Lucky Fritz

Corey Feldman proves to be a very good actor a few times a decade. This and "The Birthday" (2004) and I suppose, "Lost Boys:The Thirst" are those films. This is a movie you can watch every few months or so when you're feeling lazy and want a ray of sunshine.

A story about a young man whom has been struck by lightening and survived so many times, he is given the nickname "Lucky" Fritz.

It has nice twists and turns and light, fun performances throughout. Filled with good humour and likable characters, it is highly recommended. This is my first review. I couldn't believe there were none supporting or against this film. I had to write one. It deserves some recognition.

I've been a fan and comeback supporter of Corey Feldman for years. As a result I've watched many mediocre and bad films, but this was a rare treat. This is what he can do when given a chance, a good character and a funny script.

Lucky Fritz (Corey Feldman) lives a well-ordered simple life. He lives on a houseboat and works at a local restaurant. He has a friend to confide in. His only problem in life is that he is enamored with a local girl Gretchen Henderlein (Julia Dietze.) Having a shy nature, he is taking forever to let Gretchen know how he feels.

One day he is struck by lightning. This is the third time. Yep, he feels funny. Soon he finds himself attractive to metal, people, dogs, and whatnot. Is it a blessing or a curse as he now must deal with his now found attractive nature. Will this cure or compound his shyness?

We watch as his world takes a turn, and he finds himself in the limelight. Will he go off the deep end or become a reclose. Will it ever end or will he be attractive for ever. Let us not forget Gretchen.

I have watched many films by Corey Feldman over the years. There are certainly other films. I don't mind him in and other that he's done well. However, this has to be my favorite film that he's done. The movie is funny and has a general feel good nature about it. It also has some pretty impressive, moral messages about being yourself. I also love the fact that Feldman does a German accent for the film and the overall character that he portrays. There is also some very good comedic timing overall despite some repetitive humor. However, given that it was only filmed in 12 days to film this movie, it is quite amazing. I don't understand why it has such a low rating. Totally worth watching in my book.
