Luck

Right now you can watch Luck in Australia on Apple TV and Apple TV Amazon Channel, and in the US on Apple TV and Apple TV Amazon Channel — and it is funnier than its reputation suggests. It knows exactly what kind of film it is from the opening scene, and never loses that thread. With 2,031 viewer ratings on TMDB, this is not a title flying under the radar. Eva Noblezada leads a cast with real comic timing. There is no real reason to keep putting it off — it is right there on Apple TV.

Luck arrived without much fanfare and built its audience the hard way — through word of mouth. The jokes in Luck land because the characters underneath them are worth caring about. Suddenly finding herself in the never-before-seen Land of Luck, the unluckiest person in the world must unite with the magical creatures there to turn her luck around. Between them, Eva Noblezada and Simon Pegg carry the comedy without ever forcing it. It was released in 2022. The timing in Luck is precise enough that even the throwaway lines land on a second watch. The hit rate here is high enough that skipping ahead never feels like an option.

Comedy fans looking for a reliably funny watch will find it in Luck. It stands on its own even without an obvious comparison point. A contained runtime means every scene is doing real work. Eva Noblezada anchors an ensemble with real chemistry. Genuinely funny, consistently, across the whole run.
