Leave your thoughts about Just My Luck.
| One Guy's OpinionFrank SwietekA flat, lackadaisical take on the supernatural love-story formula, lacking the storytelling magic or the intense romantic chemistry that might have helped it take flight. |
| Jam! MoviesLiz BraunJust My Luck is a vehicle for Lohan, and not much more. |
| Film BlatherEugene NovikovTakes the vaguely supernatural conceit of films like Intacto and The Cooler and drains it of all fascination, putting it in service of one of the more dim-witted romantic comedies I've had to sit through in recent months. |
| Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)Ken HankeTake Just My Luck for what it is -- a moderately successful attempt to move Lohan away from teenage roles and into an adult one. |
| FilmJerk.comBrian OrndorfI have no problem with Lohan desiring to be Lucy, but she's got to find a better director than the torturous Donald Petrie to help get her to that level. |
| EricDSnider.comEric D. SniderEvery single scene is an abominable assemblage of mind-boggling stupidity, completely unmotivated behavior, and unfunny slapstick. |
| Good Morning AmericaJoel SiegelVery well directed, nothing unseemly, Just My Luck is a film moms can take their daughters to. They'll both love it. And... it's dry. |
| ViewLondonMatthew TurnerFans of Lindsay Lohan's previous films will be pleased to learn that she's lost none of her comic timing and self-deprecating charm - she's extremely appealing here, even if she does need to rediscover the joys of food. |
| Baltimore SunChris KaltenbachAll this might be forgivable if Just My Luck had a little more substance, but it never moves beyond the single joke of its premise. |
| Daily Mirror (UK)David EdwardsDespite the Manhattan dating scene stuff, the PG certificate means there's not much sex in this city, but more than enough raunchy undertones to keep teenage girls happy. |
