This was a different film; the plot suggests that it is an adult film, yet the cast and comic violence (which were the only funny parts, and if don't like comic violence, don't rent this movie)suggest that it was a comedy. I'm confused. Is this porn or a comedy? If the creators meant it to be a comedy they missed the mark by a long shot, and if they meant for it to be an R-rated prono, they hit the bullseye.

What Parents Need to Know
About Good Luck Chuck
Parents need to know that since this movie imitates the raunchy comedy style of The Wedding Crashers and Judd Apatow movies, it might appeal to older teens who are fans of "hard R" comedies. But this one doesn't have its predecessors' charm, and even though "only" one character smokes pot, nudity and sex (both as a subject of conversation and the act itself) are ubiquitous, and in some cases downright disgusting. Women are discussed as if they were walking genitalia, obese women are the target of ridicule, and even 10-year-olds are depicted as sex fiends who want to actually "do it" during a game of "7 Minutes in Heaven." Plus, the idea that women are so desperate to get married that they'd sleep with a stranger is demeaning and sexist.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the "raunchy comedy" trend. Why are sex- and swearing-filled movies so popular? Is this movie as successful as its hard-R predecessors, or does it fall flat? Why? Parents, ask your kids what parts of the movie they found offensive. Why was that the case? Did any of it seem romantic? Why or why not? Families can also discuss whether the movie's central joke is sexist or funny. Do you think women would really line up to sleep with a stranger just so they can get married to the next man they meet?

Perfecto for.....
A very good movie. I did see it with my parent so that's ok. If you are 14 and under, you should see it with your parent(s). Other than that, VERY GOOD MOVIE! But I say you should be AT LEAST 9 years old to see it. If you are under than 9, DON'T GIVE IT A CHANCE! NOT EVEN WITH YOUR PARENTS!!!! Just close your eyes if your watching it and your under 14. :) That's what I did!! Hope this helps!!

So Funny, Yet So Filthy... The Definition of a Guilty Pleasure
Okay, let's face it: This movie is funny. What we also should face is that this movie is uncomfortably inappropriate. But, that's the magic of comedian Dane Cook's humor. This film used two things to promote itself: the glamerous beauty of Jessica Alba and the charismatic humor of Dane Cook. That's just the beginning. The film is above sex romp. It's basically almost a comedy porno with heart, making "American Pie" look tame. Things to look out for: Sex... oh, let's just sum it up to a few scenes. The first scene shows 10-year-olds playing seven minutes in heaven. The next notable scene is Charlie having sex with many, many women in a musical montage of sexual acts, sex positions, orgasms, moaning, and gratiutious graphic nudity. Other than those two disturbances, the film is riddled with sexual jokes, sexual comments, sexual discussions, boobs popping out at random, masturbation jokes, a scene where a guy is caught in the act of masturbating, oral sex on a stuffed penguin, a woman with three breasts, and the implication that Jessica Alba's character is using a vibrator off-screen. Violence, just typical slap-stick humor. Language: 74 uses of the "F" word, 33 sexual references, 24 uses of sexual slang, and other mild offenses such as name-calling and mild profanity. Bottom line: This is nothing but adult humor. Not for kids at all. Ages 17+ only. There is a LOT of sexual humor and nudity, but it is all for jokes, yet admittedly inappropriate by all means. 4/5 stars. Enjoy.

Pretty much just a big porno...
I admit, some parts were kinda funny, but otherwise, the whole movie sucked big time (all because of the sex scenes and bad acting)!! There was like 20 shots of Dane Cook having sex with women, and lots of breasts. It was funny because me and my friend were bored at a sleepover, and there was nothing else to watch (her parents didn't exactly know we watched it). We ended up being scarred for life, which was kinda hysterical... I don't reccomend you watch this movie. Ew.

Awesome movie with a great message
The film is only R-rated for two reasons. One, the opening scene that contains Chuck as a 10-year-old boy and a 10-year-old girl in a closet playing 7 minutes of Heaven in an adult fassion. Two, there is a 2 or 3 minute musical montage scene of Chuck having rough and stylish sex with dozens of women in dozens of forms. Other than those two scenes, the movie is fine and contains a great message. That message is that once you find that special someone, do not take advantage of them.

Lots of sex, montages of sex scenes, more sex and then sex!
Well, I had no expectations for this movie. I like Jessica Alba and Dane Cook, though raunchy is funny to me. The movie was entertaining but ONLY for adults. I would not let a child see it under any circumstance. LOTS and LOTS and LOTS and LOTS of sex. I literally don't think---even in a PORN movie--that I have seen THAT many naked women! There were so many scenes of naked women and Dane Cook having sex with him (I think he was naked, too, come to think of it, so at least it was fair!)...first there was one scene and then it split like a cell dividing--into 2 then 4 then 8 then the whole entire HUGE movie scene was this montage of sex of different women with Dane Cook. That's literally all the movie was. This must have been the happiest most fun movie the guy will EVER make. It wouldn't surprise me if her WROTE it just to get naked with a million women. I was entertained...it was funny, but no plot WHATsoever other than lots of sex. And that's really all there is to say about it. Oh...one of my 3 kids--a 10 year old daughter---does NOT play spin the bottle or even KNOW what it is and IF she were to find out now--at age 10--- she would NOT want to have sex with a boy. She wouldn't even hold hands or kiss a boy. That was the only thing offensive for me (as an adult watching the movie). Now, my husband was trying to be very respectful of me and not look at naked women, which after a while I said 'seriously....we may as well leave the movie if you are going to look away when a naked woman is on the screen because there were hardly any scenes like that! So...here's my summary. guys are going to LOOOOOOOOOOOOVE the movie. If it is a date night with the wife, make sure she doesn't mind you ogling the naked women, because otherwise it'll be a fight or you'll be looking at the floor for 2 hours. If you're single you'll love it but leave frustrated!! :) I wouldn't allow my kids to see it until, well, college!!!

Bad Movie!!!!!
This movie should have been in the adult X Rental. This is NO movie to have our kids see. What the HELL is this country coming to? SEX! SEX! SEX! Can't you make nice funny movies without SEX all the time??????

disgusting
I am actually unpleasantly surprised that all the ratings on here are from people under 16. What were you thinking going to see a movie like this? I did not see it, and that reason is because I feel that I'm too young to be seeing a movie like this, full of porn and poor morals. I guess I was wrong. But, thank you common sense media for having this site so at least some people will come on here before watching the movie to know what the content and plot's like.

EXTREAMLY RAUNCHY but very very funny
this movie is awsome but raunchy it has like 20 sex scenes all within the same 5 minuites ,it all depends on the parent but i think this movie is just fine for ages 12 and up and the only nudity is breasts,and nothing else

This movie will make you turn red!
I rented Good-Luck Chuck thinking that the movie was going to be a semi-funny comedy. I actually thought the movie was PG-13, but man was I wrong this movie was flat out embarrassing and I was watching the movie with only my boyfriend and his friend. I had to leave the room and do something to get the awful sex images out of my head. By the way what woman sleeps with a stranger so she can find TRUE LOVE. The sad thing about this movie is that I love Dane Cook, but after this performance I will never look at him the same way.

not for the kids
Good Luck Chuck is an okay comedy. There are lots of laughs but 95 percent of the jokes are sexual. The biggest problem here is nudity and sex. There is one scene which is borderline softcore porn, i mean it is a very hard R scene I was utterly shocked. Language is as is in any R rated raunchy comedy not a whole lot of profanity but there is a lot more sexual slurs for the female "private" parts. A character in the movie is a pothead but it never actually shows him smoking.
