Review of Logan Lucky (2017) by Rebecca31 — 25 Aug 2017

So imagine Ocean’s Eleven but instead of a casino it’s a NASCAR race and instead of George Clooney and company in their designer sunglasses and slick suits you’ve got Channing Tatum and his group of rednecks.

Throw in Daniel Craig with bleach blonde hair for good measure and you’ve got Logan Lucky. A heist movie that doesn’t take itself too seriously. It’s mad, it’s funny and highly entertaining. No it isn’t the best heist movie you’ll ever watch, it’s overly long and adds too much backstory that drags the plot in unnecessary places.

Oh great another scene with Tatum and his daughter simply there to highlight his money problems but he loves his daughter so it’s ok for him to pull off this heist because deep down he’s a good person.

You know just in case you didn’t pick up on that the first time. We know it’s a heist movie so just get on with it. And don’t ask me how they did it but the end was both rushed and dragged out all at the same time.

For me Daniel Craig stole the show but the whole cast worked very well together. Recommended.
