"Lucky Them" isn't a great film, all told, but thanks to the good-natured performances and the general vibe, it's an immensely enjoyable one.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Nov 3, 2020

Lucky Them is an emotionally satisfying journey, subverting expectations of the charming road movie.
| Original Score: B | Jun 27, 2016
Lucky Them touches on the price of fame, and conjures up memories of Kurt Cobain, Jeff Buckley and Elliot Smith. But, more importantly, it's about those left behind and what they face in not knowing what happened to their loved ones.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Apr 27, 2016
A study of the perils of nostalgia, Megan Griffiths' Lucky Them itself comes off as a throwback to an earlier era of low-key, whimsical US independent cinema. This is not a bad thing, considering the talents of the cast.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 12, 2015
The plot executes an impressive twist at the end and Collette makes such a swashbuckler out of Ellie that you're inclined to indulge her in whatever she chooses to do.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 12, 2015
Griffiths helms the feature with low-key fondness and a lived-in atmosphere, the camera caressing the Seattle spaces the story calls home, and lingering lovingly over the more rural places Ellie and Charlie venture to.

[Collette] and co-star Thomas Haden Church elevate this no-frills but intelligent story into something well worth seeing.
| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Mar 6, 2015
Wachtel initially wrote the script for 온라인카지노추천, and it shows -- long-term plot lines are teased at, only to be swiftly resolved without the chance to play out.

Although I laughed several times at the cast's low-key humour, this isn't exactly new or daring material when films are desperately in need of fresh voices.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Mar 1, 2015
The undulating manner in which the relationships rise and fall is beautifully managed but it is Collette and Church who deliver gold

Has any movie made during the past 10 years not presented female journalists as sluts?
| Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 17, 2014
Collette showcases this mask of exasperation with subtle brilliance.
| Original Score: 8.7/10 | Jul 7, 2014
A diverting, if forgettable, romantic comedy.
| Original Score: B | Jul 3, 2014
Almost Almost Famous.
| Original Score: 3/5 | Jun 27, 2014
A clever, fun, and affecting romantic dramedy about love and rock-and-roll.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jun 27, 2014
This pleasant but eminently forgettable indie comedy is the sort of thing that makes you wonder whether the big names in the cast were having serious career problems, doing someone a favor, or just had a few weeks to kill.

A sort of distaff "High Fidelity," Megan Griffiths' slow-burn character comedy set in the Seattle music scene holds unexpected charms.
| Jun 13, 2014
"Lucky Them" has that rare gift: It leaves its audiences warm and happy, as the best romantic comedies do.
