Getting Lucky, a largely inept and amateurish exploitation flick, follows the adventures of a stereotypical high school nerd in love with the pretty blonde (and bland) cheerleader. Upon finding a leprechaun in a beer bottle, our hero goes on a series of tepid misadventures on the way to the obligatory happy ending. The film is only worth watching for the memorable, eye-opening scene in which the foibles of the incompetent leprechaun accidentally bring the cheerleader to a shattering orgasm in the middle of history class (Lezlie Z. McCraw is at least as convincing as Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally). Beyond this, expect a ridiculous, insipid waste of time with a vomit-inducing final reel that throws in everything from a barbarian to a nest of hornets.
Okay, so it won't win any cinema awards. But there is something enticing about this movie. Perhaps i just like bad B-Movies that have a good plot and a few original moments in them. The shrinking sequence is worth watching the movie for! Quite original, funny, and just plain enjoyable to a select B-Movie audience. They need to release this on DVD!

A great film that needs to be reproduced. A hard movie to find, if you get a hold of it you will be in for a treat. The shrinking sequence is great!! A movie the whole family can enjoy
There are really bad movies, and movies that are so bad they are just great, and this is one of those movies. After seeing all the not so good comments i feel i have to stick up for this movie. The story is stupid, the acting is terrible, the plot doesn't exist, but it all makes for one really funny movie, and i get the feeling this was at least partly intentional. I've got it on DVD, maybe it has been edited for TV, some of the really funny bits are also comments that can be hard to hear. And anyone who didn't like anything about this movie must have skipped the credits, if you do see this movie make sure you read the credits all the way through, they had me in tears.
My best friend wrote it and directed it and asked me to come over for free and do this stupid thing, oh, and yes I'm not an actor (could you tell? Micheal went on to do a bunch of these things and he actually lives off the money to this day! I think it cost about 3 grand to make. Anyhow, have fun peoples.. I'm Nubbs by the way.
