Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Lamontraymond — 22 Jun 2017
Easily the best romantic comedy since Silver Linings Playbook. Just a great, great film. It's refreshing to see a comedic actor who is able to cross-over to drama - when necessary - to pull off a heavy sequence.
Kumail is really amazing in this part, and the supporting cast is phenomenal. Ray Romano and Holly Hunter are pitch perfect casting choices. And I love Kumail's on-screen family. They didn't feel like comedy caricatures played for laughs.
His dad, in particular - the same guy who played the therapist in Silver Linings - is always amazing. It's a slam-dunk summer film amidst a minefield of crappy, big-budget, comic book fare.
