn out to be his intellectual match.
		Hitch works best when the date doctor is whooshing together plans for his clients because the film relies on a degree of brains to set up these scenarios, however thankless they turn out to be in the end.
		The film drags, and when a romantic comedy as generic as this drags its formula becomes increasingly noticeable, its bare bones are exposed and the predictable trajectory of boy-meets-girl becomes a slower and more obvious experience.

		A self-described “date doctor,” Hitch makes his living helping less fortunate males learn the tools and the moves to get the women of their dreams up against Cupid’s arrow.
		Hitch isn’t so sure, but he can see right away the accountant’s intentions are so pure they’re crystal, so he’ll do all he can to make sure Albert at least gets a chance.
		Hitch basically is a well put together mess, rambling along as well as it does purely on the strength of its stars.

	Film Review — Hitch \| Funny UK Comedy
		Hitch (Smith) is an urban myth; he is ‘The Date Doctor’, an expert on the male and female condition and professes to be able to get any man to woo any woman.
		The major irony of the story is that Hitch, himself, is a single man and suffers from a series of unfortunate incidents when he starts falling for gossip columnist Sara (Mendes) whilst assisting his latest shmo-client (James) to successfully date a rich, successful socialite.
		Hitch is trying to achieve; it’s a really ‘nice’ film about really ‘nice’ people actually deriving some happiness out of life which, as I said, is a rarity for a storyline these days.

	Slant Magazine - Film Review: Hitch
		Smith's Hitch is awash in Big Willie Style, from the playful sarcasm to the suave machismo, and his customers—the most prominent of which is Albert Brennaman (Kevin James, from TV's The King of Queens), a junior accountant in love with celebrity heiress Allegra Cole (Amber Valletta)—eagerly eat up his advice.
		That Hitch radiates brazen egomania doesn't seem to perturb the desperate men and women he counsels, but director Tennant—sensing cooler-than-thou overload—wisely counteracts Smith's scene-consuming mugging with James, a roly-poly doofus whose spastic physical comedy becomes the film's amusingly awkward saving grace.
		Hitch's supposed character hitch is that, although he has all the answers for his clients, a former dumping at the hands of his college sweetheart has left him afraid to commit.

	Cinema Confidential News: 02/11/05 - REVIEW: "Hitch" (positive)
		"Hitch" is made of assembled parts from countless other movies about philandering playboys with all the right stuff, right down to the aspect that he’s a suave ladies man who thinks he knows everything about sex and dating but hasn’t met the woman of his match.
		Mendes is on the verge of superstardom, and even though I don’t think this film in particular with catapult her into the movie goddess stratosphere by the public at large, perhaps she’ll reach that pinnacle within another three or four movies, or hopefully sooner.
		Hitch is selective with his clients, so in order to maintain his style of living he would need to charge a lot of money from affluent gentleman.

	Hitch film review
		Hitch is smooth and fake in that Hollywood way, but despite being resistibly contrived, it's irresistibly enjoyable.
		Hitch, who keeps his identity secret and works by referral only, takes on his biggest challenge when he's asked by the shy, bumbling tax consultant Albert Brennaman (Kevin James) to woo the beautiful heiress Allegra Cole (Amber Valletta).
		Hitch is the greatest perpetrator as he constantly fires off from his arsenal of trite metaphors, but nearly everyone's guilty.

	Movie Review - Hitch - eFilmCritic
		Here’s what kind of movie “Hitch” is: its original title was the clever, witty “The Last First Kiss.” This title was dumped, however, for the far more generic one it uses now, perhaps because the studio thought audiences wouldn’t be able to figure out what the hell the title meant.
		“Hitch” has a charm that wins you over, even when you know exactly where the plot is headed and you know just how clichéd the characters are behaving and you know that everyone in the cast should probably be spending their time making something smarter.
		The catch of the movie is that despite his successes with others’ romances, Hitch is helpless in his own lovelife.

	CanMag- MOVIE REVIEW- Hitch Movie Review
		Hitch steps in and does the necessary research to give each man, or client, a fighting chance for the one he loves.
		Albert will be Hitch's hardest job, as Albert 'swings for the fences.' It takes a little under a third of the film to set up each of these characters and their current situations.
		Hitch lays down the ground work that Albert can only move back and forth with his 'shoulders at his sides.' Albert, while dancing with Allegra, tries to follow the 'dancing rule' but takes a few of his own risks every time Allegra turns her back to him [risks that have repercussions later].

		Also, it is the first Hitchcock film to employ the 'wronged man' motif, when the jealous Pettigrew (Bernard Goetzke), local shopkeeper and Justice of the Peace, has his rival Fearogod (Malcolm Keen) arrested and thrown into prison on a trumped-up charge of murder.
		The film is an antecedent of the equally sagacious The Trouble With Harry.
		Otherwise, the film's iconography is virtually the same as both Tennyson's and Caine's, except that it adds the recurring image of a lighthouse whose revolving beam sweeps the darkness.

	Reveal Review: Hitch
		Hitch, the new rom-com blockbuster starring Will Smith and Eva Mendes, which may not be exactly what the doctor ordered, but at least it’s a step in the right direction.
		At the film’s outset, Hitch is unleashing his strange magic on Albert (Kevin James), a nerdy, bookish accountant who is about as far from suave and sexy as it gets.
		In fact, when Hitch learns that one man desires to enlist his services simply to get inside a girl’s pants rather than to establish a meaningful relationship, he turns the guy down without hesitating.

	Amazon.com: Hitch: DVD: Andy Tennant,Will Smith,Eva Mendes,Kevin James (III),Amber Valletta,Julie Ann Emery,Robinne ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The joke, of course, is that Hitch's own love life is a mess, and as he coaches James toward romance with a rich, powerful, and seemingly inaccessible beauty named Allegra (Amber Valetta), he's trying too hard to impress a savvy gossip columnist (Eva Mendes) with whom he's fallen in love.
		Hitch the date doctor supports inept men in finding their dream partner, all the while he himself has not recovered from a traumatic college romance, so guess what, he has commitment issues.
		The fire station shown at the beginning of the film as Hitch is coaching a client is Hook and Ladder #8, the firehouse used in Ghost Busters.

	Film Blather: Hitch
		I will say only that Hitch managed to consistently make me laugh out loud at the end of what was probably the worst day of my life; perhaps I was so badly in need of a distraction that I simply took what I could get, but I did not expect anything this infectious.
		One reason, perhaps, is that Hitch has an actual screenplay, with actual characters, written for a discernible purpose.
		Perhaps that was inevitable considering that the film is essentially a fairy tale from beginning to end, and has no delusions about this.

	CBBC Newsround \| Reviews \| Film review: Hitch
		Hitch's cure is to teach these men how to win the woman of their dreams in just three dates.
		When Hitch is teaching Albert how not to dance, when they practise how to go for the first kiss and when he goes on a date with Sara and gets a food allergy - all hilarious.
		Although it was a bit cringey sometimes, I think that made the film as good as it is. I would recommend this film, and I think it is one of the best I have seen this year.

	Hitch
		An uncomfortable opening montage that dances delicately along the line between Hitch being a saint and Hitch being a pimp resolves into a film that reveals itself as essentially good-natured.
		This will lead to the expected delightful romantic misunderstandings, the public humiliations, the dramatic castrations and spayings, and the inevitable reunions in which all sides, wiser and less endowed, decide on a life of cringing domesticity in the moments after the film that promise to be more interesting than the moments within.
		The Manhattan of Hitch is a remarkably small world where seemingly every character, incidental or not, is connected to someone else in the film; it's neat--maybe too neat--and modeled pretty clearly along the lines of a fairy tale--like, say, Maid in Manhattan, In Good Company, or last week's professional-man-whore comedy The Wedding Date.

		Both of these songs have immediately recognizable guitar riffs (even to those who have never heard the songs in their entirety), although the portion of "Layla" used is the piano coda, and not the riff for which the song is best known

		Alex "Hitch" Hitchens (Smith) is a paid New York-based "date doctor" who comes to the aid of countless men looking to capture the fancy for the elusive women of their dreams.
		Hitch is as smooth as silk and he must carry over his trick of the trade to coach the hapless male clientele he services.

	Hitch - Movie Review
		What stands in for the remainder of the plot has Hitch finally coming across the woman who could make him rethink his no-tolerance policy on love –the problem being that she’s such a detestable creation it’s hard to believe he’d want to buy her a drink, let alone sweep her off her feet.
		But for some reason he’s fascinated, and after a few tidily snappy exchanges, Hitch digs deep into his bag of tricks in order to make Sara his, a campaign of wooing that seems to involve about as much planning as the Normandy landing – and looks to be about as much fun.
		To return to the main reason most people will see this film – Will Smith – he acquits himself just fine, and none of the stink of Hitch need be on him.
