"Realism is a thing". A remark made by the titular character - seamlessly portrayed by Harry Dean Stanton in his crowning swan song - that perfectly fits this movie. "Lucky" feels so naturally informed by life that you tend to forget how well-written it is. Its resonance is so grounded that even its comparatively bigger, more moving moments are unadorned and "small". Crucially, Lucky's character arc - his spiritual journey - is grand without being too complex. Or rather exactly because of that.

A terrific swan-song for Harry Dean Stanton, whose Lucky character is as entertaining to watch as the supporting characters. This film manages to be amusing and lightly philosophical without pretension or cliche, it's an endearing delight without avoiding dark subject matter.

This feels like watching the end of an era of Americana. Impermanence, Harry Dean Stanton, transience, and David Lynch's pet tortoise.

I liked the titular character, a somewhat curmudgeonly old man who isn't keen on other peoples attitudes and who is stubborn but yet is still, beneath it all, a decent guy, just trying to get by. Of course the fact that his name is Lucky is a bit ironic given not everything has gone his way. I suppose he's a bit of an underdog type character, which its often said Americans love. The film itself is quite understated but I enjoyed it regardless.

David Lynch has a monologue about a tortoise that will knock your socks off. Lucky is a great vehicle for Harry Dean Stanton, and the entire cast is packed with excellent character actors, fitting from a director who's a legendary character actor himself. Great acting and character work and a script with just enough strong moments

A few have said this felt forced. I didn't perceive that at all. Stanton is a frail 90 year old man. Based on what little I know about him, this is an autobiographical film. He has always played himself to a large degree, and that's what's made him great. He brings his own captivating and unique charisma. Lucky is no exception. If you're looking for a plot, look elsewhere. This is a story about finding peace in letting go of what you can't control and the fear and isolation that accompany it.

Harry Dean Stanton'un metaforlarla dolu son filmi. Tek başına yaşayan emekli askerimiz Lucky, bizim için şehir onlar için köy yaşamındaki rutinini anlatıyor. Ölüm kapısını çalmasa da hayatın sıkıcılığına gem vuruyor. Gıcık metaforlar. Yemişim sigarayı.

This contemplation of life, spirituality and mortality offers a funny, absurd, and very fitting conclusion to Harry Dean Stanton's long and storied career.

Directed by actor turned director John Carroll Lynch. 'Lucky' is one of Harry Dean Stanton's final screen roles and it's more than memorable. Stanton is old, tough and lucky. He must deal with his own mortality in day to day life in this interesting character study. Stanton's acting seems so real, he's no longer acting, he is Lucky. Stanton was made to play Lucky, wether he's acting or singing his performance is legendary. A great tribute to a great American actor.

If you like Harry Dean Stanton this is a great movie. If you dislike Harry Dean Stanton we can't be friends. Some of the details in the writing could feel contrived if they didn't feel so true to the central (non)performance. Most of them ARE true actually and this kinda functions as a poignant autobiography of sorts. A humble and heartbreaking tribute to "the greatest character actor of all time" and his cranky yet uplifting life philosophy at the brink of the end. Realism is a thing.

Nice, quirky, old man movie. Small town, nothing happens. David Lynch pops up. A bit of philosophical rumination and cigarette smoking. Strangely, I've had worse cinematic experiences. There must be some intangible life force in the fibres of this film.

in his first lead role since PARIS TEXAS, and his last, HDS plays a version of himself in a pastiche of his filmography, living his daily life PATERSON-style, shooting the shit while coming to terms with his impending mortality. he gets trapped by the clichéd, mawkish screenplay at times (the bar scenes suck), but he's a uniquely compelling presence to the last, not least when calling DEAL OR NO DEAL 'a convoluted piece of shit' - maybe the truest, most righteous sentiment in cinema last year.

not my taste. But did capture a good example of reaction of veterans from WWII. Also created a sense of dread about what might happen next. Lucky is a nice man but you don't know what he is going to do next.

An old man realizes he is old and has to figure out what that means to him. Harry Dean Stanton is fantastic as the grumpy, old guy and his interactions with his surrounding are sometimes absurd, sometimes very human, but always realistic and somewhat wise.

Feels a little bit forced sometimes, especially when it comes to the humor, but most of time it works. Stanton and Lynch are pretty cool and while the movie is kind of a stringing together of moments of reflection for Lucky, which is a bit repetitive, the moments themselves are quite powerful.
