Logan Lucky

Two brothers attempt a heist from a major car racing venue.

Directed by Steven Soderbergh who made the Oceans 11, 12, 13 series 'Logan Lucky' follows a similar template. An implausible robbery attempt against a highly fortified and defended target presented with a logic which more or less - or almost? - counterbalances the implausibility of the project.

Whereas in the Oceans series the viewer seemed shut out from a sense of in-joking between the star performers, what I prefer in Logan Lucky is that it comes across as being inclusive of the audience. Daniel Craig plays well against type and the entire cast contributes to the fun.
