...... In an indecipherable story!When this movie started with a 'joke' opening I should have taken the hint and given up on it right away. But no, I decided to stick with it and after twenty or thirty minutes into the story I was lost on it's plot as I just couldn't understand what they were saying. Maybe I could understand every third or fourth word at best.I know the actors are speaking English but the movie needs subtitles for the rest of the English speaking world. The British may be able to understand this low-end speaking but I could not. There was recently a television show here in the US titled "Here Comes Honey Boo-Boo" and English subtitles were used because the family in this 'reality' show were so low on the education scale the producers realized the viewing public outside of Georgia would need it.So get lucky and find a Brit to see this flick with you and you might be able to make sense of it.

Saw Get Lucky at the cinema a couple of weeks ago. I was not sure what to expect from seeing the on-line trailers. Based on two brothers Lucky and Raphael, who earn a living less honest than most who team up with some EU underworld. The Job an underground casino heist. I was open minded at first, the film managed to keep me interested all the way to the end. With twists and turns throughout and some humour. Enjoyed this film on face value. I did not look to deep into it. Really enjoyed Get Lucky and it comes with the added bonus of seeing Emily Attack from Inbetweeners fame. Will watch again on DVD with my mates and some beers.

Review: This movie is an awful attempt at a English heist movie, because the storyline is terrible, along with the acting. From the beginning the film is all over the place, which just made me loose interest. The main character looks more like a geek than a criminal, an once again, there using Eastern Europeans as the criminals. To be honest, I wasn't expecting that much from this film because most of Craig Fairbrass movies. The ending was a clear indication that there is going to be a sequel, which I definitely won't be rushing to see. Disappointing!Round-Up: I'm yet to see a good crime caper movie come out of England since Guy Ritchies older movies. This country seems to be stuck in a rut for ideas, but that's not to say that America has come out with anything that decent nowadays. Ever since the writers strike in Hollywood, everyone has seemed to have turned to TV sitcoms and the movies that come out of Hollywood are either remakes or just complete rubbish. Independent films have taken advantage of the lack of originality in the big budget movies, and a few of them have paid off. This is just to show that know matter how much the technology has moved forward, the premise of a good movie ALWAYS relies on the storyline. I just hope that things pick up soon.Budget: $5million Worldwide Gross:I recommend this movie to people who like there crime capers that are set in the UK. 2/10

I watched this film recently and really enjoyed it. It has a bit of everything from your typical gritty storyline interspersed with humour and a good few twists to the plot along the way. Craig Fairbrass was the stand out actor for me as he delivered once again as only he can. Emily Attack provided the touch of glamour as well as portraying a very convincing femme fatale. After the recent spate of Brit films one could be forgiven for thinking that this was going to be another mundane film off the production line. It was therefore refreshing to see this film deliver with a good storyline and not fall into the trap of being predictable. A big thumbs up....now go and watch it.
