See it and laugh yourself into a stomach cramp
Review date: 2008-02-06 Rating: 6 out of 10
"Good Luck Chuck" is one of those movies where you don't really know whether to admit that laughed your way to stomach cramps through the entire film or that the movie was a bit over the top.
"Good Luck Chuck" is about Chuck/Charlie, who is a dentist (why doesn't my dentist look like that?) and quite the good luck charm. After a woman's been with Charlie, the next man she dates will be a keeper. And of course the hexed Charlie falls in love. Okay, so far it sounds like a chick flick that will make every guy yawn, but first of all Jessica Alba plays the love interest/penguin-obsessed catastrophe waiting to happen and the comedy.... "Good Luck Chuck" is full of one-liners, physical comedy, slap stick, and at times so bad humour that you will jump out of your seat doing the secret you-got-it-dance.
Enjoy!!

PS. I am sure that this movie could even make penguin-fetish more acceptable to the general public.

A quirky and thowaway yet strangely good film
Review date: 2007-12-26 Rating: 8 out of 10
This is a good Rom Com masquerading as a very bad one. It's very crude, often goes for cheap laughs and has alot of sloppy dialogue yet it has more heart, philosophy and wit in it than at first meets the eye. That is part of its charm. At first one thinks, this film is awful. It has a throwaway, flippant quality to it that is almost like a porn film. If you stick with it, you may find yourself pleasantly surprised. It's sort of like Knocked Up or the 40 year old Virgin in that respect, but it's made by a different team.

While I was waiting to enter the Cinema, the previous showing was ending and people leaving looked completely bored. They must have had a sense of humour as stiff as wood. This film is non stop laughs from beginning to end (and that includes the credits!!). Jessica Alba plays the role as the ditsy accident prone blonde to perfection.
A tip...
The laughs come so quick and often you'll be choking on each piece of popcorn!!!
