Review of Lucky You (2007) by Richard F — 11 Feb 2008
Despite it's flaws, I liked this movie.
Eric Bana employed a fraction of his talent for his role - as did Duvall. Having said that, they both still managed to pull off their respective roles sufficiently enough for a movie of this modest scope.
A small but, noticeable problem with the movie was the story's lack of direction. One moment it's a romantic comedy, the next it's a father-son reconcilement movie and, the next, it's a full on poker movie.
Usually, I'd applaud such multi-faceted dynamics but, as there didn't seem to be any proper cohesion - the strength of the movie suffered.
Other notes: Features an excellent cameo from Robert Downey Jr!
