Trying to reverse a family curse, brothers Jimmy and Clyde Logan set out to execute an elaborate robbery during the legendary Coca-Cola 600 race at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.

Critic Consensus

Critical reception for Logan Lucky is largely positive, with most reviewers finding it an entertaining and well-crafted heist comedy. Critics most commonly praised its quirky humor, smart writing, and Soderbergh's assured direction, with several noting it as a worthy and original entry in the heist genre. The most notable dissent came from a minority of critics who found the film unconvincing and lacking in thrills. A few reviewers also flagged a somewhat drawn-out final act and the observation that it does not quite match the energy of Soderbergh's Ocean's films.

9.0
"Logan Lucky Movie Review: Steven Soderbergh, the master of heist cinema, strikes again with a delightful comedy about people who may look like idiots and yet concoct a brilliant plan."

"It's unpredictable, with some unforeseen twists and turns but with its heart intact. While the last act feels a bit drawn out, especially with the rushed introduction of a particular character, the majority of the film plays out smoothly and there's hardly a lull in the quirky humor and suspense. Even if it doesn't raise the stakes of the genre, there's enough potential to turn this funny and smartly written caper into another entertaining Soderbergh franchise."

"Overall, sans the thrilling factor, this hard boiled heist comedy, is unconvincing and difficult to digest."

"Daddy might be a brave attempt and Ahluwalia should be credited for the unconventional storytelling, but in totality, the film feels like a wasted opportunity."

"...flaws aside, it is a darn good heist, and sure to leave you with a smile on your face. We should be glad Soderbergh is back, hopefully this time for good."

"With a gentler pace, less swag and more humane characters than the Ocean's franchise, Lucky Logan comes with a twist, plenty of spirit and is gratifying in its own way."

"Logan Lucky is not as thrilling as Ocean's Eleven, but it is an original variation of a typical genre. It probably won't blow you away, but it will not disappoint you either."
