    My favourite movie!

    Honestly, this is my all time favorite movie. Sounds silly, but it always manages to make me feel better and remember the good old times back in 2011-2012. We've seen this plot before but I think it fits the characters and the main show very well. Both stories (the one of the girls and the one of the boys) are super fun and exciting to watch. I love how many things were happening and it just does not get boring or too slow. The acting is good even though there are some unrealistic parts but come on, it's a Disney movie! In general, it's a warm/cozy movie that does not necessarily need to be taken super seriously as I see some people do in the other reviews. If you are looking for a movie that is going to make you feel nice and nostalgic, this is it! Especially if you are fan of "Good Luck Charlie", you will love it. Can't wait to watch it again during the winter holidays or even sooner!

    Meh

    It's not the best Disney movie but neither the worst one. It's enjoyable and fun to watch but if you skip wouldn't be a problem.

    One interesting Christmas for the Duncans

    You really have to be fans of the Good Luck Charlie show from Disney to appreciate the film. Viewing the show and knowing the characters will give you a leg up on those watching this film cold.

    Saying that this is a typical family oriented Disney product about the Duncan family leaving cold and snowy Denver for a Palm Springs Christmas with the maternal grandparents Michael Kagen and Debra Monk.

    But a mixup with the plane tickets has Eric Allen Kramer, Jason Dolley, and Bradley Steven Perry flying and Lynn-Allyn Baker and Bridget Mendler using whatever ground transportation they can scrounge. Baby Charlie goes with the guys.

    Scrounge they have to as the two windup in all kinds of exotic adventures. Usually because Baker has a pugnacious personality and opens her mouth at the wrong time. They also at some point have to sing for their supper and Bridget Mendler can certainly sing.

    Leaving Eric Allen Kramer with his supercritical mother-in-law ain't working out for him either. Jason Dolley gets a nasty sunburn, the kind kids from Denver don't get unless they like the desert. And Bradley Steven Perry regrets turning Grandpa on to video games.

    Especially for fans of the show it's a nice Christmas movie. It works out kind of crazily for all.

    Maybe The Last Good DCOM

    This, is a good movie. The cinematography and quality is actually pretty good. The plot is a LITTLE cliche, with the show's main protaginist, Teddy, and Amy getting separated from the boys & Charlie, and their quest to get to them. The chemistry between the actors is actually good. The story is a little cheesy, but is still enjoyable. Is this the last good Disney Channel Original Movie? Well, let's see. After this, we get Frenemies, Radio Rebel, Girl v. Monster, you get the pitcure. In conclusion, 8/10: A little cheesy, but still an overall good time. And a great treat for die-hard fans of the show.

    Fun - Just Not One Of Disney's Best

    "Good Luck Charlie: The Movie" is definitely not the worst kind of family comedy, though I have to admit I personally prefer the show to this. Still, it makes a great addition to the series as a little Christmas movie. I didn't plan to catch this in the first place. Then I decided I might as well watch this after I tuned to the Disney Channel looking for some fun after some serious work.

    First of all, the story is a mix of unoriginal ideas. It wasn't boring. Not at all. Just unoriginal. A vehicle going downhill with a broken brake and some typical war games, these all sound familiar. So you should not expect anything fresh or special, but it is still fun for me. There aren't exactly any particular moments or scenes that I find dull or highly intriguing, but trust me, it is not a mess. The story fits together and is presented well.

    Some scenes near the end of the movies are good, and I liked the ending too. And yes, there was the surprise which I am not going to ruin here. But I do hope that Disney will maintain the consistency and keep that "surprise" valid for upcoming episodes on the show.

    I guess there is not a single reason for me to say this is a bad movie, but it really could've been much better, so I think I will put this in the middle of the scale. This is by no means a poor family comedy, considering there are "better" choices out there. If you're afraid of replaying awful memories of this year's little Miss Judy Moody, don't worry. This is a lot, a lot and a lot less disturbing.
