Lucky Day

I think this is quite a fun crime comedy. There's blood, action, love and jokes. The French madman is a memorable character, while the art by the wife quite resembles what I think of the modern art world. I enjoyed watching this film.

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.

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.

This is one of those movies I put a star next to to watch sometime in the future then forgot about it because there were so many bad reviews.

I finally got around to it and it was not all that bad. Sure there were some problems with it. But over all the story lone, acting and end did not come off as amateurish as some have claimed.
