It seems that the script was not much longer than the synopsis. The movie is pretentious and doesn't have that much of a deep meaning. The main character is written pretty badly so that affected the mr Stanton acting. Its cheesy, undpredictable and not believable. As for about mr Lynch's acting it's just god awful. From the beginning till the very end you wait when the movie to start, but it never happens. This flick is about nothing as the actors say it themselves. Usually it's not a problem when there's something else to compensate the lack of the good script. But this movie is just blend, uninspired, corny, empty.
Sensível. Cheio de vida. Atuação magistral. Vale a pena conferir.
Last movie one actor films is always a sad occasion even if that actor lives to be over 90 as Harry Dean Stanton did. This fact represent the main quality of ''Lucky'', a painfully slow story about the 91-year old atheist starting nowhere and leading us there. Long cuts, wide frames will mimic the spirit of ''Paris, Texas'' but in an empty way, as so will the vague and disdainful dialogues of the other characters irritate the mind of even a beyond average viewer. ''Lucky'' is the last movie of a really great actor and nothing more than that.
Harry Dean Stanton portrayal of old age and the fear of dying that might come with it was natural and honest, I could see my late grandfather through his performance so it was an emotional experience for me.Lucky found joy again by accepting reality as it is instead of worrying about it till the inevitable end. In his own way, he started living again by making his peace with it. This is a wonderful gem about wisdom, a remarkable debut for John Carroll Lynch as a director and Stanton's most heartfelt legacy.
