Critics Consensus

Anya Taylor-Joy is Lucky in an entertaining bit of thrilling fare that often promises more than it can deliver but never lets the audience down when it comes to action and intrigue.

It's a wild ride, as aggressively entertaining as its theme song. Go to Full Review Amon Warmann Empire Magazine Jul 24, 2026
4/5
Anya Taylor-Joy’s scrappy protagonist grifts her way out of problems in this compelling and unpredictable drama. No luck required. Go to Full Review Chris Vognar Boston Globe Jul 21, 2026
Quantity is rarely the same as quality in episodic television, and “Lucky,” to its credit, steers clear of the bloat epidemic that plagues so much current TV. That’s a big reason why it’s such a bloody good time. Go to Full Review John Stark Mac the Movie Guy Sep 11, 2026
85/100
If you haven’t gotten Lucky yet, now’s the time. Although, oddly, in order to get Lucky, you have to have Apple TV. Wait, what did you think I was talking about? Go to Full Review Steve Murray ArtsATL Aug 27, 2026
Bening and Ellis who give the real performances. Taylor-Joy is a capable anchor, but she still hasn’t learned the trick of going deep. For that, you can always count on Bening, one of our greatest, under-rewarded screen actors. Go to Full Review Neely Swanson Beverly Hills Courier Aug 14, 2026
“Lucky,” the Jonathan Tropper-created series based on the book by Melissa Stapley, is not bad. I’m not damning it with faint praise, but it could have been so much better. Star Anya Taylor-Joy is reason enough to take a peek. Go to Full Review Read all reviews

Craig B @Boundsy 5 days ago Anya Taylor-Joy is her usual under-stated self in this entertaining, rollicking ride. What makes this such a good show is the fact the producers have realised, unlike many others in their industry, this story has a limited life and has been developed as a seven episode miniseries with a defined endpoint. See more Noel K @nollaig Sep 30, 2026 I stuck around until Episode 3...which was when I finally gave up. Totally miscast series with everyone overacting the tough guy role...none less than Taylor-Joy and Bening. So sad considering the combined talent but I guess it wasn't meant to be. I should also give mention to the pretentious theme music. See more Elisha I @asapidox Sep 28, 2026 Really strong season overall. It had a great mix of mystery, tension, and emotional moments, with Episode 4 being a standout. It stayed consistently engaging and finished on a high. See more Brian M @RT27089815 Sep 23, 2026 Great cast and just had you on the edge every moment. Unpredictable See more Helena C @RT43643508 Sep 18, 2026 Lacked substance. Great visuals with a cliche story. See more Subtracktive T @RT63776699 Sep 17, 2026 Honestly i disliked every character other than Dutch. Lacked chemistry on screen. Frustrating ending.
