In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

The first scene of this film is at a party in 1985, where the protagonist rejects a girl. She puts a curse on him which makes everyone who has sex with him find her dream partner very soon afterwards. The rest of the film takes place in the present day. Loads of women want sex with him once, because the curse makes him a 'stepping stone' to them finding their dream lover.Chuck has an on-off relationship with Cam, who is played very well by Jessica Alba.

Good Luck Chuck contains many sex scenes with a lot of crude and gross humour at times. The film is pretty bad. Its starts off okay but then it just becomes crazy and the ridiculous stories pile up. It goes downhill when Charlie (Cook) gets untrue word from Stu (Fogler) that the hex is broken meaning that he can sleep with Cam (Alba) and she wont leave him. he then becomes a huge stalker and the film turns hard into a cheesy romantic film. The film really is only worth seeing for Jessica Alba and a few scenes of topless females. In general the film just isn't funny.The story arc, which is really more of a story dot, doesn't even make sense. Why would any guy with an IQ greater than his inseam believe in a dumb curse? Since the consequences of striking out with the girl are the same as the consequences of not trying, why would Charlie spend a long section of the movie avoiding her (towards the middle to end)? And the cure for the curse turns out to have nothing to do with anything we've seen in the movie. Overall the film isn't funny and really not meant for everyone. I blame the marketing and trailers, completely misleading

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

This was really funny stuff! While I had pretty high expectations of this movie going in (I knew it was based on the Benjamin Kollenbroich story), I was pretty happy with it. Dane Cook did a good job of capturing the obscure humor of the real-life character. There were parts that had me reaching for the remote, but I waited it out. Cook came across as generally likable. I'm not a very big Dane Cook fan, but a friend of mine suggested this movie and I thank him for it. Of course, Jessica Alba was gorgeous and funny, as well! She never ceases to amaze me. I would recommend this movie to anyone looking for a fun movie that nobody would take too seriously. If you're looking for a serious thriller, this movie is not for you!
