I was disappointed to see that Sam didn't adopt the little girl herself or went back to the world as it was still filled with bad luck and used her skills to overcome the challenges of not being lucky. The vague message of "you need some bad in your life, not only good luck" is quite shallow when you don't actually explore the serious challenges that brings and don't show people that you can make it in life even if luck is not on your side.

oh no.... IM GETTING EMOJI MOVIE HUMAN VIBES THE WAY THE HUMANS LOOK

One extra thing if the opening scene hasn't already been shot to death enough, but the little girl decided to bring a green hat to a green screen...

She was supposed to be barely 18?? I thought she was like, late 20s at best!!! I saw a lot of portions of this movie as facebook reels with no continuity.

5:56 I love that they’re even ankle socks, which are so hidden by most shoes that they don’t even _need_ to match. xD

Luck is just the apple version of wish and that is not a good thing.

Ngl, if you want a fun main character whose gimmick is having very bad luck, Milo from Milo Murphy's Law is one good example of that. What I like about him in comparison to Sam is that he simply got used to his awful luck, and because of that he comes up with really fun solutions while the scenarios themselves are getting wackier by the minute.

This movie had a lot of potential in my opinion. I was really excited when the first trailers came out, because Sam could've been relatable for the audience, it involved elements of luck in different cultures, and the visuals were stunning. But now, knowing how plain the plot and characters are, and having the director's background issue had discouraged me to even give it a try. Certainly a loss of opportunity in the animation world

Luck had latvia mentioned, immediately +1 point

The movie IS Mid but I’ve seen it twice which is more than some newer Disney films. It’s so all over the place! It hinges on AI prompt that was just barely smoothed out by a human. Also “Sam and Cat” got me lol

Making a movie about luck was their first mistake

I have a dark theory on why Sam's bland nature, she has a cynical view in life because she is an alternative version of Meg from Family Guy. Meg had enough that she run away or been confiscated but her bad experience from Griffin cause her to be cynical that became unlucky Sam

The concept of bad luck| good luck was done better in Just my luck! I was sad for the guy, played by Chris pine (He was great in the movie, same in RIse of the guardians!) He was trying to help a rock group being successful and giving a better life to his sister. He's a really nice person! The lucky girl too and it was nice seeing her strugle with bad luck, she did her best to survive despite her problems (Her appartment was floded, she almost DIES because a hairdryer explode, she was send to jail, she falls on a mud sculpture etc.) The romance was well done too! Both characters spend time to know each other, it was cute 🥰

One thing I don't like about shamrocks and leprechauns as luck symbols is that "The luck of the Irish" was used to discredit all of the achievements of Irish folks in the United States.

3:42 This is a stupid thing to fixate on, but why does this kid have a Dala horse in her collection? I've never heard that they're supposed to be lucky-- the stories I heard growing up were mostly about how they magically grew in the night and took kids on an adventure. Usually they have to escape trolls which try to grab the horse by the tail, but it's just painted on so the horse and kid escape. It's magic (for kids, grown-ups just think they look neat) but it's not lucky.

And to think my family decided to watch this movie instead of a ghibli movie

heres a better reason for why there has to be a balance of good and bad luck: without suffering there can be no joy. the human mind is conditional and adaptive, and if it adjusts to just constant joy, it all becomes numb and boring. movie probably didnt think about this so its still bad lol

I saw your thumbnail and instantly assumed I had missed a Disney movie or something, only to realize that's impossible.

No one really talks about it but I really hate the dance they do. They really tried to make a new trendy dance for the kids to do but it’s failed miserably.

A very meh movie. I only watched it because an actor I liked played in it, and I still had low expectations that of course weren't surpassed. It didn't feel like it brought anything new or original, the characters' expressions were mediocre even though the voice actors did a great job with what they were given, and the ending just felt so patronizing to me. Watching it after two years of a pandemic and being told "We need bad luck because it teaches us things" made me wanna barf. Mediocrity and surface level at their finest.

the style reminds me of the Jehovah's witness cartoons.

The growing out of the orphanage is something that the social workers have to do. They can't just let her out into the world without help, so they tell her that in order to keep her fully furnished apartment, she has to work and/or stay in school. That's not luck; that's the bare minimum because she has no one else to help her.

"we're still on our way to 1k"?! Dude i just watched 4 of your videos back to back, what do you mean your channel is itty bitty, absolutely not. please keep making content, i beg. i love your style immediately.

Milo Murphy's law is a nice little series centered around a similar ”someone with very bad luck” idea. I liked it.

the character designs are so... forgettable, too. i like how the dragon looks i guess, but i just really like dragons, its hard to mess up a dragon (though still possible). also the humans eyes look WEIRD and i dont actually know why, but they do.

They could have done like an inside out kind of scene where she reminisces on times when she had really bad luck and was sad and was comforted by her friends and how it made their relationships stronger or something. Like when Riley fumbled the hockey match and her friends and family came to comfort her and brought some joy out of the sadness. Another angle could have been her being super pessimistic and annoyed but gaining skills in being resourceful because of her bad luck and then pairing her with a character who only had good luck but has become incompetent in difficult situations because they’ve never had to adapt or overcome anything. The message could have been that through hard work and struggle comes innovation, or that learning and growing comes through failure and hard work. Or it could have been about how good and bad luck are all about perspective and there could have been a scene where she was talking with the little girl and said something along the lines of “all my life I thought I was unlucky, but really I’m very lucky because everything that’s happened to me led to me meeting you and I wouldn’t change it for the world” or something. Bam three luck based messages that you can actually wrote a story around

I feel like this movie could have had a lot of good potential, I think it was a shoe-in for a good moral lesson, like something along the lines that sometimes you have bad luck but that's okay blah blah blah life keeps going on and you have to work with it sort of thing... *But we didn't get that-* I have to say though my hopes were not high for this movie when I saw the poster, and I know this sounds weird, but I'm telling you, when the poster looks boring, or bad, or feels like something is missing, then the movie *might* not be very good.

The vibe I got from the teaser trailer was that this was gonna be a grounded movie about someone getting luck powers, but this? This is just every other down-the-rabbit hole adventure, only with clashing aesthetics and the absolute vaguest magic system.

I liked Luck when I saw the trailer ‘cause I was like, “omg! A black cat that usually represents bad luck represents good luck in this movie!” I love cats so this made me happy. I was also hoping for this to be similar to the show Milo Murphy, but it wasn’t.

4:30 That animation and music reminds me of "Hallo aus Berlin", which is a terrifying German-learning show.

Omg what?? I love the cat design haha, basically the only thing drawing me to the movie 😂

Huh, I didn't know the movie even had a factory-like setting to explain what creates all the luck in the world. It does come off as Pixar-esque, considering they made Monsters Inc. and Inside Out. Even then, those two movies established their setting in the opening minutes, and several functions are shown rather than told if they're not critical to the story (Screams=Power and the importance of memories, respectively, are outright told to the audience, but not a lot else is). In Luck's case, it seems they wanted to do a similar setting, but only explored it partway through the film, and even looking at the clips you showed I don't know what purpose any of the offices or machinery serve (unless it was in exposition you skipped). Like any bad rip-off, it took similar imagery but missed the point of why it was there in the first place.

Bro I literally had to watch this in math class because the class got a free day 😭 I was so happy that I got to leave early

i just found your channel and i love your videos a lot, but god the tomodachi life music is heartbreaking after i effed up my 2Ds during cleaning and reassembly last weekend😭... saving up for a new one... and subbing!

“Luck” over Disney’s “Wish” any day

Ok but I laughed so hard at the part where the cat admits that he has a different accent. I couldn’t believe the movie did that

So if someone passes by and witnesses a thief about to break into a home therefore stopping the thief from breaking into the home, what would clogging the bad luck do? Seeing the thief is bad luck for the thief but good luck for the home owner. Not seeing the thief is good for the thief, bad for the home owner. I don't think it is possible for either forms of luck to disappear from the world. One person's bad luck can be another person's good luck.

4:40 my man just picked up a globe from the backrooms

The idea was neat, as proven by countless other "Bad luck" characters like Inspector Gadget, Milo Murphy even that guy from the Naked Gun movies. The world of Luck had a neat history and set up, and they did nothing really with it. I still annoyed how quickly they went over the bad luck world, as if they were doing a speed run of a game. Seriously a major part of the story was how bad the MC's luck always was. Be nice if we found out a reason, like some one in the bad luck world hated her, the machine was broke or something.

Your oc and there movements are really good and so is your review, also your underrated

This is the first time I've seen the LIKE button glow with a rainbow effect right when you said "like it" at the end and I was just mousing over to do so. Like the video. :)

Woah, why is this channel so underrated! These videos are adorable.

You are so underrated omg! I'm subscribing definitely

the only thing making me believe we could rewrite the movie is simply because there is a cat

I can think up a 'decent lesson' in like a few seconds 'No-one would feel lucky if there wasn't anything to balance it' aka 'good luck would cease to exist without bad luck' Like imagine them trying to erase all the bad luck, and then things start to go haywire That couldda been a thing for the movie (it needs to pick a plot though, if you wanna use 5 ideas, make a sequel or some shorts, not a big mess that fights with itself) Honestly, the start of her 'independent life' shouldda been something like - applies to 100s of different jobs - doesn't get any - tries again - she fumbles interviews, is late, her alarm breaks, etc etc. - she learns to prepare for these inconveniences - gets a job, gets fired because of more unlucky incidents - multiple times - but Eventually she's simply learned to be prepared enough that she manages to overcome the bad luck. Well, for the most part. It still happens, it still slows and wears her down. She's not happy, but she tires to hold herself the best she can. If not for herself, then for others. (And Obviously she herself does not notice this. To herself she just thinks she's hopelessly unlucky no matter what) This is just how life is, she needs to live with it, even if it's sucky (these thoughts are not mentioned, it's a 'lesson/fact' to be learned later) - and she wishes bad luck didn't exist -- And All of that has just been a few minute montage. It shows her bad luck & her learning to deal with it, BUT we're not told she's learned directly, the character herself does not acknowledge she's learned. It's just routine, how things are, and she's so very tired of everything. Something like that I need sleep But eh, them's just some thoughts

Okay, quick script doctor on this; Lesson can be about making your own luck. Maybe the magical beings can only somewhat influence scenarios, but it's how we view and react to them that makes the difference. This can also tie in with Sam having the good luck of having a home and a job handed to her, and using that luck to give her own luck to someone else who needs it; the other orphan girl who needs a home. That way the movie concludes with them writing their own destinies rather than subjecting themselves to the whims of superstition. It would also be a decent character arc for the main character Sam to change her viewpoint from pessimistic to optimistic as she learns to roll with the punches and become more adaptable to the situations around her as the story goes on, as well as carrying over those life lessons and experience into raising her newly adopted child. That's just my thoughts, though.

Nice video! Your art style is really cute and your content gives off some good vibes. Keep it up!

Wow, just found this channel Been loving your videos so far😊😊 I thought this movie would be sort of like 'Milo Murphys Law' but oh well a girl can dream 😅

as soon as you mentioned a movie about luck I'm wishing for a Lucky Penny movie :'3

carrie: "jerry the leprechaun, babe the dragon and jeff the-" me: "killer?" carrie: "unicorn"

I mean, Whoopi Goldberg is in it too. She's a legend-- but she's barely in it 3:14 Who says someone's full name like that-- just say Sam, there are no other Sams around-- she's probably the only Sam you know at all. I feel like they did that just for exposition... which was unnecessary, it's actually more work if you give your character a last name.

I wanna know your other project your gonna do since your underrated not gonna lie😄🕶️😎✨

I thought this video was gonna be an analysis on videogame luck lol

I think the possible lesson is that when bad luck comes you should be optimistic still I think it could be something else.

"Good idea, lisa, where did I put that broom?" *Picks up a whole ah globe* "That's not it"

Ok... I thought it was a video about Disney "Wish" movie, because of how similar these main characters look...

bob's teeth make me uncomfortable why does he look so human?

2:20 HELP THE AMOG US EYES

- Now, where did i put the broom? * picks up the globe * - That’s not it.

the acting issue has got to be a directorial issue because Eva Noblezada (who plays Sam) is an insanely talented actress who has originated multiple roles on Broadway. Either that or they only did one take for each delivery

okay but game idea: its could be set anywhere but bassicly your a cat and you must travle around the world fuguring out your purpose in life and the way you do is ny reliving your past 8 lives. during the game your choices could lead you to accept your last life and live it out to the fullest or go down a dark past trying to gain immortality or summ like that

"woah i see you really added to your collection" this has the feel of the first customer in little shot of horrors

Your videos are so underrated lol i thought you had like half a million subs or something before seeing the actual count wth

Honestly I liked luck and how it showed a the background something that other movies don’t push on much and the unlikely friendship with Sam and bob ❤

At 8:20 theres a Id that has A113 (The exact one that comes up through the pixar movies) Probably John Ratzenberger directed this for a little gag.

this movie could have tried to play onto themes of freewill. like if luck is real, what does that say about us & our descission making? if that orphan got adopted would it be because she deserved it or was a genuinley good fit for the household or just because she was arbituarily "lucky" some intresting themes & could be a good way to introduce this kinda thinking to a younger audience lol. i like how you drew little art of the characters too btw. even though you didnt like any of them much you doing that made me oddly happy lol

a lot of this movie feels like it was built more on spite than genuine talent I also want to point out that during the last few scenes, my brain went into Tom Servo mode, and I was just internally screaming "END!!!! END!!!!!!" for ten straight minutes...

every single character's eyes also give me immense anxiety

The trailer I saw for Luck looked promising to a small degree for me. When I saw the movie, the only thing I could see in my head when I heard "luck" was the purple and green glitter flying everywhere. It would have been cool to see Sam use her bad luck to fix good luck, but that never happened. I was also hoping that the cat would play the part of a good luck guide. Not an actual guide. And when she dressed up as an elf... just... how did no one realize she was human when they send agents to the HUMAN world. Why do they send them?? No idea. That could've played a part, but it never did. It was just "oh yeah, that's a thing. Moving on." There could have been much more done.

I liked this movie I don’t think it’s that bad I think it’s kind of wholesome and honestly as a former orphan myself lucky being forced to leave the orphanage got me in my feels because I’ve seen many friends of mine turn 18 and have to leave the orphanage anyway other than that nothing really interested me

Your oc is so cute!

I think the KZfaq algorithm is blessing your channel

10:04 the captain is giving il dottore vibes frfr

A friend a work wouldn't be worried about not finding a matching pair of socks as she only wears odd socks.

This movie doesn't deserve such a hot dragon

why is NO one talking about eva noblezada being in the cast list. SHE WAS ON BROADWAY???

i also laughed at the cheese sandwich, it was so unexpected

8:20 the fabled A113!

THAT ENGLISH VIDEO CLIP THO The fact he has to pick up a globe and stare at it to register that it's not a broom I'm crying

The fact That Sam's whole problem is not Luck based but because she has an extreme Skill Issue is the only funny thing in this movie

The definition of an antagonist in literature is the opposing force that the main character, also known as the protagonist, faces.

What's the song you used at the beginning of the video?

I don't understand why everyone Why everyone wanted her to adopt the child? She was literally just 18 and barely had the financial situation to probably sit there and support herself. That's why she couldn't adopt the kid. But other than that, that, it was yeah, pretty much a trash movie.

How dare they have such a good dragon in a mediocre movie

I'll say what I said on another review of luck: the 2009 Garfield show had a better luck episode, and they should've went with that. Here's a quick rewrite of the plot. It's a bit cliché, but at least it has a purpose: 1) Sam suffers from persistent, *actual* bad luck. She's understandably glum about it, it's been going on "forever". 2) Sam somehow meets a luck managing staff, goes to luckworld, yadda yadda... acquires a lucky charm. Probably upsetting the balance of luck (but she don't know that!). 3) With the charm in hand and ludicrously positive luck, her life turns around for the best! 4a) However, the lucky charm seem to work by siphoning the luck of others around Sam (up to the luck of everyone else in the world), because now they have terribly bad luck. 4b) Bad people start to get suspicious of Sam and want her luck/gains. 5) Sam realizes can't keep skewing luck to her favor, for her sake and that of her friends. She learns she has to endure through bad luck and enjoy good luck when it happens. The best one can do in situations out of their control is to stay optimistic and instead focus on what they can do. 6) Sam returns the lucky charm. Her luck turns bad again, but her friends' luck turns better again. 7) Despite bad luck making her lose her previous gains, she stays hopeful that things will get better and she's happy her friends are happy. Maybe she get a little good luck, as a treat.

7:50 oh my god don't you love the moment in a movie where the main character finds a isekai portal? "Holy smokes, the cat i chased for no reason just jumped into a magic portal! I totally have to disregard my safety and jump into it so i can go on a magical adventure and experience some corny character arc that'll turn me into a better person! Wahooo!" It's so stupid lol

this movie looks and feels like a really long short film, honestly

9:43 Sing looking ah pigs💀

As someone who has never seen this movie, I have some good things to say about it - The ginger leprechaun looks cute. Some of the other character designs look cute too. - The dragon has a a nice design (but she low-key reminds of the dragon from Shrek). - And Bob the cat seems like a cool guy. It's a little disappointing to see this movie didn't perform well (based on Carrie's reaction and general reviews). Luck seems like it had a lot of potential. It would be nice to see a movie that isn't pre-existing IP, like a reboot or spin-off, succeed on streaming or in the box office.

10:10 insert phines and ferb candace flee market clip

2:19 hehe, they did the among us eyes

pooks what is the outro song I’ve been looking for it everywhere😭

The thumbnail didn't load, and i just saw the title and thought, "Oh yeah, beung lucky ain't fun," and theb realised that it was about th film

Wait this movie came out 2 years ago this year? And was reviewed a year ago? Hell, this movie was forgettable before i knew it came out. I only saw the trailer once.

only part i can remember and like from this movie is the dilf (dragon id like to f-)

When the little girl said, "You sure have bad luck, Sam Greenfield." I completely gave up on this movie being anything better than passable because who talks like that?

I remember watching the _penny in the toilet scene_ . It was... not good.

I thought this was a disney movie😭

I thought there would be something like 'Why does Sam seem to have an extra and crazy amount of bad luck' but... No lol

When I first saw the movie smi was very positive ! I thought this would be an interwsting story about girl's life of misfortune turning around after finding a magical coin. But as some point in the movie she looses it and is adraid dverything she built up now will cruble apart that people will turn away from her now, only to find people she made firends with like her with or without luck buutt..then it was turned into some weird boss baby/stork mocie 😂
