Mila Kunis

Kunis plays Ani FaNelli, a have-it-all magazine journalist close to landing her dream job at the New York Times and marrying her wealthy boyfriend Luke (Finn ...

But “Luckiest Girl Alive” falls short of its promise, a reminder that, however ironic the title is intended to be, fortune tends to favor the bold. As constructed, unfortunately, in an adaptation of the book written by its author, Jessica Knoll, and directed by Mike Barker, “Luckiest Girl Alive” feels as if it’s juggling too many plates – joining the story in progress and laboring to connect the mass shooting to Ani’s story in a way that muddles the mystery. [Mila Kunis](https://www.cnn.com/2022/06/24/world/mila-kunis-stand-with-ukraine-cnnheroes/index.html) produces and stars in this #MeToo-tinged story, which awkwardly incorporates a mass school shooting as well as gender and class politics into what becomes an ungainly mix of hot-button issues in one dramatic package.

Based on the bestselling novel of the same name by Jessica Knoll—who also adapted the screenplay, while Mike Barker directs—Luckiest Girl Alive stars Mila Kunis ...

In the last scene of the film, Ani is stopped on the street by a woman who says she has spent years reporting on Dean and the work he’s done for the gun control movement. She shows the article to Luke, and he’s upset that he didn’t tell her she was doing it. She tells her fiancé she won’t be doing the documentary after all, and will instead write something herself to tell her side of the story. Ani writes an article about the incident and shows it to her editor, who encourages her to make it even more honest. She is just getting to the part where she reveals Dean and Liam raped her when an adult Dean suddenly bursts into the filming and demands to speak to Ani. Tifani is never charged, but she never tells her side of the story… He is furious that Tifani is letting the bullies get away with rape, and urges her to grow a spine. A documentary filmmaker wants to interview her to tell her side of the story. He said that she slept with both Dean and Liam, and went on a revenge rampage after Dean refused to date her. When he confronts Dean, Arthur offers a terrified Tifani the gun and tells her to kill Dean himself. She reports the incident to her teacher, who brings it to the headmaster. But when it all comes bubbling to the surface, she learns how to get her revenge.

It took Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher five years to bring their solar-powered farm at their Beverly Hills home to life.

If you finish watching Netflix's Luckiest Girl Alive without feeling as angry as Ani, you didn't watch it right.

It offers a career-best performance from Mila Kunis and isn’t afraid to throw salt in two giant wounds that can’t and won’t heal until we treat them with the seriousness they demand. Ultimately, the movie is a series of punches to the gut, most of which you never see coming. You never know what she’s going to do or say, and once the movie starts wrapping up and makes the core of her behavior clear, you fully understand and relate to the character. On the other hand, men get the benefit of the doubt, excuses are handed to them on a silver platter, and their entire existence is perceived as nuanced – and you definitely can’t pin them to a single mistake in life, because they are much more than that. Not only is this explicitly stated in a flashback by one of Ani’s teachers, but you constantly hear Ani's voiceover contradicting a lot of what she does and says onscreen. Based on a New York Times best-selling novel by author Jessica Knoll (who also pens the script), Luckiest Girl Alive tells the story of a magazine writer who’s aiming to make it to the top rankings of the writing world.

We’ll have to see if she reveals more secrets about her time on That ’70s Show on social media or during interviews before the reboot premieres on Netflix. Regardless of Mila Kunis’ opinions about her character, That ‘90s Show is sure to be a hit amongst fans of the original series. The actress confirmed that by the time she went to what she called a “producer’s network call,” she’d put an asterisk on her contract.
