- 60The Hollywood ReporterSheri LindenThe Hollywood ReporterSheri LindenHas the feel of a contemporary screwball romance, if not the crackling one-liners of classic screwball. But Lindsay Lohan and Chris Pine make a charming star-crossed couple, and tweens and teens will find enough plot reversals to keep them hooked.
- 50The New York TimesDana StevensThe New York TimesDana StevensJust My Luck is a bit of lukewarm cappuccino froth confected to float Ms. Lohan to the next stage of her career.
- 50VarietyJustin ChangVarietyJustin ChangHelmer Donald Petrie seems at times to be making the modern-day equivalent of a Doris Day comedy, setting the pic in a lacquered fantasy New York, piling on cutesy-coy dialogue and mining a fluffy premise for all manner of far-fetched cleverness.
- 50USA TodayClaudia PuigUSA TodayClaudia PuigAn occasionally entertaining, always fluffy teen romantic comedy with some moderately funny physical comedy by gadabout star Lindsay Lohan.
- 40L.A. WeeklyElla TaylorL.A. WeeklyElla TaylorLooking tired and sallow and drained of her customary glow, Lindsay Lohan marches grimly through this mechanical tween comedy as if it were a particularly tedious homework assignment. Which it is.
- 38Chicago TribuneChicago TribunePresumably, this movie was designed to be a fun romp, and in that it fails.
- 25Seattle Post-IntelligencerSeattle Post-IntelligencerThe whole affair comes off as thin and artificial as a super model after a botox party.
- 11Austin ChronicleAustin ChronicleNo doubt this film will please the pre-teen set, but they'd be so much better off staying home and renting "Mean Girls."
- 10Washington PostStephen HunterWashington PostStephen HunterIn the end, I can't think of a movie that matters less than Just My Luck. It's just negligible.
