DETAILED SYNOPSIS:
Good Luck is a casebook example of good filmmaking. This is one of those eager-to-please movies that works well involving the odd-couple pairing of a former football star (Vincent D'Onofrio) who was blinded in a freak tackling accident, and a paraplegic (Gregory Hines) who dreams of entering a popular white-water rafting competition on Oregon's Rogue River. Hines convinces the bull-headed D'Onofrio to join him in the competition, defying all those bumpkin nonbelievers who doubt that two "cripples" can pilot a river raft, and Good Luck settles into its feel-good plot. The movie is most enjoyable when Hines and D'Onofrio simply play off of each other's considerable talents, and humorous dialogue enables them to give engaging performances (including gratuitous profanity and D'Onofrio's gleeful description of a prodigious bowel movement). This movie favors triumph-over-adversity and offering something new in its handling of the physical and emotional issues of blindness and paralysis.
