Lucky Break

Cheer up, Eastenders has gone to four nights a week

When bungling career crim' Jimmy Hands (James Nesbitt) gets 12 years for a botched bank job things must be looking bleak - but Jimmy's got a plan.

Graeme Symington

When he meets up with old mate Rudy (Lennie James) they hatch a plan to escape.

Who says I've got Cold Feet

Prison Governor Graham Mortimer (Christopher Plummer) is mad about musicals so Jimmy suggests putting on a show to entertain the inmates and provide cover for their escape attempt.

But that's before he meets prison officer Annabel Sweep (Olivia Williams) and attachments grow with prison life.

Lucky Break
Now my dear, sing "The hills are alive with the Sound of Music."

Lucky Break is the first outing for director Peter Cattaneo since The Full Monty swept through cinemas four years ago.

He has created another wonderful film, and although it will find it hard to match the former's box office success, Lucky Break has that same magic blend of comedy and tragedy that made The Full Monty so special.

The pace of the film is spot on - it doesn't rush the story or the actors, but gives them all the chance to turn in impressive performances.

All in all a summer treat to savour.

4/5
