Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Movie M — 14 Oct 2017
Reviewed 7.7.17. There's a lot to like here. It's generally well written and provides some laugh out loud moments. Kumail's response to Emily's father (Ray Romano) asking him about 9/11 had me cackling.
And although it winds up pretty much exactly as you'd expect, it takes a fairly original path to get there. Perhaps most endearing of all is that it was based on a true story written by the real life Kumail (plays himself) & Emily (played by Zoe Kazan).
It ran a bit long in my opinion; meandering a touch at times. But when you're spending time with characters this likeable, you don't mind going along for the ride.
