Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Quiet Muffin This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.
Cristal The movie really just wants to entertain people.
AishFan Luck has an impressive star-cast full of talented actors--established and new--whom we don't get to see too often. The movie has a unique, twisted storyline where Sanjay Dutt plays a don who runs an underworld betting organization that puts money on certain people's luck. These people have been hand-picked from around the world based on their "luck," which uncannily puts odds in their favor in major tasks, challenges, obstacles, or games. Players get a high gambling on the lives of these "lucky elite" who participate in suicidal tasks.The film's USP is definitely its amazing action sequences. What is even more surprising is that the stars did actually perform several of the stunts themselves. Skydiving, swimming among shark-infested waters, and running on a train are just some of the beautifully captured scenes in marvelous African locales. Cinematography and special effects are great. Music is quite good too, accompanied with nice videos.
R SN This was a crappy movie from the get go. I was only held in suspense waiting for danny denzongpa to evolve. Shame on all the idiots who spend money to make such crap. The guy who wrote this screenplay must think he is hot- sorry! dude news flash, go back to school, be intelligent and CREATIVE before writing such crap again. And what drugs was the director and producer doing to get so inspired to make this crap. PLEASE Don't" SPEND your Money to see this. The easy on the eyes actors except for sunjay dutt (you are washed up, bloated and done for with no acting skills left and the same old tired slow walk with slumped shoulders hold no appeal any longer) got wasted in this movie as well. UGH!
namashi_1 Soham Shah made his debut as a filmmaker way back in 2005, with the well-made Kaal... four years later, he's back this time around with a flick named 'LUCK'.Lets this straight: When you watch a film like 'LUCK', don't expect coming out watching a milestone. Such films promise to entertain, that's it! Based on human betting and their LUCK, Shah impresses big time with his slick direction in 'LUCK'.'LUCK' has its hiccups up, but come on which film doesn't. Logic is not the topic here, entertainment is. 'LUCK' succeeds in keeping the viewers interest alive in those 2 hours and some minutes. Despite a weak climax, 'LUCK' is highly an engaging watch. Slick direction, grind house production value, first-rate performances, excellent background score and cinematography make 'LUCK' indeed worth a watch.Performances: Mithun Chakraborty is fantastic. His portions are among the high-points of the film. Sanjay Dutt is stylish as moussa. Imran Khan is alright, he doesn't really suit the action-oriented role. Danny is in form after a long time. Shurti Hassan makes a good debut, but she enters the scene only at the interval. She deserved more footage, keeping in mind this is her launch pad. Chitrashi Rawat is first-rate in a brief role. Ravi Kishan is superb, he plays the Grey character with remarkable ease.All said n done, 'LUCK' is entertainment at its best. Leave your brains at home and go watch 'LUCK', your bound to love it. Thumbs Up!
quaker-9 LUCK is a stylish movie with good dialogues and like all other movies which depict high-end action even LUCK had to compromise a little on common sense and logic. I totally disliked KAAL, the same witer-director Soham's 2005 disaster movie! LUCK as a movie could have surely captured a cult-following, but it lacked a constant adrenalin flow.A few ideas in this movie might look similar to that in Kaante..like the first job assigned to Imran Khan and the concept of gathering a gang for a special task. What similarities to Deathrace? No need to mention if you have seen Deathrace (any old/new) Matrix 1, because Danny in this movie was the Morpheus and Imraan was the Neo. (like many other wanna-be/could-be Neos)Sanjay Dutt as usual carries of the Underworld shade very well (though he mentions that he is a Busineessman who does "Pure Business" and not a Mafia DON in the movie). Sanjay Dutt sports a new beard style in every new hardcore Mafia movie, Kaante/Plan/etc. etc. I would like to see what is his new beard style since he is done with almost all !! You will get to see him doing his typical "I don't know" type-move when he opens up both of his arms wide and moves his neck and gives a "I-don't-know-anything" facial expression. Also there are a few unintentional funny scenes : - When Danny helps Imraan get out of the ATM trouble near Fountain and later on after driving for so long drops him there again !! ?? - Where US Embassy in Bombay is located at VT ?? (atleast as per the movie) - Where Imraan Khan can get 3 stamps of "REJECTED", always then and there on the spot on his passport.I watched this today morning @ Jaipur(India) and I could see localites whistling and clapping on Mithun's performance.. very opposite from a Metro like Bombay.LUCK is a good watch if you want to get an experience of jumping from a building/airplane/running-burning-train and can't do it, but instead are ready to compromise 2.5 hrs for a similar lukewarm feeling.
