Absolutely the worst movie.

It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Logan Lucky is that kind of movie where you have solid performances but lacks good story , direction and excitement sources. The performance was good everybody did a great job Channing and Craig in patricular, but it was in vain as I really did't quite enjoy the scenes , the rob and almost everything was with no soul in it. That was supposed to be a story about a brilliant bank rob but it really made no sense in the end and how it ended and didn't deliver the message behind it. The poster of the movie may attract you as you feel it's a gang with style and a lot of action and style but it wasn't really in the movie. Overall don't was your time watching only a movie with average acting skills in vain!

This is a wonderfully put together movie about two brothers recruiting a team of misfits to pull off a rather large heist. This is a must-see for any family movie night.Purely from the angle of cinematography and breakdown of stereotypes, this movie was skillfully made. I was on the floor laughing during the scene where Jimmy and Clyde recruit the Bang brothers; it was especially funny to hear how "rednecks" would talk about computers.One of the overarching themes of the movie was family. Jimmy was trying to rob the Speedway because he wanted enough money to move closer to his ex-wife and daughter. While there were more honest ways to obtain that money, it was still heart-warming to see his brother and sister helping Jimmy out in his mission. Despite the fact that Jimmy doesn't share the money immediately with his siblings, they still trust him after he disappears. This shows the wonderful dignity of the human person by family treating family with respect, even though they couldn't understand his actions.While this is a funny movie with a heartwarming ending, the one cautionary thing about it is the fact that our main heroes are trying to rob a bank. However, the overall tone of the movie is fairly goofy, and thus the attitude of the director obviously tells us that this film isn't in support of grand heists or jail breaks.Overall, pretty great movie. 9/10

1.5 out of 5 stars (one of the worst movies of the year)I walked into Logan Lucky expecting to be entertained by a breezy crime comedy. Brought to us by Steven Soderbergh (the man behind the hit-and-miss Oceans trilogy), Lucky has the potential to be in that vein; fast, funny dialogue combined with charismatic performances. Unfortunately, Luck is not in the cards this time, as I witnessed a film turn from vaguely interesting to completely banal over the course of its criminally bloated running time. I went into the film expecting a fun ride (especially given the unbelievably high critical reception), but came out having sat through a cinematic endurance test.The story follows Jimmy and Clyde Logan (an unconvincing Channing Tatum and Adam Driver), two brothers who attempt to rob a NASCAR speedway after life throws them bad hands. I can only guess their reasons for doing this are monetary, as Jimmy was just laid off his construction job for ridiculous reasons, and Clyde is easily convinced. I don't know their motivation behind this because the movie chooses to indulge in frustratingly irrelevant conversations in place of character development early on, a warning sign I seriously should have heeded.Anyway, since Clyde and Jimmy are as adept at robbery as I am about paying taxes, they enlist the help of "quirky" inmate Joe Bang (an embarrassingly stoned-looking Daniel Craig) and his dimwitted associates on the outside. They will have to break Joe out of the prison, pull off the heist, and get him back in before anyone notices. Interspersed with this are unnecessary scenes of Jimmy being a good dad to his daughter (Newcomer Farrah Mackenzie) who has a beauty pageant coming up. Because I totally want to see a little girls' beauty pageant in the middle of my summer heist movie. Don't you?This movie has gained a lot of press for being the supposedly triumphant return of Steven Soderbergh after he announced retirement a few years ago. If this is what he came out of retirement for, then I suggest he return to it immediately. His camerawork is overindulgent to the point of hilarity, filling the movie with shots that last forever and serve no purpose to the story. For example, one shot sees Jimmy walking down a street and drinking some water, following him as if something big or important will occur, but nothing does. Other instances include needless shots of NASCAR vehicles before a big race (that take up about 3 minutes), and one embarrassingly odd shot of Daniel Craig drinking water from a faucet like a horse for 2 and a half minutes. A director can only do as well as the script they're given, but this film needed about 45 minutes left on the cutting room floor. I'm not saying it would have been a good movie, but it certainly would have been less painful.Lastly, the performances here are absolutely forgettable. Channing Tatum and Adam Driver lack brotherly chemistry and sound bored out of their minds. Craig (who has somehow received acclaim for his performance) has never been worse than he is here. His accent is cartoonishly overdone and his delivery becomes steadily irritating. Everyone who thought he was awful in Cowboys & Aliens(which I actually liked) will be apologizing for that after this disaster.Logan Lucky completely shatters its potential as a fun summer flick by a bloated running time, unengaging performances, and an unfocused script that strands its normally dependable players in a sea of mediocrity. Count yourself Lucky I took this bullet, dear reader, for now, you won't have to.Rated PG-13 for Language and, I cannot believe I have to write this, Some Crude Comments. Crude comments? Really?

When Cohen brothers make a film, it seems as if its plot is secondary - almost irrelevant. Because the true beauty of their unique style is the characters and the little moments they share on screen. Like a real life in a miniature: pointless and sometimes even absurd at each particular moment - but priceless when put together.Steven Soderbergh is no novice in the cinema business, with an established style of his own. But this time, it seems, he decided to approach his clearly beloved topic of high-profile heists (let's not forget that the Ocean's Eleven franchise is a child of Soderbergh's creation) and do it in a "characters first" way. So instead of the likes of George Clooney and Brad Pitt and their impeccable smiles we have a bunch of amateurish looking hillbillies from West Virginia, a divorced father who's been laid off lately, his one-armed (sorry, one-handed!) brother and a trio of other brothers who look as if Kid Rock is their style icon. Together they are gonna try to pull off a heist only an American would fully appreciate: stealing a ton of cash from the company organizing the NASCAR races.If the "characters first" approach was indeed the goal, then it worked out beautifully. Channing Tatum and Adam Driver are so natural as brothers that in some close-ups you start seeing an even physical resemblance between those two, no matter how far apart their real looks are. And Daniel Craig, looking like a German rave band frontman from the 90's and talking like a true backwoods dweller, is simply brilliant. I mean, if there was a cinematographic award for the most unlikely character transformation, then this "from Agent 007 to a hillbilly gangsta" switch would be the hands-down winner.But this is where all the "but"s start appearing. Because, after all those extraordinary gentlemen (and a few ladies to spruce up this team) finish introducing themselves and all their quirks are known, there's little Logan Lucky can offer to maintain the suspense and keep you involved. The heist itself is typical, its twists and turns may not be absolutely predictable but you definitely expect some second layer of events to reveal itself - and you get what you expected. The third act addition of Hilary Swank, a die-hard FBI investigator keen to put those responsible for the heist behind bars, does spice up things a little, but it's still not enough to make the film's final as intriguing as its opening."Ocean's 7-Eleven", a pun that the film makes of itself, is a nice way to describe Logan Lucky. A crime comedy without the high grades of pathos. But that pathos was actually essential to make Ocean's Eleven at least seem grand. Without it, the only thing left is some dudes trying to steal money in a quirky way. Yeah, the dudes were fun while it lasted, but the rest is the same old routine we've seen a hundred times. And no smoke screens or robotic hands could distract you enough to stop seeing that.
