Crude and vulgar

Critic Rating
Reader Rating 0

This is a tale of two fairly revolting men (Dane Cook and Dan Fogler) who chase women with remorseless abandon but, not surprisingly, only find love in the last reel.

Charlie (Cook) is a dentist who believes he has a childhood hex on him which means that after bedding him, a girl will go on to meet her true mate.

When his female patients find out about the curse, they, much to his delight, queue up to bed him because, as we all know, women are really only after marriage.

Charlie's friend Stu (Fogler) is a plastic surgeon obsessed with breasts and masturbation. You may have guessed this is Farrelly brothers territory, but it is done without the slightest inkling of charm or skill. It is crude, vulgar and dispiriting to watch. Jessica Alba is the unfortunate girl the dentist is determined to hook.

Good Luck Chuck
Cert: 15
