Review of Just My Luck (2006) by Alenor L — 15 Jun 2012
Awww, wasn't Chris Pine Cute?? Well, so so.
Was this movie cute?? Well, almost. Not too bad actually. Donald Petrie's comedies are always in the borderline of fun and disaster. He could manage anyhow the teen melodrama, and put lot of physical humour, like in the Pink Panther Saga. Steve Martin's one.
Now, it was predictable, but funny. Popcorn fun not Oscar fun. Ginger Ke$ha (Lindsay) is not a teen anymore, and seems to be lucky with men. I think Homeless Men, because, gawd, It's Lindsay Lohan!
Chris Pine is a chocolate covered marshmallow. This movie was one of his first and he, well, he didn't showed up as the actor he is now, but at least he looked cute.
But Chemistry? Romance? No, you will not want to see this. There is almost none, more OUCHS and YUCK than kisses and sex....Of course no sex, It's Lindsay Lohan, god dammit!
It was fun, but not hilarious fun, but painful fun. Not painful to watch but painful in situations and moments of the movie where the plot just forgets. So you can go see it, and eat popcorn. You will be happy.
