"Lucky Break" is a romantic-comedy with the emphasis on comedy though it is understated and somewhat bland by Yankee standards. The flick is about a bunch of prison inmates who put together a stage musical play to appease their warden and provide cover for a prison break. The film has obvious parallels with "The Full Monty" though it is not quite as fresh or fun and the end is eminently predictable. "Lucky Break" is a fun romp, somewhat slow and a lot corny, which would be more at home on the BBC than the international commercial film market. (C+)
Note - I shut my VHS of this flick off as soon as the credits rolled. Then having read the comment of another IMDB.com user, I went back and watched the credits which overlay a sort of visual epilogue tidying up loose ends. Thanks Cylex.
