Description:
Chock full of strippers, gamblers, and wisecracking hit men, Luckytown is tailor-made for lovers of the Vegas movie. Kirsten Dunst plays Lidda, an 18-year-old who goes off to Sin City to find her long-lost father. Along the way she picks up Colonel, an old high school crush who just happens to dream of being a professional gambler. Soon her story begins to intertwine with that of Tony, a sleazy strip-club owner, and Jimmy, his oddly philosophical thug. Luckytown is well intentioned and has a few good moments, but the script never quite turns into the stew of immorality that it hopes to be. On the other hand, it does have James Caan playing the world's greatest poker player like the old pro that he is, and that's never a bad thing. --Ali Davis
