Classic Rewind: Logan Lucky


Listen Later

This week on Classic Rewind, we wrap up our month of reviewing Heist/Crime films with the unusual but funny Logan Lucky.

How seriously can one take a movie that features characters with names like Joe Bang and Max Chilblain? That the former is a rural West Virginia demolition expert played by a bleach-blond, flamboyantly accented Daniel Craig, and the latter an obnoxious English energy drink magnate portrayed by Seth MacFarlane (in what appears to be a combination John Oates/Michael Jackson costume), does not exactly impart a sense of gravitas on to Logan Lucky, the laidback caper comedy that marked Steven Soderbergh’s return to movies after a self-imposed “retirement.” And that’s without even mentioning the hapless Logan boys: the hangdog amputee Clyde (Adam Driver) and the limping Jimmy (Channing Tatum), who hatches a plan to rob a pneumatic tube system under the Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, North Carolina, after losing his job “for liability reasons involving insurance.”
