Really Surprised!

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

A Brilliant Conflict

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

So this movie is pretty good. I mean the story is pretty clever, hard to come up with, I mean it really makes you think. Speaking of thinking... I think Dane Cook did a pretty good job with this film... my only issue is I truly think that Adam Sandler would have been a better actor and more believable lead character. I mean Adam Sandler is so funny and truly a ladies man. That guy can do it all.... other than that, the movie is good but it would have been GREAT! had Adam Sandler been the lead actor.

Good Luck Chuck (2007): Dir: Mark Helfrich / Cast: Dane Cook, Jessica Alba, Dan Fogler, Annie Wood, Chelan Simmons: Vulgar comedy about pursuing relationships for sheer thrill. Chuck is hexed by a goth chick at a birthday party when he was young and as a result every woman who sleeps with him finds love with the next guy. This leads to numerous offers until he meets an accident prone penguin expect whom he falls for. Fine setup nearly destroyed by predictable story telling and insincerity. Director Mark Helfrich does his best but the material despite potential, just isn't as funny as it should be. Dane Cook does a fine job as Chuck who ends up warding off Alba in hopes of keeping her while also becoming a test object for the gratification of others. Jessica Alba is miscast and the accident prone aspect seems to disappear. Eventually Cook's pursuit becomes creepy as oppose to funny leaving an ending that lacks sincerity. Dan Fogler has his moments as Cook's perverted best friend but the role is standard and typical at best. Annie Wood is also featured among supporting cast, as well as Chelan Simmons playing an ex- girlfriend of Chuck's who ought to have her head examined. The film seems poised as a bad sexual escapade that might have sounded great as a pitch idea. Otherwise viewers are wished good luck in watching it and urged to chuck it. Score: 4 ½ / 10

It's a pretty enjoyable movie. But calling it a comedy is too much. Of course there were many funny parts, most of them were however from Jessica Alba's character's brother. There was way too much nudity to a movie of this kind. A little bit unnecessary and sad, because none of it was between Dane Cook and Jessica Alba, who were the main characters. It was a normal "comedy romance", where we know from the beginning how it will end, but still pretty nice. I find the cast OK, it's only not bad because I like Jessica Alba's performance in almost every movie. Her character is also very interesting because it combines a pretty girl with a very clumsy one.

I don't understand why many people found this not to be entertaining. From what my friends were telling, I thought it was gonna be a horrible movie with dumb jokes - well, it has some dumb jokes. Except for Dane Cook really not looking good, this film had plenty of hilarious moments. I rented this yesterday and I laughed through it. Though for an R-rated comedy it did fall short of expectations, you should give it a try.When Charlie Logan/Chuck was a 10 year old kid, an emo girl had cursed him for not making out with her. All his life the girls he dated, after breaking up immediately got married to the next guy. In order to keep the woman of his dreams, Cam (Jessica Alba) from falling for another guy, Charlie Logan has to break the curse that has made him wildly popular with single women: Sleep with Charlie once, and the next man you meet will be your true love. His only friend, a breast surgeon, Stu (Dan Fogler) tries to help him in his endeavour.Although it is R-rated, it is still a romantic comedy and all of us know how it will end. Cam is a penguin lover and works at the zoo taking care of penguins. She is also very likely to fall while walking, or hit her head into something and generally unlucky. Jessica Alba tries her best to portray this goofy girl, but it seemed incredibly fake to me. But, she was very sexy. Dane Cook really looked bad in some scenes, but he was funny. Stu is the worst friend anybody could have. Breast surgery is his job, still why did he have to be such a pervert and disgusting guy? And the scene in the park where he throws frisbees at all the passerbys is boring. Its not funny to hit people in the face with a frisbee. The film makes fun of itself and every other romantic comedy film and that is a good thing. The mandatory run to the airport and proposal is also there. Still, worthwhile to watch it once. Just don't expect much.5/10
