Review of Happy-Go-Lucky (2008) by John S — 01 Nov 2009

Poppy is like one of those strange people you see walking down the street muttering to themselves. if you got involved in a conversation with her, it would be one of those situations you casually back out of as she goes on about nothing.

that's what this movie is, really. its about nothing. obviously we get a story about this 30 year old woman who teaches, takes behind-the-wheel, has troubles with students, etc. where does it go? I found it all to be remarkably flat.

a crazy bubbly woman gets a hard smack on the face by reality - and every extended moment in between.
