    Replacing the L with an F would be your reaction for the movie altogether

    World knows Imran Khan is a horrible actor. But why does he want to prove it to the world with the worst possible manner ? Shruti Hasan's Hindi is just as great as her father's(pun intended), no big deal. But did she read the script as if it was a zombie movie ? And of course, there's Sanjay Dutt. I get the feeling this movie was made to give incumbent captain of the Indian Cricket Team an identity crisis.

    The true Squid Game experience.

    This film has the best dialogue, the best character development ever seen and the best action sequences in any film ever. This is a must watch for every Netflix user who has watched Squid Games as it will show them the true experience, the way it was supposed to be written.

    Netflix should be ashamed that they tried to recreate this true marvel, and failed at the first hurdle. No writer can ever truly beat this masterpiece of a movie as it has no flaws.

    It is the definition of perfection.

    Netflix ripped out the core of this once in a lifetime experience and paid off all the other reviewers in 2009 using a Time Machine to make sure that this never rose from the dead desert. Truly sickening to see, I will be suing Netflix alongside the writer to protect his goldmine of a movie.

    10/10- the best thing to ever happen to this planet (apart from Jesus's birth, death, resurrection and accession).

    Poor luckless souls !!

    Please don't mistake the title for the fate of any of the characters, from the movie 'Luck'. It was just an ode to people who had to go through the ordeal (which might just find stark, blunt resonance with the worst of nightmares, that one might have to face in movie hall) of sitting through the 120 minutes of the movie luck.

    Right from the opening sequence, where Sanjay Dutt, defies death by running across some 6-7 moving trains which travel with amazing sync through the moment when fully loaded guns fail to fire on a few handpicked lucky heroes and villains to the scene where a bullet rushes through the exact position where an ordinary human being was supposed to have his heart, only to find out "alas ! it is the lucky hero and his heart is placed in some remote area of the body which usually holds something else ! duh !

    Then you might ask, for what I gave the movie a 4 out of 10. Well its for the guts of Sanjay Dutt,Imran Khan and Midhun Dada for betting that this is going to work. Shruthi Hassan, I felt, was a different face, from the usual Bollywood heroines. Sanjay Dutt does no justice to what he is capable of, by reprising the roles he did in Musafir, Dhamaal , Dus Kahaniyan and so on!And yes, its also because I did shell out a few bucks to go over to the theater to watch it and would feel that I just threw it away in the wind if I don't give it at least a 4 :) So do you want to be lucky??

    Great action stunts and good concept

    Luck has an impressive star-cast full of talented actors--established and new--whom we don't get to see too often. The movie has a unique, twisted storyline where Sanjay Dutt plays a don who runs an underworld betting organization that puts money on certain people's luck. These people have been hand-picked from around the world based on their "luck," which uncannily puts odds in their favor in major tasks, challenges, obstacles, or games. Players get a high gambling on the lives of these "lucky elite" who participate in suicidal tasks.

    The film's USP is definitely its amazing action sequences. What is even more surprising is that the stars did actually perform several of the stunts themselves. Skydiving, swimming among shark-infested waters, and running on a train are just some of the beautifully captured scenes in marvelous African locales. Cinematography and special effects are great. Music is quite good too, accompanied with nice videos.

    A good opportunity was missed

    Luck had every element in it to be a good watch, but it fails big time. The plot is good, it should have been written well. Actors were great in the movie, but then also it does not lives up to expectation.

    • Alternate versions
      The UK release was cut, the distributors were required to make compulsory cuts to several shots of animal cruelty, in this case cockfighting orchestrated for the purpose of the film, in line with the Cinematograph Films (Animals) Act 1937, in order to obtain a 15 classification. An uncut classification was not available.
