Hello, i made a tribute to Elisha Cuthbert, i tried to match song and cutscene in the best way i could. I know its sound kinda lame to ask you, but if you have time check it out and let me know your opinion! ua-cam.com/video/QbvskSIqIEc/v-deo.html
As a parent this was very hard to watch. As a parent of a different kind of an addict in recovery for about 25 yr. it was very very hard to watch. My adult child is doing great, has a good life & I'm very proud to say that it can happen to others. There is life beyond the addiction. Thanks for the upload!

This is a very well made film, superbly acted. Elisha Cuthbert should have won an Oscar for her portrayal of a gambler with a serious problem. Sad story, actually which afflicts so many millions and a certain international parasite makes tons of money off their addiction. Thanks for posting.

If Mom had shared the problem with her husband and tackled the problem "head on" as soon as it was obvious she was skipping school, getting bad grades, stealing etc...Keeping it quiet from her husband was a very poor decision on her part and she needed to be stronger in her punishment ....Lots more she could have done before it got worse and worse.

This movie is right on! I worked at a casino for eight years and saw it destroy people's lives so often. Gambling is one of worst addictions because it can lead to other things to escape. Drugs, alcohol, prostitution and suicide!! It's a sad thing to watch happen to people.

Gambling Addiction is extemely devastating financially it affects their spouse and children they can lose their home life savings college funds .. Gambling Addiction isn't as mild as you're implying.. .

ive been on a lifetime movie binge and this is by far the best one yet. soo good! also cant believe that this is the girl that played Alex on happy endings!
i worked in the casino and experienced the players up close. they are, almost all, the same. every penny is gambled. you know no end! this film shows it very well.
Gambling is so magnetic. I used to gamble and it was an addiction. 2007 I weaned off it big time and almost five years ago I quit completely. I don't miss it
Holy crap holy crap !!! Thanks to whom ever started not to watch then almost had to quit watching didn't know they were capable of making a movie this damn good great acting great story I'll be impressed for a month it's about time thank you

@@alfredoreyes8058 Son, you have access to the knowledge of the world at your fingertips, yet you can't move yourself to Google what the word 'flatus' means? I am sorry your parents did not teach you to seek & find the way the Lord taught us, friend.
very good movie, disturbingly real,, but a good way of teaching kids and parents, how things can go horribly wrong. when we hide our activities from parents, but as a parent, we must accept our share of the blame, I remember how difficult life can be growing up, knowing your limits, and understanding consequences helps, also thinking how our actions can and do effect others.!! An Even good intelligent kids, (like many adults) do, make poor decisions we label mistakes but when we love our kids we stand by them. it doesn't mean we condone their actions, but some love is and should be, unconditional Canada produces many fine movie, such as "Leolo" and "The fast Runner", I hope this movie produces some good prevention motivating. thank you
I go to the casino in Cherokee sometimes. I take $20 to play with, and $20 to eat with, and always plan to lose. If I win $50, I quit and consider my dinner free! Just play for fun, and not to win. Enjoy the atmosphere, strike up a conversation with the person next to you. Casino's are alright if you treat them like an amusement park.
Kimberly Painter I’m an off again/on again smoker. Nicotine is the devil. I know that I have an addictive personality so I’ve never gambled in my life because of it.

gambling has always seemed very stupid to me. used casinos around tahoe for cheap food and accomodations to go skiing. traded the gambling tokens for lift tickets.

Wow a lifetime movie that's not terrible? Actually enjoyed this, and even though it's exaggerated it really shows what a slippery slope gambling can be.
This was one of the last of the good Lifetime movies this came out on 2001 I think .. Within 2000-2010 was when Lifetime started making cheesy movies bad acting cheesy plots bad directing and bad filming especially the zoom shots.. 😩

I found this movie tough to watch, it triggered me. Not because it was bad, it wasn't, it was accurate in portraying addiction. I don't have addictions as such but have so far endured 50 + years living with Borderline Personality Disorder. There are a lot of similarities in behaviour to those linked with addiction, especially the risk taking and dishonesty, poor choices in associations and legal or financial issues.

DarkxAngel, NICE VIDEO ,I HAD NOT SEEN BEFORE, ENJOYED IT VERY MUCH, THANKS 4 THE UPLOAD. INTERESTING FILM ,GOOD DIALOGUE,NICE GAMBLING STORY OF LIFE IN A BAD SITUATION! FROM ( AUSSIE JOHN)...❤❤....
Lucky Girl is about a girl who is hooked on gambling. From sports to online casino games. Then she has a huge debt hanging over her head which means her friends and her mother are upset. This movie educates individuals about the dangers of gambling and what it actually can do. A financial ruin!
Please have the common courtesy to add quotations and words **SPOILER ALERT** at the beginning of a post telling important parts of the movie .. Please..
She is dating a guy who is 22, ditches school and her exam, lied, and continued to lie about it, while simultaneously diverting the bank statements and stolen checks…. And the mom is like “dont worry honey your supposed to have fun” LMAO RICH PEOPLE
I like this movie. I hate gambling and have no problem with that, but I understand how these people feel because I'm battling heroin addiction for 15 years. So many times have been clean and thought it was behind me, but I always go back. I love it and I will never completely stop.
This is why I don't gamble at Casino's! I Only only played with family, and then it was only 20$. None of us ever lost our shirts! Fun, and safe. Good movie to learn a lesson, that's for sure!
I agree, many lessons in the movie, in my mind the heaviness of addiction (of any sort whether alcohol, drugs, spending, doing things over and over ritualistically, sex, and in this case gambling) can change lives of the person with the addiction and their loved ones. You can change her gambling addiction to any of the addictions that people have a serious propensity for and it is all the same. Once in the pathway of addiction it's so hard to get out. I have a loved one who is addicted to money (not gambling) but she will sell her soul to the devil and anyone else to get the 'high' of ANY money exchange and her mother is addicted to telling lies and fabricating a false life, the addictions are the same--just one preferred and 'lived out' over the other. It is all the same one addictive behavior or the other leads to destructive consequences. Get help if you have any addictive behavior that takes over your life or you have a loved one that suffers from addiction. My family wont listen because they are above us mortal souls that suffer in their aftermaths---that are never ending.
@@lyncastleheights1521 You are absolutely correct. Anything can become an addiction. I don't drink nor do I do drugs. It only takes a few times to become an addict. I thank God non of our large family were addicted to anything outwardly, anyway. Maybe the guys porn?? I don't know because that is usually kept secret, and in ones mind. When it came to playing cards once in a while with family, it was nickel, and dimes. We all kept a can full of our chump change that we won or lost with. This way you couldn't lose your shirt. It was fun, and entertaining maybe 3X a year. Every month tho we had Pinochle club. No money in that game, but lists of fun. I feel if you have an addictive personality you stay away from those things that can really hurt you in the long run. You said it well for all things. You could even put morality from God's word in that statement too. Thank you for your comment. All of that wasn't on my mind until I read your post. I hope you made more of a statement openly regarding this movie, and your accurate response. Take care, and thank you again👍❤
I seen this movie 🎥 before and it’s a damn good one!!! I’ve had addictions, but never gambling 🎰!!!! I’ve overcome lots of my addictions and I sure as hell don’t want anymore!!! An Excellent Movie 🍿 Especially For Young Kids!!!! At Any Age, Show This To Teens!!!! Or Around 10 Years Old!!!! Good Luck 🍀👍 Kids!!!!
This is a very good film, excellent acting 🎭 ❤ I love indie films & this one is top notch. Elisha Cuthbert is one of my favourite Canadian actors & she owned her character & the screen 🇨🇦🎞🎬📽 Gambling is a major problem for many people around the world, & it can be just as addicting as narcotics, alcohol, food, sex, porn, etc. & this film sends a powerful message about the dangers of compulsive gambling.
I don’t like it at all I don’t even play that I know what can do to the family bad things can happen you can lose your house and no money to pay bills other stuff and it can be bad when they play with people too. If you play with prison you won them if they don’t get there money or day even they wait it for long 3,5 week’s for it this is death here family can get kill anyone in family live in house with kids,
I like how they names this movie “lucky girl” to make her a very unlucky character its very creative and funny ! But also people need to watch this so they can know that yeah gambling looks fun and exciting but it can have HUGE consequences and can impact your life and the people around you as well!! Gambling is an addiction an can be actually WILL BE very brutal if you let it get that far! Just don’t do it !!!
Beautiful movie, so realistic. Lesson: We should keep ourselves away from bad habits before you get edited to it or completely absorbed into gambling. Gamblers are losers.
This movie is a trigger warning to actual gambling addicts and those affected by them. I saw this movie. It's a good movie and I recommend it if you can handle the trigger warning. :)
I relate so much with this movie, because my brother have a serious gambling addiction which keeps getting worse. He is owing loan companies. He steals my dad's clients car parts to sell ( dad is an automobile engineer) he have borrowed money from neighbors and my dads clients and ran away from home so many times to gamble. He always comes back begging to never gamble again we forgive him always. He graduated to emptying my dads account multiple times and running away to gamble. He wrecked my dad. I myself have tried helping him to replace what my dad lost. The latest now is that he sold my dads clients car and also sold another engine and ran away with the money. My dad have been arrested 2wice because of him and the case is still ongoing, nobody even knows where he is. The family is in debt because of him. He himself is still owing thousands of dollars to loan companies. We are not even taking about how much he steals from the family. As of now he is missing. Only God knows how he must have blown the money he ran away with in gambling. I could never had believed that a chronic gambler will come from my family. It is heart breaking.
@@butterfly1564 I'm so sorry. I hope things turn around for the better despite how long this has been going. I hope your brother is found and I hope he gets the help he needs. I hope your family does better too. stay strong and keep on having hope that things will get better. Thank you for sharing your story.
I remember watching it when I was like 15 and my parents were asleep and it played on some tv channel. It left a super deep impression on me for a long time.
well karena222 if that is what you think then they must have done a fantastic job at making that movie I thought it was well put together and well written as well!
Such a great message it really ruins our life. I have seen lots of my friends loosing their money on betting even I use to play but now am not. Stay away from it guys work hard be happy. have a good day❤️.

This movie is right on! I worked at a casino for eight years and saw it destroy people's lives so often. Gambling is one of worst addictions because it can lead to other things to escape. Drugs, alcohol, prostitution and suicide!! It's a sad thing to watch happen to people.
So true!!;

meth and heroin is way worse than gambling
@@c.m.b.7567No not really all the way around .. Only in regards to how hard it is to stay sober and clean from Drugs or Alcohol vs. Gambling Addiction.. Gambling Addiction is extemely devastating financially it affects their spouse and children they can lose their home life savings college funds .. Gambling Addiction isn't as mild as you're implying..

The girl was from "the girl next door", right? I watched it last week
yes . I watched it too last week 😅
UA-cam algorithm is leading us to the some location.
Maybe it's something big, may be it is the key to Skynet , or maybe a special place.
See you all in the next movie location.

I just watched yesterday 'the girl next door' and today I got this movie on recommendation
Ya I watched it too before this movie got recommended to me
ive been on a lifetime movie binge and this is by far the best one yet. soo good! also cant believe that this is the girl that played Alex on happy endings!
Carlyfornia Can you recommend any?
i worked in the casino and experienced the players up close. they are, almost all, the same. every penny is gambled. you know no end! this film shows it very well.

Yes you're right
Gambling is so magnetic. I used to gamble and it was an addiction. 2007 I weaned off it big time and almost five years ago I quit completely. I don't miss it
Great find, great post. Many thanks. This movie was a total surprise - way better than I thought it would be.

I am sorry your parents did not teach you to seek & find the way the Lord taught us, friend.
very good movie, disturbingly real,, but a good way of teaching kids and parents, how things can go horribly wrong. when we hide our activities from parents, but as a parent, we must accept our share of the blame, I remember how difficult life can be growing up, knowing your limits, and understanding consequences helps, also thinking how our actions can and do effect others.!! An Even good intelligent kids, (like many adults) do, make poor decisions we label mistakes but when we love our kids we stand by them. it doesn't mean we condone their actions, but some love is and should be, unconditional Canada produces many fine movie, such as "Leolo" and "The fast Runner", I hope this movie produces some good prevention motivating. thank you
I watched her movie, “The girl next door” last time, now UA-cam recs did its thing again. Haha thanks UA-cam
Almost 1/4 of the movie left.. And now im depressed, this movie is so depressing in all means.
She's a much better actress than Girl Next Door y'all, look into her. The ending to this film is brilliant, addiction never ends.

Great movie! Thank you for posting!
I have never gambled in my life. This movie made me think about people who take such scary chances. #don't gamble.
Kimberly Painter ,,,, I work in a casino, ,,,, the gambler's are always a frustrated souls
agreed
I go to the casino in Cherokee sometimes. I take $20 to play with, and $20 to eat with, and always plan to lose. If I win $50, I quit and consider my dinner free! Just play for fun, and not to win. Enjoy the atmosphere, strike up a conversation with the person next to you. Casino's are alright if you treat them like an amusement park.
You're rationalizing. It's wrong no matter what.
Kimberly Painter I’m an off again/on again smoker. Nicotine is the devil. I know that I have an addictive personality so I’ve never gambled in my life because of it.

The title of this movie should be The Unlucky girl...I don't see anything lucky about her. She got in all sorts of trouble at 17 and couldn't even rehabilitate her gambling habit!
she was lucky she didn't end up dead
aria afghan you right bro I mean I didn't see nothing about her luck
aria afghan . If the title was called Unlucky girl it would kind of take the suspense away. cool movie all the same
it's called irony haha

Nice I just checked in a year later and its
still up what a run its having hopefully this continues sometimes I like to
watch movies more then once.

A superb film . Watched 3 times .
Most of the movies Mom’s are the real heroes...they save the entire story with their courage
exactly why I don't gamble it's just like a drug I was even play scratch off lol...she was really dumb to give him half her money when she has debt herself,smh....great movie thanks for uploading 👍👍
Life is a gamble,,,, so was the theme of this movie,, enjoyed watching!
Wow a lifetime movie that's not terrible? Actually enjoyed this, and even though it's exaggerated it really shows what a slippery slope gambling can be.
This was one of the last of the good Lifetime movies this came out on 2001 I think .. Within 2000-2010 was when Lifetime started making cheesy movies bad acting cheesy plots bad directing and bad filming especially the zoom shots.. 😩
Brilliant movie - thank you so very much.

I found this movie tough to watch, it triggered me. Not because it was bad, it wasn't, it was accurate in portraying addiction. I don't have addictions as such but have so far endured 50 + years living with Borderline Personality Disorder. There are a lot of similarities in behaviour to those linked with addiction, especially the risk taking and dishonesty, poor choices in associations and legal or financial issues.
The title should be called " To No End" ...
Good movie, confirms my hatred for Gambling any type of way ...

Lucky Girl is about a girl who is hooked on gambling. From sports to online casino games. Then she has a huge debt hanging over her head which means her friends and her mother are upset. This movie educates individuals about the dangers of gambling and what it actually can do. A financial ruin!
Well done brain a britain .think we worked that 1 out.
Please have the common courtesy to add quotations and words **SPOILER ALERT** at the beginning of a post telling important parts of the movie .. Please..
She is dating a guy who is 22, ditches school and her exam, lied, and continued to lie about it, while simultaneously diverting the bank statements and stolen checks…. And the mom is like “dont worry honey your supposed to have fun” LMAO RICH PEOPLE
I like this movie. I hate gambling and have no problem with that, but I understand how these people feel because I'm battling heroin addiction for 15 years. So many times have been clean and thought it was behind me, but I always go back. I love it and I will never completely stop.
❤
I hope you get sober and stay sober eventually it's a devastating and dangerous thing to love.. ..
Wow.... Wonderful movie she is really a lucky girl to have a mother like that
surprisingly good movie ... guess title 'lucky girl' meant she got lucky that she didn't get killed and have a very understanding parents
This is why I don't gamble at Casino's! I Only only played with family, and then it was only 20$. None of us ever lost our shirts! Fun, and safe.
Good movie to learn a lesson, that's for sure!
I agree, many lessons in the movie, in my mind the heaviness of addiction (of any sort whether alcohol, drugs, spending, doing things over and over ritualistically, sex, and in this case gambling) can change lives of the person with the addiction and their loved ones. You can change her gambling addiction to any of the addictions that people have a serious propensity for and it is all the same. Once in the pathway of addiction it's so hard to get out. I have a loved one who is addicted to money (not gambling) but she will sell her soul to the devil and anyone else to get the 'high' of ANY money exchange and her mother is addicted to telling lies and fabricating a false life, the addictions are the same--just one preferred and 'lived out' over the other. It is all the same one addictive behavior or the other leads to destructive consequences. Get help if you have any addictive behavior that takes over your life or you have a loved one that suffers from addiction. My family wont listen because they are above us mortal souls that suffer in their aftermaths---that are never ending.
@@lyncastleheights1521
You are absolutely correct. Anything can become an addiction. I don't drink nor do I do drugs. It only takes a few times to become an addict. I thank God non of our large family were addicted to anything outwardly, anyway. Maybe the guys porn??
I don't know because that is usually kept secret, and in ones mind.
When it came to playing cards once in a while with family, it was nickel, and dimes.
We all kept a can full of our chump change that we won or lost with. This way you couldn't lose your shirt. It was fun, and entertaining maybe 3X a year. Every month tho we had Pinochle club. No money in that game, but lists of fun.
I feel if you have an addictive personality you stay away from those things that can really hurt you in the long run.
You said it well for all things. You could even put morality from God's word in that statement too.
Thank you for your comment. All of that wasn't on my mind until I read your post.
I hope you made more of a statement openly regarding this movie, and your accurate response.
Take care, and thank you again👍❤

I seen this movie 🎥 before and it’s a damn good one!!! I’ve had addictions, but never gambling 🎰!!!! I’ve overcome lots of my addictions and I sure as hell don’t want anymore!!!

Try “I’ve seen.”

This is a very good film, excellent acting 🎭 ❤ I love indie films & this one is top notch. Elisha Cuthbert is one of my favourite Canadian actors & she owned her character & the screen 🇨🇦🎞🎬📽 Gambling is a major problem for many people around the world, & it can be just as addicting as narcotics, alcohol, food, sex, porn, etc. & this film sends a powerful message about the dangers of compulsive gambling.
It's 2 am and am supposed to get up for work in 5 hours haha
Hope Wagner I can relate 😅😅
Haha sorry..
Funny, it's 2:am three years later and I'm watching, but I don't have to get up for work, tomorrow is Sunday for me lol
I hate gambling. Last time I played I lost $600. I'd rather just work for my money. At least that way it's guaranteed
I don’t like it at all I don’t even play that I know what can do to the family bad things can happen you can lose your house and no money to pay bills other stuff and it can be bad when they play with people too. If you play with prison you won them if they don’t get there money or day even they wait it for long 3,5 week’s for it this is death here family can get kill anyone in family live in house with kids,
Taylor Taylor
Nothing''s guaranteed. Not even getting paid.
After the support her mom gave her it still ended with her gambling sad.. 🙄
Mom sat back while dad taught them to gamble. She shouldn’t be surprised.
Guys cmon this is literally the prequel to The Girl Next Door. Cmon guys
I like how they names this movie “lucky girl” to make her a very unlucky character its very creative and funny ! But also people need to watch this so they can know that yeah gambling looks fun and exciting but it can have HUGE consequences and can impact your life and the people around you as well!! Gambling is an addiction an can be actually WILL BE very brutal if you let it get that far! Just don’t do it !!!
Beautiful movie, so realistic.
Lesson: We should keep ourselves away from bad habits before you get edited to it or completely absorbed into gambling.
Gamblers are losers.
Pakis like you are losers.
This movie is a trigger warning to actual gambling addicts and those affected by them.
I saw this movie. It's a good movie and I recommend it if you can handle the trigger warning.
:)
I relate so much with this movie, because my brother have a serious gambling addiction which keeps getting worse. He is owing loan companies. He steals my dad's clients car parts to sell ( dad is an automobile engineer) he have borrowed money from neighbors and my dads clients and ran away from home so many times to gamble. He always comes back begging to never gamble again we forgive him always. He graduated to emptying my dads account multiple times and running away to gamble. He wrecked my dad. I myself have tried helping him to replace what my dad lost. The latest now is that he sold my dads clients car and also sold another engine and ran away with the money. My dad have been arrested 2wice because of him and the case is still ongoing, nobody even knows where he is. The family is in debt because of him. He himself is still owing thousands of dollars to loan companies. We are not even taking about how much he steals from the family. As of now he is missing. Only God knows how he must have blown the money he ran away with in gambling. I could never had believed that a chronic gambler will come from my family. It is heart breaking.
@@butterfly1564 I'm so sorry. I hope things turn around for the better despite how long this has been going. I hope your brother is found and I hope he gets the help he needs. I hope your family does better too.
stay strong and keep on having hope that things will get better.
Thank you for sharing your story.
@@butterfly1564Hope your brother has gotten rehabilitation and is doing better.
I remember watching it when I was like 15 and my parents were asleep and it played on some tv channel. It left a super deep impression on me for a long time.
Great movie :) Thanks!
well karena222 if that is what you think then they must have done a fantastic job at making that movie
I thought it was well put together
and well written as well!
That dude got fucked up at the end and the message also at the end "a mother did what a mother had to do"
(excuse my language)
very true
I've always thought the blonde girl was drop dead gorgeous and the dimple in her chin is cute
Such a great message it really ruins our life. I have seen lots of my friends loosing their money on betting even I use to play but now am not. Stay away from it guys work hard be happy. have a good day❤️.
The ending was very accurate and the movie did a great job in conveying something that can be very destructive.
When lifetime used real actors and actresses
TRUE Danielle! And before they bought films with $5,000 budgets. Lifetime Movies were usually $2-3million. You can see the difference here!!!
