Logan Lucky Review

I don’t think anyone really expected Steven Soderbergh to stay in retirement. There was a bit of thought that he would but with his work on stage and TV since he retired, it was all but inevitable that Soderbergh would come back to film. Considering that his most popular films in the eyes of the…
