Your Lucky Day maybe seems like a pretty standard hostage scenario film, stand-off with police, etc. But it’s really not. It has a POINT and a point of VIEW. I have to hold back on how many times I reference George Orwell, because if I didn’t control it, he’d probably be referenced in 9 out of 10 things I write. But this one I HAD to bring him in. I reviewed for Ebert. I was really impressed with this.
