Luck of the Draw | Year: 2000 Classification: Mystery / Suspense Directed: - Luca Bercovici Actors/Actresses: - Michael Madson Woops, almost missed this one. This movie was not well received, but I'm glad I didnt get suckered in by the bad press. The story centers around a set of stolen plates for printing US currency. Perfect plates...and everybody wants them, including the feds. Strong ensemble cast carries a fairly clever story. I mean, how can you go wrong with Hopper/Madsen/Ice- T/Roberts/Forsythe et.al. And if you think these guys are miscast, maybe you're missing the humor. Eric Roberts is hilarious as an obvious southern transplant that leans heavily on his best guinea accent when he "tries" to be tough. And Sasha Mitchell from the old Dallas clan is hysterical as his hulking moronic bonebreaker. You gotta believe that Ice-T's not acting when he threatens to go to work on a couple of the boys with a "blowtorch and vice-grips." Hopper is a rare talent that can make a living playing himself, and Madsen is as menacing and strange as ever as a "just how connected is this guy" loanshark. I loved it. OK, this film begs for an alternate ending but otherwise a fun ride. Doesn't deserve the criticism.
