" Date: 4/21/2021 Viewed: HBO Max First Viewing Note: I always heard good things about this movie for years and I finally got the chance to watch it on HBO Max. I thought Happy-Go-Lucky was a pretty good movie in my opinion. I like the vibe and story because you can feel the positive energy when watching this film.

"First viewing - Feb. 28th Back when this came out I kind of wrote it off, but over the years I've seen enough praise here and there that I kept it in mind to give it a chance.

"If you can get past the irritating and somewhat annoying cheerfulness of Sally Hawkins' character Poppy, there is much to like in this movie.
