"Charlie is a successful dentist but he can't seem to find the right girl. He finds out at an ex-girlfriend's wedding that every woman he has ever slept with has found true love with the next guy after him. He becomes known as a "good luck charm" for women. Now he must break his good-luck curse before the girl of his dreams winds up with the next guy she meets."Movie type: Comedy - CAUTION!!! THIS IS NOT THE STANDARD ROMANTIC COMEDY IT APPEARS TO BE! It is EXTREMELY SEXUAL and VERY GRAPHIC! Throughout the movie one of the male characters gets sexually nasty and gross. When it's not sexual, it's pretty much what you expect it to be, a cute and funny romantic comedy.

Reviews:
”Average The movie is coarse and features a romance, but the laughs are sporadic at best and there's no spark between the male and female leads.” Berardinelli, Internet Critic
”Poor Here is the dirty movie of the year, slimy and scummy, and among its casualties is poor Jessica Alba, who is a cutie and shouldn't have been let out to play with these boys.” Roger Ebert
”Below Average There's a potentially cute pairing at the center of editor-turned-director Mark Helfrich's feature debut, but like everything else about this insulting romantic comedy, the Jessica Alba/Dane Cook love match is degraded by vile jokes, a boorish attitude toward women and a smutty tackiness not seen since those stupid nudie-cuties of the 1960s.” TV Guide Online
”Below Average A boorish exercise in testosterone-high low comedy.” Newsday
