Bad 'Luck'
By Jeffrey M. Anderson Conspicuously absent from this romantic comedy are any genuine laughs or romance. The unfunny, uninteresting Charlie (Dane Cook) has been hexed: every girl he sleeps with is destined to next meet her true love. When he falls in love with Cam Wexler (Jessica Alba), he tries to break the spell. The makers of this shameful waste of celluloid have padded their work with fat jokes, homophobic jokes, gratuitous nudity and various bodily functions, while harboring a fundamental hatred for women. Moreover, the filmmakers made Alba's character a caretaker of penguins at the aquarium, in a sleazy, desperate attempt to cash in on the recent "penguin fever" garnered by March of the Penguins and Happy Feet. Dan Fogler co-stars as the typical "vulgar best friend." AskMen.com: Good Luck Chuck
