Good Luck Chuck
Good Luck Chuck is about a man (”Chuck” obviously) who can’t find true love. Every woman he goes out with always seems to end up marrying the next guy. Poor Chuck is, errr, always the best man and, errr, never the groom.
Anyway, soon word gets round that he’s a bit of a “lucky charm” and it’s not long until women are queuing up to sleep with him, thinking that they too will shortly meet the man of their dreams.
Unfortunately for Chuck, all these hoards of women throwing themselves at him just don’t seem to make him happy, as Chuck knows he’s just being used for endless, long nights of meaningless sex. Poor fella.
Now for some reason that I can’t quite put my finger on, this story all sounds a bit too familiar.
You see, I’m sure I know someone just like Chuck. Someone who also appears to be a sort of “lucky charm” that has this amazing ability to speak to a woman and within days she’s moving away to some far flung place, like Tajikistan or Slough with the man of her dreams.
However, for the life of me, I just can’t put my finger on who I could possibly be thinking of. And no, it certainly ain’t me, because I’m just waaaay too smooth for that to happen.
Anyway, Good Luck Chuck isn’t a great film, but hey - it’s got Jessica Alba in it, so it was never going to be totally terrible. Plus it’s got more than a few jubblies in it, which always scores points with me.
6/10.
…and on a totally unrelated note, huge congrats to Paul & Connie on their upcoming “Small Paul”. As Cilla would say, good luck Chucks!

Ahhh yes……Good Luck Chuck - not a bad film, but not terribly great either!! Either way plenty of boobies to gawp at so can’t be bad… ;-)
You’ve got me wondering who you know that fits Chuck’s description??!!
Cheers for the message of congrats - good to see you’ve got a picture that catches my best side!!

Haha, love the way they keep replaying the same clip in that vid.
Looks a bit like our Jessica’s waving a bogey in that picture actually.

I wouldn’t mind so much if I actually got a shag out of it now and then.
Either way the film was pretty poor to be honest and if not for the totty on screen, and sitting in front of us, it would have been seriously naff. It is really hard to feel sorry for someone who is cursed to get loads of uncomplicated sex from loads of hot woman. For some strange reason that just doesn’t tug on the old hearth strings.

Dude, that was your chance to start the rumours flyin’!
The end credits were weirdly funny though.
