Synopsis
Hard Luck (2006) is an American crime thriller directed by Mario Van Peebles you can watch online on iFILM. Wesley Snipes plays a reformed drug dealer doing his best to stay out — until one gang birthday party puts everything back at risk.
He bolts with a dancer and a bag of stolen cash, gangsters and dirty cops close behind. Running parallel to all of this: a neatly dressed suburban housewife working through some issues of the sadistic variety — Cybill Shepherd in a role that comes from nowhere and lands exactly right. Three storylines converge at speed, and none of them promise a clean exit.
Melvin Van Peebles, the filmmaker behind the original blaxploitation breakthrough, appears in a supporting role alongside his son who directed and also acts. The film knows it's genre entertainment and leans in. Stream Hard Luck online on iFILM.
