Good Luck Chuck

In a surprising turn of events — even for people behind the movie itself — The Game Plan, a PG-rated family-friendly flick starring Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, came in at No. 1 at the box office this weekend. The Disney movie far outpaced the action-war film The Kingdom, which took in $17.7 million and the No. 2 spot. Variety speculates whether The Kingdom's weak opening is an indication of audiences' reluctance "to see films addressing the consequences of the war on terror."

Favorites from last weekend held over: Resident Evil 3: Extinction came in third place with Good Luck Chuck following it at No. 4. 3:10 to Yuma continued to hold its own in its fourth weekend, coming in at No. 5. Feast of Love didn't even make it into the top ten and brought home a slim $1.7 million.

This weekend we'll see if Ben Stiller and Co. will be breaking any hearts at the box office with The Heartbreak Kid.

In a slightly surprising turn of events, the third Resident Evil movie, Resident Evil: Extinction, took the No. 1 spot at the box office this weekend, beating out Good Luck Chuck by quite a bit. Still, Chuck did manage to make $14 million over its first weekend and came in second place. The Brave One continues to do well, holding steady at No. 3, followed by 3:10 to Yuma in fourth place and Eastern Promises rounding out the top five movies of the weekend.

Sydney White, bringing in the younger crowds, came in at No. 6 with just over $5 million. Mr. Woodcock followed behind with Superbad, The Bourne Ultimatum and Dragon Wars completing the top ten. This coming weekend we'll see if love beats evil when Feast of Love opens nationwide.

I went into Good Luck Chuck with nothing more than a faint hope that I might be pleasantly surprised. Unfortunately, the movie fails to offer anything beyond what the decidedly un-funny previews suggest. The gross humor — like the gazillion gratuitous boob shots (none of them Alba's) and an incredibly awkward Dane Cook sex montage — comes off as simply crude and cringe-worthy.

The movie begins with pre-teen Charlie’s first game of spin-the-bottle when the bottle lands on a brooding 10-year-old goth girl. When he denies her 7 minutes in heaven she put an anti-love hex on him. Charlie grows up to become a successful dentist who is blissfully unaware of his inability to love, simply taking advantage of the beautiful women who inexplicably throw themselves at him (so, it wasn't that bad of a hex, really). It’s not until his ex-girlfriend uses her wedding toast to thank him for helping her find her match that Charlie realizes something may be amiss with all of the no-strings attached action he’s been getting.

Last night Jessica Alba and Dane Cook came out to premiere their new comedy Good Luck Chuck in LA. The actress just arrived home from her trip on the east coast promoting the movie and talking about how exciting it was for her to venture into comedy. Dane looks like he has dyed his hair darker and it doesn't really suit him. Neither does the suit. I prefer Dane casual. As for the movie in general, it's not screaming blockbuster but who knows - maybe a good laugh is exactly what everyone needs this weekend. Will you be going to check out the movie?

Here's a tip for getting a movie or TV show made in Hollywood these days: Name a main character Chuck. Two movies and a series have "Chuck" in their title; three more have Chucks in key roles. Can't tell Chuck Bartowski from Chuck Bass? Check out this guide:

Jessica Alba Gets Goofy in Good Luck Chuck

Last June we saw Jessica Alba with her boyfriend Cash and her pups on a break from filming Good Luck Chuck with Dane Cook.

Last June we saw Jessica Alba with her boyfriend Cash and her pups on a break from filming Good Luck Chuck with Dane Cook. A few weeks ago Jessica was spotted again with her man doing their normal together stuff. This weekend Jessica was spotted having lunch with a friend at The Ivy. She doesn't look as happy as she normally does when she's with Cash but she knew she'd be facing the cameras so we don't think she's hiding anything. Besides, maybe she wants to get noticed since her new movie is coming out this summer.
