Review by Eye

The cosmos conspires to teach Lindsay Lohan a lesson in Just My Luck, a slick but stupefying effort by veteran hack Donald Petrie, the go-to guy for brightly lit romantic piffle. If this film is slightly more tolerable than the director’s previous How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days, it’s not because of anything Petrie has done: his style remains television-bland, with the camera moving only to traverse the expanse of Lohan’s legs and body whenever her character, the preternaturally lucky PR flack Ashley, makes a va-voom entrance at one of the various parties it is her job to attend. more..

Just my luck, I arrived at the Silver City Metropolis Cinema just in time to miss the 7:30 p.m. showing of Just My Luck causing me to have to wait until the 10:15 showing—I guess the Canadians like to make sure there is time to really clean the theatres in between showings. Now this can spell disaster to go to a film this late at night. The risk of dozing off into Slumberland is very, very high. I figure if I don’t fall asleep during a movie under such conditions; that, at least, is a pretty good sign that the movie is decently entertaining. As it turns out, I was fully awake and entertained by this film. Which sort of surprises me in a way. It might be helpful to put up a bit of a chart here with what this movie had going for and against it in my mind before I got into the theatre. more..

Being a household name can be good, and sometimes it can be bad. I’m not sure yet which way the scales have tipped for Lindsay Lohan, although I’m sure the box office of her latest film “Just My Luck” will give us an idea of this.

Right now, a “Lindsay Lohan movie” already has a certain meaning. You’re not going to get your action film fan racing out to see this. Her films are falling into the category of “Sandra Bullock romantic comedy.” If you like them, you’ll most likely enjoy “Just My Luck.” However, if the mere sight of Lohan’s grinning mug makes you want to hurl, you’ll want to avoid this film. more..
