Lame movie
Added 9/29/2009
The problem with this movie and, I think, other Dane Cook movies, is that the character he plays are absolutely unsympathetic and without redeeming moral quality. Even after he "learns" his lesson or does whatever it is he does that makes it possible for him to get the girl, he is still not a likeable character. There is a limit to how much an audience can relate to someone who acts poorly all the time. Moreover, this a one joke movie.
Movies this bad only reinforce that even vulgar comedies, which can be quite funny, live or die by their writing. A poor script makes for a poor movie, even if it does have Jessica Alba in it.

Good Funny Pick
Added 9/23/2009
Good Luck Chuck is a good romantic comedy (I know, it was hard for me to believe) movie. Jessica Alba is sooooo HOT! and Dane Cook does a good job acting in this movie. Good Luck Chuck is about a man and the myth that if he sleeps with someone, the next person they meet is their true love. It has some really funny scenes between Chuck and his best friend who is a complete pervert. This is a good movie it is funny, well written, and clever.

Should be called, "Dane Cook makes a porno"
Added 9/13/2009
This movie was not funny, was not interesting and had too much gratuitous sex. I won't even honor this movie by calling it a chick flick as it was awful.

Good Ol' Raunchy Movie
Added 11/2/2009
If you like Dane Cook, you will like this movie. It won't win any awards, the plot isn't all that great, but we really enjoyed the film.
This movie is very raunchy so it's probably best to watch with some drinking buddies, not with your family.
MILD SPOILERS WARNING
The only thing I didn't like was how it ended. I just don't buy that anyone would do all the stuff Dane's character did at the wedding. It doesn't spoil the movie, however.

Would never subject myself to it again
Added 10/9/2009
But I actually did laugh out loud several times. Dane Cook was only a name to this over-50 viewer; I have not seen (and won't seek, I don't think) his other starring vehicles. Kate Hudson seemed fairly blah to me, though based on what I cannot say; this certainly did not alter that perception. And as maybe the only adult who has not endured any of the American Pie franchise, Jason Biggs was also new to me.....so, no preconceptions, no expectations.
Well, I think you can get an accurate perception from the many reviews here. If you enjoy people saying outlandish things, especially to old women and kids, using profane language, and generally behaving as offensive and selfish jerks (the opposite kind of heartless jerk as The Wedding Crashers--over the top sludge instead of over the top loveydovey) then this is your kind of movie. If you expect something other than endless fish-very-out-of-water foul language, then, with a couple of surprising glimmers of humor, you will be bored. Not offended.... while Hollywood likes to "push the envelope" by trying to offend, the result of bad boys saying bad words is just "bleeh". In fact, the supposedly Christian-offending pizza place was, by far, the most clever thing in the whole film, though, yet again, Hollywood's understanding of Christianity is as comprehensive and accurate as it would be if they wrote their scripts after glancing at an excerpt from a magazine article paraphrasing an anthropological text that mentions some remote and unvisited tribe called "Christians".
And since I have been married for a long time I sure don't know, but if this is how the single/dating world lives, I am most grateful to be far removed from it. What a universe of coarse brutality (Alec Baldwin, yeech!) and callow hollowness.

Really funny flick
Added 9/22/2009
Dane Cook takes strutting and cockiness to a new level in this one. This is a somewhat creepy movie with some really uncomfortable scenes. The part Alec Baldwin plays is totally out of character, and so funny he steals the show. A great cast and endless funny one-liners and blowout scenes make it worth watching.
