Movie synopsis
Director Curtis Hanson (L.A. CONFIDENTIAL, WONDER BOYS) raises the stakes and takes on Las Vegas in LUCKY YOU. Huck Cheever (Eric Bana) plays poker for a living, using every opportunity that arises in daily life to hone his skills and test the odds. He is fueled by both a compulsion to win and the desire to do better than his father, L.C. Cheever (Robert Duvall), who is a championship poker player. Huck's skills come naturally, but he lacks patience. When he meets Billie Offer (Drew Barrymore), an earnest, honest girl from Bakersfield pursuing her dream of being a singer, he sees the possibility of a real relationship for the first time. But Huck's habits are hard to break, and he'll have to make some changes if he wants to make this relationship work.Barrymore is sweet as Billie, but it is the relationship between Huck and his father that moves the story along. Huck harbors ill feelings towards L.C. from his childhood--feelings that are complicated by his burning desire to best his father at poker. Bana effectively shows the animosity Huck feels towards his father with subtle changes to his facial expression and body language, and Duvall actually makes the hard-nosed L.C. likable. Ultimately, the real star of this movie is poker. Throughout the film, it's the strategies and bets, the flops and the rivers, that draw the viewer in. Professional poker players served as consultants and extras in the film, lending authenticity to the World Series of Poker where father and son face off. Debra Messing plays Billie's sister, Horatio Sanz is Ready Eddie, who can turn any situation into a bet, and Robert Downey Jr. appears all too briefly as Huck's friend.

Editorial reviews

"Mr. Hanson's style is relaxed and observant; he is more interested in watching his characters than in hurrying them through the plot..."
New York Times - A. O. Scott (05/04/2007)

3 stars out of 5 -- "Duvall and Bana spark off each other perfectly....The real star, however, is Hanson's Vegas, a seedy, grubby world that exists in a different universe from the Sin City of the Ocean's films."
Empire - Helen O'Hara (11/01/2007)

Nice Dynamic Between Father And Son

Review For: Lucky You (DVD, 2007)

I will say I think Drew Barrymore is under used in this movie. I never thought there was much chemistry between Barrymore and Bana. I did like the scenes with Duvall and Bana. I really bought into how Bana's character grows up during the course of the movie. I don't play poker so I can comment on the authenticity of the movie but I love the whole family dynamic between the two males leads. There is also a nice cameo by Robert Downey Jr.

Lucky You

Review For: Lucky You (DVD, 2007)

I actually forgot about this movie until I was reading an old Cardplayer magazine and saw the ad and decided to buy it. I found it at one of the big books stores and it was $28, bought it on ebay for $7. It is a good movie, better than I expected it to be. I liked how they worked in some of the wild bets between players that I have read about in other books. Living in a hotel restroom for 30 days, playing golf and some other wild bets. If you enjoy poker it worth the time to check it out.

GREAT MOVIE RECOMMENDED TO EVERYONE!

Review For: Lucky You (DVD, 2007)

I decided to buy this movie because it dealt with poker. I really liked how they used real poker players and a real poker room set to make the movie. They did such a good job with the movie and the story and I would recommend this movie to anyone especially someone who likes poker.
