My Lucky Star, a spy-caper romance from China, is sweet and harmless, but it’s also a little disorienting. Read full review

While Zhang is one of China’s greatest international stars, My Lucky Star is utterly provincial. It’s for Chinese viewers, plus those few westerners who revel in Asian hyper-cuteness. Read full review

Wholesome, effortless entertainment that runs smoothly enough but seldom takes one’s breath away in the romance department. Read full review

While the film does not lack production values and panache, Gordon's direction often seems thoughtless. Read full review

That My Lucky Star isn’t serious is less an issue than the fact that its comedic action is so broad, ridiculous, and predictable that it soon feels juvenile, akin to a training-wheels variation on various genre formulas. Read full review

Still, the vibrantly shot Lucky Star could have been a mildly entertaining bit of escapism, were it not for the fact that Sophie isn't naïve so much as infantile, a point driven home by her wardrobe. Read full review

Yet another limp spy spoof that fails to make any interesting critiques about the genre, let alone construct a humorous gag. Read full review
