Critic Roger Ebert called How to Lose... "possibly the best movie that could be made about Toby Young that isn't rated NC-17." Ebert gave the film three and a half stars out of four.Roger Ebert: How to Lose Friends and Alienate People Review (October 2, 2008)
Entertainment Weekly's Lisa Schwarzbaum graded the film a "C+" in her review, which panned the "tame" adaptation of Toby Young's "much pricklier" memoir. Variety critic Todd McCarthy noted that most of the actors played "caricatures" in a "strained" story. The forced romance between Pegg's character and Kirsten Dunst's was a "turn-off" for McCarthy in particular.Entertainment Weekly: How to Lose Friends and Alienate People Review (October 1, 2008) Variety: How to Lose Friends and Alienate People Review (September 30, 2008)
