I like heist movies. But I wasn't sure about the odd group of people involved and the over the top accents. However, those concerns were unfounded. This movie was lots of fun. I find myself getting in the mood to watch it time and time again.
Finally I'd like to say "Did you just say cauliflower to me?" Lol.

A Surprisingly Warm Comedy

The advertising for “Logan Lucky” includes the advertising slogan, “See how the other half steals,” and much of the publicity emphasizes the picture is directed by the filmmaker responsible for the popular heist comedy “Ocean’s 11.” The suggestion is that “Logan Lucky” is a sort of distaff “Ocean’s 11,” featuring unsophisticated rural Southerners instead of glib and glamorous Las Vegas wiseguys.
And while that description is not exactly inaccurate, it’s also not quite to the picture itself. The difference is in the picture’s sense of warmth: Far from satirizing his cast of characters, director Steven Soderbergh actually embraces them, and in the process creates a oddly heartwarming comedy in which the audience finds itself rooting against the traditional good guys, in favor of a demographic which usually doesn’t receive much of a break in the popular American lexicon.
“Logan Lucky” details the adventures of an unemployed West Virginia construction worker who, at the end of his financial rope, hatches a scheme to rob the massive Charlotte Motor Speedway during the popular annual Coca-Cola 600 NASCAR race. And in order to carry off the heist, the would-be master criminal needs to recruit the most colorful group of accomplices this side of Mayberry…or “Deliverance.”
Written by Rebecca Blunt—thought to be a pseudonym for either the director’s wife or Soderbergh himself—the script renders most of the characters underwritten, incomplete, and lacking in motivation. But instead of being a detriment to the picture, the absence of character complexity works in the movie’s favor, allowing a remarkably talented group of players the additional space to inhabit their characters more fully.
Led by the baleful and laconic Channing Tatum as the unemployed and desperate Jimmy Logan, some of the actors invest their roles so successfully that you’ll have trouble recognizing even a few of the more familiar faces.
Among those who all but vanish into their characters are Sebastian Stan, from the Marvel “Captain America” series of pictures, as a member of the Logan Gang, and country music legend Dwight Yoakum as a prison warden. And even two-time Academy Award-winning actress Hilary Swank turns up relatively late in the game, as a straight-as-an-arrow FBI agent trying to crack the credibility-straining heart of the caper.
In the meantime, the entire cast works together beautifully. Particularly noteworthy are Adam Driver, sporting an accent which leans more toward Missouri than West Virginia as Jimmy’s partially-disabled Gulf War veteran brother Clyde, and a ridiculously funny Daniel Craig as the gang’s demolitions expert, the appropriately-named Joe Bang. If the usually dour and humorless Craig is capable of this kind of relaxed and engaging comedy performance, it’s no wonder he reportedly feels restricted by his association with the phenomenally popular James Bond series of pictures.
It’s tough to not like a picture in which part of the main character’s unlikely motivation as a criminal is to be a better parent to his daughter. And despite the more colorful, exciting, and sometimes even nail-bitingly suspenseful elements of the plot, the emotional climax of “Logan Lucky” is actually the daughter’s serenading her father with an off-key rendition of John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Road.” Better yet, the scene works.
“Logan Lucky” depends somewhat on the audience’s playing along with its unlikely scenario from the first scene until the picture’s enormously satisfying conclusion, but that’s easy to do in a picture as friendly and eager-to-please as this one. The last scene seems to leave a door open for a sequel. Soderbergh’s “Ocean’s 11” spawned “Ocean’s 12” and “Ocean’s 13.” Let’s hope that “Logan Lucky” can also spread around some of that good fortune.

I love this movie and the director. If you enjoy his work on the ocean's series then you will definitely enjoy this movie as well. It has the same feel and tone and twists and the acting is great.

The premise was good - sort of a "Redneck Oceans 11." The film is even well-acted by several high quality performances from Daniel Craig and Riley Keough. Unfortunately, the pacing is too slow and the film falls flat in its overall delivery. The comedic elements just don't come off as funny as they should. It's not a bad film, but it definitely not good either.

This is a really funny film with some amazing star turns in this fantastic cast. 4K with HDR makes it visually stunning to strengthen the plot and gag lines.

Logan a Lucky Surprise

If you are a fan of the rebooted "Ocean's Eleven" series, directed by Steven Soderburgh and starring a full house of Hollywood heavyweights, then you might get into this country bumpkin cousin--an amiable heist film set in the rural hills of West Virginia and North Carolina, starring Channing Tatum, Adam Driver, and an off-the-rails Daniel Craig. Tatum and Driver are the brothers Logan, part of a clan famous for being unlucky. Life seems to happen to them, which might explain why they decide to get even by robbing the Charlotte Speedway during a NASCAR race. Their plan incorporates the Bang family, led by Craig, who are religious bumpkins who like blowing things up, and the brothers' sharper-than-a-razor sister Mellie, played with sass by Riley Keogh. The execution of the plan riffs on the same vibes that Soderburgh used so well with Clooney and his crew in "Ocean's Eleven." Seth McFarlane, Dwight Yoakum, and Hillary Swank lend able support.
