Translate

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die, the "grippingly unpredictable" sci-fi movie starring Ted Lasso's Juno Temple, is now trending on Prime Video. Directed by Gore Verbinski, the comedy stars Sam Rockwell as a man from the future who travels back in time to recruit a group of diner patrons in Los Angeles to help him save the world from a rogue artificial intelligence.

Released in 2026, the film stars Haley Lu Richardson, Michael Peña, Zazie Beetz, and Asim Chaudhry alongside Temple and Rockwell.

The description reads: "A dark night. A crowded diner. A man with a detonator (Sam Rockwell) bursts in, proclaiming to be from the future.

"Before time runs out, he must recruit a group of distinctly unqualified diner patrons to stop the impending AI apocalypse and save humanity from the perils of social media."

Since being added to Prime Video over the weekend, Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die has been trending on the streamer and is now the third most-watched film in the UK.

The film was a hit with critics and currently holds an 82% approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, based on 237 reviews.

"It is grippingly unpredictable – a film with a glint in its eye and smoke curling from its nostrils and underpants. But you dismiss it, or miss it, at your peril," wrote The Daily Telegraph.

The Independent said: "It’s ideologically flawed, structurally jumbled, and a little too enamoured by its dystopian predecessors. But it’s also sort of wonderfully personal, cranky and spiked -- like an affronted hedgehog trying to repeatedly ram your shin."

"Even if much of Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is in need of a rethink, it’s hard not to enjoy the scrappy, animated brainstorm taking place in front of us. The mess of it all is at least a very human one," penned The Guardian.

Empire Magazine added of the film: "This starts strong but doesn’t always have the room to explore all the ideas it crams in, even with a lengthy running time. Still, Rockwell’s man-on-a-mission is a delight."

Good Luck, Have Fun, Don’t Die is streaming on Prime Video.
