What to Know

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

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

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

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

Helena C @RT43643508 4 days ago Lacked substance. Great visuals with a cliche story. See more Subtracktive T @RT63776699 5 days ago Honestly i disliked every character other than Dutch. Lacked chemistry on screen. Frustrating ending. See more Martin B @RT44235356 Sep 13, 2026 So far have loved everything Anya Taylor-Joy has done. She's very unique, took a special actress to pull that sort of plot off and she did so quite nicely. That unsmiling face, the eyes, the eyebrows, she just exudes a woman you don't want to mess with. See more Carolyn L @Liddy411 Sep 13, 2026 The show was entertaining. See more Richard B @Rboutside Sep 8, 2026 Lucky Me This 7 episode series sets the course from the first episode - all the men are evil scumbags who lie to you, steal from you, attack you and betray you, so you need to be Lucky to stay ahead. But this polemic is powered by the alien cutie Taylor Joy, who the camera adores, the ultra charming Tim O and the now wrinkled Annette Benning, delivering perfectly ripe performances. Needless to say, all the men get their comeuppance from the women - all of them, death by car, thrown from the top of high structures, shot in the guts and head, and tricked and abandoned. For a female revenge fantasy, this delivers nice twists and turns and is richly entertaining throughout. Anya Taylor Joy - you can't stop looking at her- is just marvellous.
