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.

absolutely dreadful, waste of time & money

I urge you not to waste your valuable time or money on this tripe. None of the characters made any sense - they were neither funny nor frightening. The storyline was laughable and also made no sense whatsoever! I can only imagine the reviews that say they liked it here were friends or relatives of those that made the film. I would give this zero stars but IMDb doesn't allow for it. The music was rubbish, the action so badly filmed, the attempts at comedy creaked so loudly I could hardly hear the rest of the dialogue over it. In fact, I'm not really sure why I'm wasting time writing this when I've already wasted 90 minutes watching the film. Sad, sad, sad, bad, bad, bad.

Proper English Action flick

Without any expectations I started 'Get Lucky', and from the first moment on I got that this is a low-budget action movie. No known actors, some poor camera work and acting is at a sub- standard.

Look through the flaws, however, and you'll find a movie that is a somewhat entertaining Brit Flick. The storyline has got some surprising elements, the gangster characters are believable and there is some humor. It's all delivered in a cheesy package, with poor special, I mean, normal effects. But most of all, the movie never reaches a high point, and that's disappointing.

By no means is this a good movie. I really get the feeling they tried, but failed, to get enough out of it.

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.
