Reviews:

Todd Gilchrist, H Magazine: “Happy-Go-Lucky isn't just a film that demonstrates the goodness of humankind, but makes you believe in it as well.”

Frankk Ochieng, Movie Eye: “Roguishly insightful and quietly riveting, Happy-Go-Lucky is innocuously entertaining in its free-wheeling spirit...methodically merry-minded and meaningful...”

Susan Granger, SSG Syndicate: “In this bleak economic climate, are you looking for a glass that's half-full instead of half-empty? Here's a lighthearted, life-affirming comedy to be thankful for.

Set in contemporary London, veteran filmmaker Mike Leigh’s Happy-Go-Lucky focuses on Pauline Cross, ‘Poppy’, a thirty year old, perpetuating upbeat, infinitely accepting woman, who remains cheerful despite all the situations she faces that tests her inherent optimism. A winning character study by the king of chronicling the British working-class, Mike Leigh, as perhaps the feel-good movie of the year.
