The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

So this movie is pretty good. I mean the story is pretty clever, hard to come up with, I mean it really makes you think. Speaking of thinking... I think Dane Cook did a pretty good job with this film... my only issue is I truly think that Adam Sandler would have been a better actor and more believable lead character. I mean Adam Sandler is so funny and truly a ladies man. That guy can do it all.... other than that, the movie is good but it would have been GREAT! had Adam Sandler been the lead actor.

You know when you look back on films like Good Luck Chuck you got to ask yourself what were they thinking?And that's exactly how I feel about this film.While there some scenes that make the film watchable Good Luck Chuck is more or less a Motion Picture Adult film.It's feels like watching an porn film when you watch this film that really just don't make any sense but when you cast Dane Cook as the protagonist and Jessica Alba as the love interest. I did enjoy the comedy bits of Jessica and Dane had a few decent moments.But this "Comedy" more or less tries too hard at being funny and it just can't work like that you can't force people to laugh at what's not funny and this movie has a good bit of none funny and gross comedy I can't stand at allIt's just nothing special or highly original about this film to make it one you must rush out to get and add to your collection Again it just feels like a porn comedy and that's really saidIt only has a handful of moments that makes it watchable but other than that it just weak. The plot is something we have seen many times before the acting I can't even say was good or bad it just plain at bestJust only watch it if you're curious other than it's not worth a lotI give Good Luck Chuck an 5 out of 10

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

MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS This is one of the "could have been great rom-com" movies.The premise is really funny,of a guy who is "cursed" at childhood by a little girl he rejects,to never be able to find true love,because all the women he will meet in his life,will find true love with the next guy they date after him.This not only creates serious problems to his love life,but also,once women get to believe that about him,they go crazy looking to take advantage,so they can find the love of their own lives after dating him. The stars are likable,Dane Cook is convincing enough as a playboy women find attractive,Alba is not really good at comedy,but here the part demands of her not so much to be funny,but to be more of a girl who inspires real passion,which is down her path. So ,all the ingredients were there,if only the script knew how to develop this.Unfortunately,the script drowns into needless extreme profanity and then goes into an unfortunate excursion into soft porn.They could have easily shown the same story without all the needless nudity.The nudity,sex scenes and extreme profanity just destroyed this movie. The situation the lead character finds himself is funny enough,showing women chasing him was enough,without having to show the sex. All the sex could have just easily been hinted at.Just showing the character going out with women,or just being exhausted the next day,is enough for the audience to get it without having to show the action in his bedroom.I guess they just didn't believe in their own story and thought they needed these scenes.Bad mistake.The other bad mistake is how they wrote the character of his friend,whose profanity is overdone to a ridiculous degree. To a lesser degree i didn't like the accident prone character of Alba,i didn't get it why that was necessary,and the point when Cook's character goes berserk was really out of place.So,all in all,too may things went wrong in this movie.Its really a shame because one gets a feeling that with a few but serious script changes this had the makings of a classic romantic comedy.
