Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Matt W — 17 Jul 2017

Finally got a chance to see it and I surprisingly loved this film. I was going into this movie expecting it to a little bit of humor and a little more drama but no it's surprisingly hilarious from start to finish. I loved the onscreen chemistry between Kumail played as himself and Emily played by Zoe Kazan. All the characters were very believable and natural. I was very invested with all the characters in the movie. I thought Emily's parents played by Ray Romano and Holly Hunter were amazing.

Overall, I thought the film was great from start to finish. I thought it was very well directed and written film and the jokes were very on point. I never thought I would laugh this much in the theater. And it's a true story based on Kumail's life. This is one of the best films I've seen all year so far and it made into my top five list. This is not your traditional boy meets girl type of movie. I honestly can't find any negatives. Go see the movie, it's definitely worth watching and worth your time in the theater.
