Cursed since childhood 'Sleep with Charlie once, and the next man you meet will be your true love', dentist Charlie Kagan cannot find the right woman. Then Chuck meets a girl named Cam and tries to break the curse to be with her.
The script is so reliant on wish-fulfillment it forgets to add those important little touches: you know, wit, sincerity, characterisation, that kind of thing... A very cheap shot - and hardly anyone calls him 'Chuck'.
This is an unoriginal, dull-witted, juvenile, crude, offensive, idiotic and pointless romantic comedy that makes no sense. None.
