Happy Go Lucky


Have you ever wondered if you seen the same movie as everyone else? If you have you'll understand my confusion about "Happy Go Lucky". I thought it was slow, painful to watch and pointless.

The character of Popi, all the reviews describer as her as optimistic. I thought she was rude,disrespectful and passive-aggressive. Worst yet like most passive aggressive people she does not see it and does not care about role in her self created craziness.
The movie is about Popi going through her life. Giggling at people feeling. Not able to have an adult conversation. Following what ever whim she has even placing herself in unsafe situations.

Her driving instructor is a unstable racist with a few hundred paranoid ideals. So of course giggling passive aggressive nothing is ever serious Popi pushes him to a melt down. Then acts superior because she herself doesn't act the way. Never realizing she never followed one of his request. Or that the she strip the one area of pride the man had-His ability to teach driving.
She is a truly awful woman and it is a disgusting waste of time and film.
