n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.

As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.

This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

This movie tries so hard to be funny, yet it falls flat every time. Just another example of recycled ideas repackaged with women in an attempt to appeal to a certain audience.

Lucky break is one of those rare movies that basically went straight to DVD and one you rent if you've got a coupon from Blockbuster. Pay the $3.00 bucks and you won't be disappointed. I found the story completely original and an unpredictable but great ending.*** out of 4P.S Watch the ending credits.

It is a nice change; the story was light and had a nice ending (a must in my opinion. The world has enough evil in it; I don't need that for my entertainment as well!) and even the violence was "ok" meaning, not too graphic. Cute movie.

"Lucky Break" is a romantic-comedy with the emphasis on comedy though it is understated and somewhat bland by Yankee standards. The flick is about a bunch of prison inmates who put together a stage musical play to appease their warden and provide cover for a prison break. The film has obvious parallels with "The Full Monty" though it is not quite as fresh or fun and the end is eminently predictable. "Lucky Break" is a fun romp, somewhat slow and a lot corny, which would be more at home on the BBC than the international commercial film market. (C+)Note - I shut my VHS of this flick off as soon as the credits rolled. Then having read the comment of another IMDB.com user, I went back and watched the credits which overlay a sort of visual epilogue tidying up loose ends. Thanks Cylex.

Hard to believe that this is from the team that brought us 'The Full Monty', it is embarrassing to think that this may be seen outside of England. Monotonously paced, it never gets out of first gear and there is scarcely a funny line during the entire film, let alone an original one.
