Lucky Bastard Reviews
NYC Movie Guru
Avi Offer
Creepy, gradually suspenseful and well-acted, but not as provocative or profound as it could have been.
PopMatters
Bill Gibron
Had it tried a bit harder, Lucky Bastard would have been a classic, instead of a clever if sometimes contrived creepshow.
Screen Relish
Hope Madden
It's hard to tell whether LUCKY BASTARD is an earnestly conceived, whole-hearted attempt, or an opportunistic way to cash in on the titillation of porn and violence by creating a cautionary tale about porn and violence.
New York Post
Sara Stewart
If nothing else (and that is pretty accurate), this found-footage horror film comprises the perfect storm of keywords to ensure moderate online success: porn, guns, boobs, simulated rape, antisocial psychopath.
Reel Film Reviews
David Nusair
An especially underwhelming found-footage thriller...
Film Threat
Mark Bell
The found footage offers a rawness to the film, and the actors do a great job of melting into that false reality.
Film School Rejects
Rob Hunter
It's a surprisingly effective little thriller that entertains with laughs, nudity, and a third act bloodletting that feels a bit like Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.
The Dissolve
Scott Tobias
Lucky Bastard mostly combines the worst of all worlds [...] This is amateur-hour all around.
Slant Magazine
Drew Hunt
In the end, considering the numerous ways the film goes limp, it seems credibility still eludes the found-footage genre.
Los Angeles Times
Gary Goldstein
[Nathan], who co-wrote the clever, resourceful and at times darkly wry script with Lukas Kendall, effectively combines the eclectic footage (kudos to editor Tony Randel) to form a kicky, highly involving narrative.
Variety
Peter Labuza
None of the murders is particularly well staged (the sound effects feel distinctly off), yielding little in the way of suspense.
Hollywood Reporter
John DeFore
Less exploitative and a bit smarter than its seedy adult-film setting would suggest.
New York Times
Jeannette Catsoulis
A sorry-looking found-footage thriller as unconvincing as its characters' thrashing orgasms.
Village Voice
Rob Staeger
The film is most successful when humanizing the people behind the objectification, with lives beyond the smut.
L.A. Weekly
Chuck Wilson
Although it takes Nathan a bit too long to get his characters to Van Nuys, knowing in advance that Dave is likely to snap not only creates suspenseful dread, but ultimately makes the moviegoer complicit in the violence (which is believably haphazard).
We Got This Covered
Matt Donato
Lucky Bastard will regrettably leave most horror fans with a serious case of blue balls after a whimpering climax goes disappointingly soft. Think I can cram any more sexual puns in there? That's what she said.
FEARnet
Scott Weinberg
Lucky Bastard is a frank, fascinating, and decidedly "adult" piece of horror filmmaking.
Baret News
Kam Williams
A compelling, high body-count whodunit for folks willing to watch a lot of kinky cavorting while trying to unravel clues leading to the killer.
Film Journal International
Ethan Alter
For all its teasingly provocative set-up, it ultimately reveals itself to be pretty vanilla.
Shockya.com
Brent Simon
A fairly clever little indie film that shrewdly marries the popular but well-worn "found footage" framing device to a prurient storyline.
