10 Most Ridiculous Rom-Com Premises In Cinema History

3. Good Luck Chuck €“ Dane Cook's Penis Makes Marriage Happen

Not so lucky is Good Luck Chuck, which conversely is rated among the worst romantic comedies ever made. It boasts a similarly magical premise, yet with none of the heart or wit of a film like Groundhog Day. Anyway, the premise €“ Chuck (Dane Cook) has been cursed since childhood due to him refusing to have sex with a goth girl, who placed said curse on him, meaning that every girl he has sex with will break up with him immediately after and marry the next man she meets. It's not a terrible premise by any means, but it's so lacking in charm and intelligence that Cook and Alba were destined to earn Razzie nominations from the second the script was greenlit. So much more could have been done with an idea like this, but instead it settles for lowest-common denominator jokes and, well, Dane Cook.
