Review of Lucky

Lucky (I) (2017)
A wonderful exploration of human realisation

Warning: Spoilers
Lucky proves that you don't need VFX and extraordinary plots in order for a film to be good. A simple, enlightening film that I would recommend anyone to see.

When one thinks about 'spiritual awakenings' - like so many people describe Lucky's narrative in plot descriptions - I immediately assumed Lucky would turn to religion and this would be the narrative. However, it's even more reductive than this. In the last shot Lucky stares at a cactus and smiles, this puts everything the film is about into perspective. A special film about life and the acceptance of fate, not to be missed.
