Lucky Day

Violent, gory, crude and vulgar. If this is your kind of thing, you will probably enjoy "Lucky Day". Roger Avary directs and writes this film. He co-wrote Pulp Fiction and also wrote screenplays for Silent Hill and Beowulf. He directed Killing Zoe and The Rules of Attraction (both underrated in my opinion).. He has done some good stuff and I enjoyed all those movies. That being said, I was expecting a little more with this one. It wasn't great but it definitely wasn't bad either. It diverted my attention for a solid 95 minutes. If you ask me, the reason to watch this movie is for Crispin Glover's performance as the psychopathic hit man with a crazy French accent. So over the top but it makes the movie that much better. I'm not saying the other actors weren't good in it because they work with what they are given and they do a good job. Luke Bracey and Nina Dobrev (who puts on a convincing accent as well), were both solid in their roles. The movie could have had a little more storyline added in there, but it was watchable. I'll give it a 6.75/10

First, I appreciate this kind of movies from time to time that tries hard to copy the original style from Pulp Fiction or Lock and Stock. Second, this one tries hard but fails soon, as soon as the script create weird situations and decisions from the characters. Lastly, some movie characters could have been great, with a more risky script, but the movie fails on originality and sinks by itself. The ending is a cheesy joke. Overall watchable but not a great one. I suggest to watch it if you're a great fan of Guy Ritchie's movies or Tarantino. I didn't love as I would this one honey bunny.

I enjoyed this odd-ball crime comedy, it came across like a low budget Tarantino film, with European overtones in terms of style, this film involves one unfortunate guy who gets out of jail and the crazy day he has trying to keep his life together and the characters that affect his world, I have to give props to Crispin Glover for providing the most unhinged villain, he is hardcore crazy as Luc the retirement planner, the parole officer in the film was hilarious , the bar scene has to be seen, very dark and funny as well,it goes by rather quickly this film so it won't take up too much of your time, good action scenes and acting overall.

This film had a lot going for it a great writer/ director. Solid actors and for some reason nothing really worked and film just dragged on.

The crazy frenchman is on a revenge streak and fresh-outta-jail is trying to protect his family. The movie has an identity crisis / like a dark action that can't decide if it wants to be funny.
