Good Luck Chuck (2007)

Memorable, crazy movie

A waste of 90 minutes of my life

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

"Good Luck Chuck" is a 2007 independent film currently available on NetFlix Instant Download Streaming. It is billed as a comedy, but it should be "Juvenile Comedy". It is directed by Mark Helfrich. The screenplay is by Josh Stolberg, and the (short story) is by Steve Glenn. The cast includes Connor Price, Troy Gentile, Mackenzie Mowat, Sasha Piererse, Caroline Ford, Dane Cook, Chelan Simmons, Dan Fopgler, Natalie Morris, Ella English, Tseng Chang, Michael Teigen, Chlara Zanni, Benjamin Ayres, Carrie Fleming, Agam Darshi, Jessica Alba, Crystal Lowe, Steve Glenn, Tea Helfrich, Yasmine Vox, Lonny Ross and Tava Smiley. The story is a simple one about a young dentist who swoons more women than is humanly possible. I was not impressed and gave it only 2 stars. Dale Haufrect

Charlie Logan (Dane Cook) has been hexed by a disgruntled girl since a childhood game of spin the bottle gone wrong. He is now a womanizing dentist. His best friend Stu (Dan Fogler) since childhood is now the plastic surgeon next door. Charlie gets a reputation as a good luck charm. Every woman he sleeps with finds their dream beau immediately after splitting up. He is enchanted by bumbling Cam Wexler (Jessica Alba). Cam is leery of Charlie's womanizing reputation, and Charlie doesn't want Cam to find her dream man.There is something about Dane Cook that annoys me to no end. It's some kind of annoying smugness in his persona. At least, Dan Fogler is outdoing him on that front in this movie. Cook isn't that bad in this movie. And there is the adorable Jessica Alba. However it's still not a good comedy.

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.

The first 20-30 mins of the movie is really good, i had a very good laugh and it made me feel that the rest of the movie is going to blow my mind but it did not happen the rest of the movie just collapsed and fell apart. In this movie the hero "charlie" falls in love with the heroine "cam" and when things start to go well between them he starts to fear that he might lose her because of the so called "lucky charm" factor and he does lose her and the movie does not end there as towards the end of the movie charlie wins her back and this part of the movie really amused me because he just did it so easily, it was as if charlie misplaced his wallet and after searching his house for some time he has finally found it and i also found the reason behind cam leaving charlie very stupid because if cam was really in love with charlie she would have understood the situation which charlie is in and as a girl friend she would have helped charlie out of his situation, but instead of doing that she decides to stay away from charlie, she doesn't even make an effort to help charlie out of his situation and i don't call this true love, the relationship between charlie and cam is much inferior to love.
