Good Luck Chuck

Starring: Jessica Alba and Dane Cook

Rating: 1.5

While I thought the premise for "Good Luck Chuck" would be a good one, I was not expecting what I got. "Good Luck Chuck" is the story of Charlie. Charlie was cursed as a teenager so that none of his relationships would ever be 'true love'. But, he later learned that this curse also included something else...sleep with Charlie once, and the next man you date will be your true love.

At first, this discover thrills Charlie. (Here's part of why I didn't like "Good Luck Chuck.") He goes around sleeping with everyone. And the movie shows it. Very graphically. And repeatedly.

One day, Charlie discovers that he wants to fall in love. So, when he tries to get the girl to fall for him, he needs to find a way to break the curse. He'll do anything to break it. Anything.

So, if you like watching the kind of movies that make you squeamish because of all the nudity, you might like "Good Luck Chuck". And if you like movies that portray the idea that you're only beautiful if you're thin and kind of promiscuous, then you might like "Good Luck Chuck". As for myself, I don't know why I finished it.
