Logan Lucky - Rating: * * *

I have been sitting on this review for a few weeks now. I have kept trying to go back and write it but after days of trying to review Logan Lucky I found myself with very little to say about it. That is not me saying it is a bad film it is just here is nothing that new here that got me thinking anything major about it.  It is a heist film. It is a heist film that takes the same storyline we have seen a million times before and does it again with slightly different characters.

How many times have we seen a group of people down on their luck after losing their job who decide to steal from their former employers to get 'what is owed to them'. It is fine, it is a perfectly good plot device but you know the outcome. They hatch a plan, the plan almost goes wrong, they get the money, the police are dumbfounded and the robbers get away with it. 

Now while the story is the same the acting is actually what puts this film above others like it. Channing Tatum and and Adam Driver worked well as the brothers in arms, or arm in Driver's characters case, and 007 star Daniel Craig worked well as the unhinged bomber Joe Bang and he delivered some of the films funnier moments including the bomb in a carrier bag scene.

As a whole Logan Lucky is a fun watch. The acting is good,  the story, while following the usual traits, is well put together and as heist films go this is one of the better ones out there. Give it a go, let me know your thoughts
