YOUR RATING

Brothers Lucky and Raphael have always lived on the wrong side of the law. When a "job" goes very wrong and Lucky finds himself in debt to local heavies, Sebastian and Kramer, he is forced to join his wayward brother on the biggest heist of their careers. While Raphael concocts a plan to rob the casino of the most powerful crime-lord in town, Mr Zigic, and enlists the help of Zigic's own unwitting nephew Niko and employee Eli, Lucky is distracted by the girl of his dreams, femme fatale Bridget, who may not be all that she seems. With betrayals and twists of fate, it seems everyone has an ulterior motive. The question is who can the brothers trust on the most important night of their lives?

Entertaining

Saw Get Lucky at the cinema a couple of weeks ago. I was not sure what to expect from seeing the on-line trailers. Based on two brothers Lucky and Raphael, who earn a living less honest than most who team up with some EU underworld. The Job an underground casino heist. I was open minded at first, the film managed to keep me interested all the way to the end. With twists and turns throughout and some humour. Enjoyed this film on face value. I did not look to deep into it. Really enjoyed Get Lucky and it comes with the added bonus of seeing Emily Attack from Inbetweeners fame. Will watch again on DVD with my mates and some beers.

Don't bother

Think about all the worst things to do when making a film and this does them all. Bad everything. Acting, directing, writing, plot, casting, editing, photography, the list is endless. Just astonishes me why people still make or are interested in watching cliché British gangster films. That ship sailed long long ago. And who would be stupid enough to put up the money to make this drivel? Please can we move on, and invest in good plausible stories. Doesn't have to be Jane Austen or a romantic comedy. Or cost an absolute fortune to make. They can be thrillers, crime stories, violent, whatever. Just as long as they are well made with a decent script. This film should be shown to aspiring film students as an example of how to get it totally wrong.

Very original and thoroughly enjoyable!

Saw this film at AFM earlier this year and really enjoyed it. A great British cast, a cracking plot and some twists and turns that I never saw coming. The humor, standard of acting, camera work and soundtrack (which was wicked!) elevate this movie far above many 'Brit Flicks' of it's kind. It also had a very cool, film noir, 1940's vibe which was refreshing. All the women were in dresses and the guys were in suits and ties. Reminded me a little of The Untouchables which actually got a mention in the film so it clearly wasn't just a coincidence!

Two thumbs up and a special mention to TJ Ramini who wrote it and starred. Terrific performance and a compelling script.

Another one

There are quite a few movies out there who emulate the same kind of formula. So behind the betrayals and double stabbings or plot twists, there is a shallow shell waiting to be opened. But as it is with those things, nothing good waits inside of it. Actually it's almost better not to watch at all.

That's not to say this does not have its fair share of moments (the relationship between two bouncers/hit men is pretty neat and probably the best thing) or the fact that the actors are really trying and almost succeeding in conveying their emotions. But in the end you just won't care for anyone or anything that is coming at you ... literally.

I now truly understand the meaning of "DISAPPOINTMENT"

90 Minutes of my life I'll forever be trying to claw back. Badly acted, badly cut and edited The so called "fight scenes" & "special effects" would have been more at home on a SYFY Channel production. The whole thing looked as though it had been made by kids working on a school film project. After reading a review and recognising quite a few of the actors in the movie I was looking forward to watching another good BRIT GANGSTER movie as I am a big fan of the genre, but I have to say that had this been the first film of this type I had ever watched, then I would definitely NEVER have watched another. This is absolutely the worst film I have seen all year.

In exchange for free sex toys that were used in a bedroom scene, the producers allowed Symon & Samantha Reeves (who provided the items from the company they work for Simplypleasure.Com) to be extras in the bar scene.
