As the luckiest woman in the world, Ashley (Lindsay Lohan) has a wonderful life, which all changes after she kisses a stranger (Chris Pine) at a costume party. She sees everything turn into a living hell, as she realizes that she has unwittingly exchanged her good fortune for the stranger's bad luck.

Critics Consensus

Just My Luck asks little of its leads and less of its audience, adding up to a middling teen rom-com that sorely lacks sparks.

This movie is less about the two main characters falling in love and more about exploring the equilibrium of good will in the universe. It's a mystical fantasy about how each decision we make matters and the differing paths life can take.

…Just My Luck gets right into the scatological detail in a narrative that alternates between mishaps with molten faeces and live performances by Britpop band McFly so frequently that you literally won’t be able to tell one from another…

...a mostly watchable yet thoroughly forgettable romcom that benefits from its brisk pace and affable performances...

Very 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.

Filme fraco, o roteiro é fraco, as cenas são fracas, a história é fraca, o elenco é fraco, e ninguém ajuda a melhorar o filme, os personagens são fracos, e o filme deveria ter cenas bem melhores e relevantes, para fazer o filme ser bom

Tbh the critics reviews for "Just My Luck" is rather harsh. It's your typical rom-com with a silly and intriguing enough premise of someone with all of the luck vs. someone who doesn't + the exchange of these qualities & how they affect their daily life. The movie mainly works due to the charming and easy going leads who make us care and root for them getting together. There is nothing different really with this rom-com for others, but it's serviceable for an easy watch on the couch.
