more than what I expected
I picked this film up on a whim, and I thought that I knew what it was going to be about, but I was mistaken; I didn’t expect the dark comedy/tragedy that the film ended up being. However, this was not bad. I have watched tons of films wherein at one point, you say to yourself, “Ok, this is just not possible”, and you want to think that it’s not, because the characters don’t seem to deserve what you know what will happen to them. “Very bad things” with Jon Favreau comes to mind, but “Better Luck Tomorrow” actually connected me to the characters and made me really feel like I just wanted to scream at them and say tell them not to go down the road they were following! This is something that not many films can do (“Bad things” included).

This film is quite impressive, especially considering it was shot for a VERY shoestring budget, and had some great camera work and very solid editing. It did not in any way look like an amateur film, at all. I don’t understand how this film has been branded “shallow”; it takes an original story and tells it in a convincing manner not characteristic of many films lately.

On one final note, all the acting is great, and I really don’t care if anyone in it was thirty years old playing a seventeen year old, they were great performances and they had actual heart behind them.

If you have a chance, see this film, but be prepared to get a little more than what you thought you would.

I think “sucks” pretty much covers it.
“Better Luck Tomorrow”, a lukewarm attempt at film making and a poor attempt at story telling, tries too hard to be cool and not hard enough to be real. Focusing on a group of 5 affluent male SoCal AsianAm teens and one girl, this film offers only paper thin characters who apparently have no life beyond their high school and recreational activities and can’t manage a range of emotion beyond disaffected indolence to some hostility. There is precious little of interest in this shallow, hollow, monotonous, naive example of why we should all be hoping for better luck with tomorrow’s movie. Oh, yeah, and I do know these kids…much better than most. Another bad call by Ebert. Go see “Bully” (2001) instead. (C-)
