The skill of a film is not a luxurious lineup and incredible stunts, but ingenuity is the partner of skill, and you can express your skill with just one look. And luck is left to the right people at the right time and place. If you think too much about luck, the vulgar trap will no longer be far away.
It's not that we talk about skills and luck for no reason, but the context in the film repeatedly emphasizes these seemingly simple four words, but after all, it does not express its clarity and meaning.
The Chinese translation of "lucky you" is called Lucky God of Gamblers. As the name suggests, gambling is what it wants to express. Most of these films will attract people's attention, because too many people believe in miracles. But no one will pay for far-fetched miracles, which is the main reason why "lucky you" is not so popular.
To borrow a sentence from old Huck in the film: "You treat playing cards as life, but life as cards." Isn't this a good idea? I believe that the screenwriter and director want to tell stories in the conflicting life of the protagonist, but But it turned into a kind of indifference that the weather was so nice today.
The synopsis of "lucky you", a child who grew up in the shadow of a gambler's father when he was young, but his adult life trajectory is like a ghost, and he follows in his father's footsteps. Although he is talented and intelligent, his temperament is impulsive. became a real casino.
A chance encounter, a girl full of hope and pursuit for the future changed him. He knew that his real luck had come. As long as he paid attention to his skills, everything would become better than ever before. Change or escape?
The long-awaited World Series of Poker has begun, and his father is his strongest opponent. By defeating him, his long-cherished wish for many years has been fulfilled. Conquer yourself and start a happy life again. The choice is always fair, he chose and gave up, the story is over.
This is not a stimulating gambling film showing gambling skills and psychological dark battles. It is more about explaining the philosophy of life brought about by gambling, but it is a bit sloppy. Drew Barrymore, Eric Bana, and Robert Duvall's hard-working performances are no match for the vagueness of the plot. It seems that they are out of luck, and they really need to pay special attention to the skills the next time they choose a script.
Still borrowing the words of old Huck: "The key to winning is: wait and see." I did it, and the result was far from satisfactory.
Really going to give it a score, I guess it fails on mine.
