Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Chris B — 24 Jul 2017
The Big Sick is not your average run in the mill comedy. This film has heart, is extremely funny with some laugh out loud moments, and excellent drama. This film is far from cliche and has a great message.
Kumail Nanjiana, Zoe Kazan, Holly Hunter, and Ray Romano are the stand outs. I really loved all the bits between Kumail and Ray they work really good together. The romance felt real between Kumail and Zoe and felt like they were a real couple and you were actually rooting for them.
In my opinion what really makes this film great is the side characters. In most RomComs we only learn about our two main characters well in The Big Sick we learn about both of their parents and they both are relied on heavy in the film.
The directing was also great. Michael Showalter made you feel like you were a fly on the wall watching real events. Basically this movie is great and you should go out and see it immediately!
