Movie Reviews of Good Luck Chuck (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Movie Review: There're better comedies and better porn than this.
Summary: 1 Stars
Synopsis: Chuck (Dane Cook) plays a thirtysomething dentist who always bungles his relationships only for his ex-lover to get married to someone else soon after they break up. He realizes that this is all due to a curse a girl placed on him as a child. His fair-weathered friend Stu (Dan Fogler) tells him to just go with it so Chuck ends up sleeping with ever woman in the area who's looking to meet her future Mr. Right (or Ms. Right as was shown with the lesbian officer.) He eventually meets penguin fanatic Cam Wexler (Jessica Alba) and the two forge a relationship. Yet because he's convinced of the curse, he smothers Cam to the point where she loses interest. He goes to the woman who put the curse on him, she lifted it, and then he and Cam... ah you know the rest already.
Yeah, the comedy parts of the movie weren't that funny, the story line was weak, and while I'm not opposed to nudity in film, it better be more than simply gratuitous unless it's specifically marketed as a porn, which is what we saw here. If I were a pre- or post-pubescent adolescent male, I'd be all about it. But I'm not, so it failed to move me.
I'd only recommend it to anyone who's internet is down and are really, really desperate...
Summary of Good Luck Chuck (Unrated Widescreen Edition)
Studio: Lions Gate Home Ent. Release Date: 09/09/2008 Run time: 101 minutes Rating: UrIn a perfect world, Good Luck Chuck would've captured the humor of Superbad and the raunch of the American Pie films. But what we're left with, instead, is a raunchy film with an anemic storyline. Cursed as a child with a hex that prevents him from finding true love, Charlie "Chuck" Logan (Dane Cook) finds that the women he dates find the men of their dreams immediately after they've dumped him. For a guy who enjoys dating beautiful women, it doesn't seem like such a horrible thing. But then he meets and falls for beautiful and klutzy Cam Wexler (Jessica Alba). Charlie wants to have a meaningful relationship with her, but how can he make her fall in love with him without losing her to some unknown man waiting to sweep her off her feet? Good Luck Chuck isn't an original movie; Cook and Alba make for an attractive couple that exudes warm chemistry. And Alba proves that while she may be famous for her body, she's quite adept at physical comedy. Dan Fogler doesn't fare as well. He has the thankless role of playing Charlie's obnoxious best friend Stu, a borderline perv plastic surgeon who proudly displays a set of Pamela Anderson's breast implants in his office (which, coincidentally enough, is located right next door to Charlie's). The dialogue is crass and the direction is all over the place. Everything is played for laughs, but little actually is very funny in this comedy. This movie actually could've used a bit more good luck. And lots more wit. --Jae-Ha Kim
