Review of Luck

Luck (I) (2022)
7/10
A cute film for the kids
18 August 2022
As we grow older our perspective on certain things also evolves. The adult movies I used to watch as a kid now gained new meaning as I watch them from a different perspective, much like animated ones that used to be our jam now will seem a bit, well... Childish. The challenge is to create something that is engaging and just right for both the kids and their parents.

In Luck, our hero is an orphan who lived in the system her entire life and has anything but luck... Or a family. She is however deeply connected to the other kids in her home, so when she decides to intervene to try and send some luck to one of the kids who's up for adoption, madness ensues.

It's a deeply moving story filled with adventure and comedy from beginning to end. The characters are cute and well developed, but I'm afraid that overall this film will not entirely land with the adult audience, or even slightly older kids.

Their take on the world of Luck is sharp and engaging, it is well directed and it will definitely make you feel good. What I remind myself now as an adult is that I must step into these animated films with an open and slightly younger mind, one that allows one to dream and imagine the unimaginable in a world that has become so filled with hard truths.
