LUCKY

     COLIN HANKS  ARI GRAYNOR  ANN-MARGARET  JEFFREY TAMBOR

BEN (HANKS) HAS JUST WON THE STATE LOTTERY, MEETS, DATES AND MARRIES HIS CHILDHOOD FRIEND LUCY (GRAYNOR), LIVES WITH HIS MOM PAULINE (MARGARET) AND IS BEING INVESTIGATED BY DETECTIVE WAYLON (TAMBOR).  BEN ALSO HAS A LITTLE SECRET: HE IS A SERIAL KILLER.
LUCKY IS A VERY DARK COMEDY.  THE PERFORMANCES ARE GREAT, ESPECIALLY HANKS AS BEN, WHO HAS CREATED A VERY QUIRKY CHARACTER, AND GRAYNOR AS LUCY, WHO DELIVERS MOST OF THE COMEDY IN A VERY STRANGE BUT LIKABLE WAY.  THE STORY, WHILE SOMEWHAT FAR FETCHED, IS WELL WRITTEN AND STAYS WITHIN THE FRAMEWORK OF WHAT IS LAID OUT IN THE MOVIE.  FINALLY, WHILE THIS IS A COMEDY, YOU SHOULD ALSO BE AWARE THAT IT DOES DEAL WITH A SERIAL KILLER AND THEREFORE HAS SOME SCENES THAT ARE NOT VERY FUNNY, ALTHOUGH NOTHING IS TOO GRAPHIC OR GORY. 
RATING  3 out of 5
