Lucky Day

I enjoyed this odd-ball crime comedy, it came across like a low budget Tarantino film, with European overtones in terms of style, this film involves one unfortunate guy who gets out of jail and the crazy day he has trying to keep his life together and the characters that affect his world, I have to give props to Crispin Glover for providing the most unhinged villain, he is hardcore crazy as Luc the retirement planner, the parole officer in the film was hilarious , the bar scene has to be seen, very dark and funny as well,it goes by rather quickly this film so it won't take up too much of your time, good action scenes and acting overall.

This was a fun movie and the acting was great. Yes, there was some weird unnecessary attachment to pulp fiction (25 years later!) but I'm pretty sure that was intentional. I can tell Roger Avary was almost doing an homage to Pulp Fiction and it didn't weaken the film for me. Crispin Glover was awesome, the actor that played Red was solid, the female lead was great too. The over-the-top bits were perfectly executed, finding the balance between absurd and comical while keeping the story flowing. I didn't know what to expect going into this, but I left the theatre wanting to see it again. It packed a lot of action and great acting into a film that was probably 10 mil budget (low in this day and age.)

The crazy frenchman is on a revenge streak and fresh-outta-jail is trying to protect his family. The movie has an identity crisis / like a dark action that can't decide if it wants to be funny.

This film had a lot going for it a great writer/ director. Solid actors and for some reason nothing really worked and film just dragged on.

This is one of those movies I put a star next to to watch sometime in the future then forgot about it because there were so many bad reviews.

I finally got around to it and it was not all that bad. Sure there were some problems with it. But over all the story lone, acting and end did not come off as amateurish as some have claimed.
