Logan Lucky (2017)

Very disappointing...

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Fun and clever but nothing to write home about. Underutilized cast

I thought this was a pretty good movie, way better than I was expecting. Supposedly it tanked in the box office and got bad reviews all around so I went in with lowered expectations.The acting was pretty good from everyone. Nothing stood out to me as particularly bad. Daniel Craig has probably the best bit of acting, far from 007 for sure.The basic plot is "good" bad guys are introduced, plan is hatched, tense moments throughout execution of said plan - end results. Nothing we haven't seen before just done in a different setting.One thing I find irritating and doesn't have much to do with the movie but the poster I saw for this, the characters are all hanging out on a car with a pile of money indicating that whatever the movie was about they end up with the money OR it might have a twist too it, add to that the trailers are so long that it's hard not to see where the movie is heading before you even start watching. I see this with tons of other movies too and it bugs me.

The scenes felt heavy handed and went on too long in trying to make sure that everyone watching would understand what the scene was trying to say. Than was the biggest disadvantage. But at first I had expected that the working-class characters would fall into their designated stereotypes and we'd chug along to an easily-expected finish. Not so much. Actually, the characters were nicely filled out, there were stereotypes but not the ones I expected. Except Daniel, his character was filled with stereotypes. And who the hell did his hair cut? He looks like he is over 60.In general, it's a zany comedy about unremarkable characters punching well above their weight but through sheer luck managing to pull things off. In the last act that the film starts to feel a little played out. The introduction of Hillary Swank as a Special Agent in the last 20 minutes of the film feels a little rushed and ultimately doesn't really go anywhere. Instead, the story continues through a number of false endings, not entirely sure when to bring down the curtain. Overall, as the first feature to draw Soderbergh out of semi-retirement, Logan Lucky is clearly something he wanted to make and his passion comes through in the final product. Produced entirely on his own and without studio interference, Logan Lucky inverts the glamour and opulence of the Ocean's trilogy, but with losing the series' trademark quirks and high entertainment value. 5/10

A los que no nos gusta, pues no nos ha gustado, hablo en plural pero es a mí. Es una película muy especial. Tienes que entrar en ella o no te va a gustar y yo no entro en la película. Eso de que todo sea en tono comedia, no me va. No me puedo creer nada y entonces no me funciona.Los actores estarán estupendo, si entras, pero si no, es un conjunto de actuaciones excesivas.No me gusta la fotografía. Pero es que no entrando, no sé si la fotografía le va a la película, aunque a mí me parece demasiado clara y con mucha luz.No me gusta como dirige. No me gusta cómo pone la cámara. No entiendo por qué usa angular unas veces y otras no.Yo la he visto, porque hay que verlo todo pero no la recomiendo.Those of us who do not like it, we did not like it, I speak in the plural but it is me. It is a very special movie. You have to enter it or you will not like it and I do not go into the movie. That everything is comedy, I'm not going. I can not believe anything and then it does not work for me.The actors will be great, if you enter, but if not, it is a set of excessive performances.I do not like photography. But it is not entering, I do not know if the picture is going to the film, although to me it seems too clear and bright.I do not like how he directs. I do not like how he puts the camera. I do not understand why he uses angular sometimes and not others.I've seen it, because you have to see everything but I do not recommend it.
