Pros: Jessica Alba, sex and nudity, good concept. Cons: Poorly executed. Sex and nudity overdone.
Movies often feel like they are targeted with a specific audience in mind. Watching Good Luck Chuck, I couldn't help but think that this movie was meant for the Animal House crowd. Not the people that enjoyed watching the film ...

Pros: a couple of jokes that were funny Cons: too many jokes that didn't work, an empty story, unfeeling characters, not entertaining
We have seen comedies like this one before, but Good Luck Chuck really takes it to the next logical (or illogical) step by twisting that storyline just a tad. The film starts with Charlie Logan (Chuck) when he is much younger, at a kids party, ...

Pros: extremely funny, Alba and Cooke Cons: some character flaws
It’s probably one of the funniest movies I’ve seen, with a somewhat perverted twist to it. Which movie am I talking about? Good Luck Chuck, of course. I went to see it last night and was amused from start to beginning. After all, Jessica Alba and Dane ...

Pros: Almost none Cons: Lame plot, generally unfunny, sluggish pacing, offensive/distasteful
I really have a problem with the way Good Luck Chuck was advertised. The trailers made it seem as if this film simply served to deliver a botched relationship between two individuals. What Good Luck Chuck honestly gives us, is a plot full ...

Pros: Um. Alba is lovely? Cons: Mean-spirited, ugly, juvenile, cruel, painfully stupid humor, gratuitous sex.
I dont often write movie reviews. Im not sure whyI watch at least one movie a night, sometimes two. I suppose I just feel that there are so many very talented movie reviewers on Epinions that my voice is rarely necessary. Someone else ...

Pros: Some very funny scenes, mature audiences only Cons: Ultra crude sexual "humor" is present for shock purposes only, which results in corny scenes
OK, another rental from Netflix, and I am half-bracing myself for another chick-flick. My wife must have been anticipating this too because she is the one who moved it to the top of our queue. This was hardly a chick-flick, it was much more of a soft ...

Pros: Funny, Cook, Fogler, Alba Cons: May make some uncomfortable with the slang and sex scenes.
Tasteless, crude slang, many unneeded sex scenes, stereotyped women, cantaloupe love ...I liked this movie! Good Luck Chuck Hexed at the age of 10, by a goth girl he rejected, Chuck (Dane Cook) is to never know love. His girlfriends will ...

by t13monkeys in Movies, - Top 500, Jan 27 '08
Pros: Jessica Alba's performance, penguins Cons: Shallow story, boring sex romp
Good Luck Chuck comes off like a romantic-chick flick but strangely enough its actually a romantic comedy targeted toward men, with large doses of topless nudity, romping sex clips and a guy-idealized story. Good Luck Chuck is barely ...

Pros: Jessica Alba, some rare funny moments Cons: Stereotypes, cliches, Dean Cook, no plot
After seeing the commercials for "Good Luck Chuck" after what felt like a million times, I thought I wanted to see it. It looked like your typical goofy romantic comedy, and I wanted to see a movie that was light and funny. Jessica Alba looked cute and ...

Pros: Well, there IS a lot of sex in the movie. Cons: Not funny, Utterly predictable, Obvious
Every time I take note of a comedy about sex, a "Beavis & Butthead" laugh and voice goes through my head with a mental "Heh, heh. . . sex." I suppose having sexual ethics is boring and passe, but it does make movies based entirely on sexual folly ...

Pros: It passes the day (if your life is that dull) Cons: Nothing new
Charlie's first encounters with the opposite sex were unusual to say the least, a game of spin the bottle left Charlie feeling like a victim of abuse; and this unrequited encounter meant that Charlie found himself the victim of a young Goth hex. ...

Pros: None Cons: Too many
I suspect that the script for Good Luck Chuck probably started out as a porno and then adapted into this feature length film after a few adjustments. It stars Dane Cook and Jessica Alba in what was probably supposed to be an entry into the ...

Pros: comedy, light-hearted, Cons: gratuitous sex, unnecessary vulgarities that add nothing
Good Luck Chuck, released by Lions Gate, starring Dane Cook and Jessica Alba was marketed as a laugh-out-loud, romantic comedy...an ideal date movie. However, it doesn't take long for the audience to realize that the movie is filled with lurid, vulgar, ...

Pros: some funny elements, interesting story idea Cons: poor script, no on-screen chemistry, plot drags, jokes fall flat
Some guys just can’t get a break…at least that’s how Charlie Logan (Dane Cook) feels as he is realizing the effects of a childhood curse. Once upon a time young Charlie participated in a game of spin the bottle, giving each person who spun five minutes ...

Pros: Silly,
Penguins,
Jessica Alba (who knew!)
Cons: Silly,
Boy humor at it's lamest,
Oftentimes gross,
What Dane Cook Does To Penguins
Finding nothing at all appealing about the commercials or trailers for this film, I was none-to-thrilled when my beloved other half presented it to me as our rental plans for the evening. The thing is, I want very much to like Dane Cook. I really do ...
