Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Dawdlingpoet — 27 Nov 2021
This is a pretty decent film - its a little slow and perhaps could be seen as a bit too 'PC' by some, in as much as being a 'diversity tick box exercise' sort of a film but I thought it didn't do too badly at putting across things from the Kumail's (the new boyfriend's) angle.
It would be hard not to feel sorry for him. Its a somewhat thought provoking watch - perhaps a bit cliched but not a bad watch overall, although not an entirely memorable one in the long run. Also, I thought that Ray Romano did particularly well, playing the more laidback and considerate parental figure, Terry.
I liked that its based on a true story.
