LUCKY YOU (2007) - ♦♦

Directed by - Curtis Hanson

Written by - Eric Roth, Curtis Hanson

Starring - Eric Bana, Drew Barrymore, Robert Duvall

"Lucky You chronicles the everyday life of a professional gambler. Too structured and flawed by its many clichés, Hanson’s film shamefully wastes its concept potential by becoming very disappointingly unoriginal. In the end, perhaps the film’s biggest stake to claim is the clear way in which it is able to reveal the technicalities, tactics and drama of the game of poker, the lead character’s favoured game."

Drama, USA/Germany/Australia
