Editorial Reviews

If you find your dad, what happens next? When she turns 18, unhappy Lidda Daniels leaves Southern California to look for Charlie, her father, a professional gambler who abandoned her years before. On her way to Vegas, she picks up Colonel, a video store clerk whom she finds attractive even though they've never spoken. He's is happy to go, in part because he sees himself as a great poker player. It takes Lidda time to track down Charlie, who's involved in his own tangles: he's freshly back in Vegas for high-stakes poker with Tony, an old nemesis. Tony is jealous of Charlie over a woman, plus Tony has a new habit of hiring a hit man to kill anyone who beats him. Can anyone win?

2.0 out of 5 stars this movie aint so lucky, February 25, 2005

This review is from: Luckytown (DVD)

The only reason I watched this movie is that I am a fan of Vincent Kartheiser (The Unsaid, Tv's Angel) and I have some doubts about the projects he does and this was one of them. It didnt come out the way I thought it would but Kartheiser and Kirsten Dunst (Spider-man 1 and 2, Eternal Sunshine Of The Spotless Mind) were cute together yet needing extreme sessions in theraputic help, I believe. James Caan (Dogville, Elf) plays Dunst's gambling father who left her when she was little. Luis Guzman (Double Whammy, Magnolia) who is fun to watch always plays Jimmy the hitman who doesnt kill on Valentines Day but ends up dying on Valentines Day, hmm. Not much here to work with only the fact that this builds up to a fueled down gun shootout at the end which was dumb and many annoying supporting cast. Dunst looks hot in that angel stripper wear. Caan later in 2003 stars in the hit tv series Las Vegas. That clever line "what goes on in Vegas, stays in Vegas" rings in the air in this movie but doesnt that line get boring after awhile
