Lucky Ratings & Reviews
IndieWire
Eric Kohn
John Carroll Lynch, who's worked with everyone from Martin Scorsese to Albert Brooks, doesn't explicitly borrow from any of his directors, though it's clear from his careful precision that he learned a little something from all of them.
Detroit News
Adam Graham
More than anything, it's a tribute to Stanton, who wore each of his 91 years in the deep crevasses on his long face, in his weathered voice and on his frail frame.
Austin Chronicle
Kimberley Jones
You feel Lucky's frustration and gloom, how they burden him, without Stanton opening his mouth.
San Diego Reader
Scott Marks
A film comprised of first-rate actors, each given the opportunity to spin a yarn or two.
Washington Post
Stephanie Merry
Stanton, as "Lucky" reminds us, remained capable of carrying a movie even to the very end.
Chicago Reader
Leah Pickett
Tracing every step of Lucky's protracted daily routine becomes a powerful exercise in both empathy and discomfort as he ponders the meaning of life and the inevitability of death, without the balm of spirituality.
Chicago Tribune
Michael Phillips
The movie's small, and a little too tidy, but its devotion to ritual and routine nonetheless gives the actors room to maneuver.
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
It is, simply, a lovely time at the movies.
Arizona Republic
Bill Goodykoontz
"Lucky" is one of Harry Dean Stanton's last roles, a rare leading performance, and it is a treasure.
Observer
Rex Reed
Nothing big happens, but director John Carroll Lynch zeroes in on the undeniable pathos and hidden feelings in Mr. Stanton's map-lined face.

Leonard Maltin
Lucky is a remarkable film, a living testament to the talent and formidable screen presence of the late Harry Dean Stanton. I think we are the lucky ones to have such a beautiful film to remember the actor by.
The New Republic
Christian Lorentzen
Lucky never reaches for the tragic. It's about the grim absurdity of old age and death as anticlimax.
RogerEbert.com
Matt Zoller Seitz
The humblest deep movie of recent years, a work in the same vein as American marginalia like Stranger Than Paradise and Trees Lounge, but with its own rhythm and color.
The Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Even it weren't arriving immediately after his death at the age of 91, this effortlessly moving portrait would be a milestone in Stanton's career ...
Los Angeles Times
Justin Chang
The movie nurtures a quiet sense of mystery, content in the knowledge that neither an upbeat mind-set nor a cruel, nihilistic one can really capture the full experience of life as it's lived.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
Lucky is an elegiac and ultimately affirming meditation on mortality, regret, and smiling through hardship. You couldn't ask for a more poignant swan song from a more singular artist.
Wall Street Journal
John Anderson
When Mr. Stanton sings a song near film's end, at a child's birthday, in Spanish, it's more spectacular than the parting of the Red Sea.
Uproxx
Keith Phipps
[Harry Dean Stanton] gets a last starring role in a bittersweet sunset of a movie crafted as a tribute to everything that made him irreplaceable. It's well-earned and beautifully played.
Rolling Stone
Peter Travers
The late, great Stanton gets the perfect send-off playing an atheist loner kicking his own mortality down the road like a tin can that got in his way. His character may not believe in God. But what kind of fool doesn't believe in Harry Dean Stanton?
NPR
Andrew Lapin
The plot is a whisper, barely there - just enough for us to better understand Lucky's ruminations on death and the void that comes after.
