Last year Steven Soderbergh returned to his director’s chair to create a mixture of good laugh and crime events in a new comedy Logan Lucky. The title, however, misleads the viewers about Logan’s family. One of them lost an arm in Iraq, another was fired from a job; the sister does a little better, but not well enough. All these misfortunes lead to the idea of the family to stage a heist and rewrite family history.
Soderbergh knows how to stage heist and break scenes, so they are truly impeccable here. Yet, the whole point of the film is in the jokes about the south, the interactions of the main characters with each other, and, of course, laughs about the Game of Thrones.
