FULL DISCLOSURE: I saw this while I was working my ass off in a foodtruck at an outdoor cinema. I missed whole chunks of it, and it certainly didn’t have my full focus. I’ll give it a proper chance at a later date, and alongside that, another review. What I did see of _The Big Sick_ certainly held potential for me, I even had one genuine laugh, but American comedies rarely if ever resonate with me. I know this one plays it at a very different angle to your standard Sandler-esque faire, and I appreciate that, but I wasn’t brought in enough from what I caught to get on board.

_Final rating:★★½ – Not quite for me, but I definitely get the appeal._

Good watch, probably won’t watch again, but can recommend if you can handle a medical emergency adventure.

If you’ve seen “A Fault in Our Stars”, this has a similar vibe for a lot of it.

I’m a fan of Kumail Nanjiani, and I like Emily Gordon more, I’m honestly a little disappointed she didn’t star in her own story, but I understand her reasons. Zoe Kazan, Ray Ramono and Holly Hunter are great in this, they all felt very natural.

Now, I know Kumail is the lead, and a good portion of the story focuses on family nonsense, but (even though she’s in a coma for a lot of it) Emily is equally a star in the story. That’s what this is about, because it’s (pretty much) a true story of two people coming together to form one life, and it is SO personal….so very personal. I almost think Kumail wanted to make the movie just so he could stop telling the (rather long) story in person, “Just go watch the movie.”

I know that a lot of it is just truth, but the adaptive writing for this is excellent, the structure keeps a well balanced pace between all the events happening, we have (lots) of loss and (powerful) gains. There is even a good bit of comedy worked into the story, but it is hard to handle the heavy weight of Emily’s medical story. It might be affecting more due to the timing of it in my life, but, regardless, it’s there. It doesn’t make for the most upbeat experience.

Emily, obviously, makes a recovery as it happened in real life, and now Kumail has a movie to remind her that he saved her life *eye roll*.

The end is very uplifting, and sometimes it is nice to see a piece of history on screen, but do be aware that is what this is, for the most part.

I thought it would be good….it was GREAT!
I know, I know 10 out of 10 is A LOT. However I’m not sure how they could top what they have here. Perhaps make it a little longer?? I NEVER leave reviews but I just laughed so hard I started snorting and couldn’t stop for a bit! So did a few others in my row! I think that means something. There were so many times were I was laughing hard enough to cry and where I was smiling from the joy on the screen. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not all roses and whiskey….but it’s def a movie I think everyone should see for a myriad of reasons. I’m so glad this movie was made and that my friend suggested we see it yesterday! I know you’ll enjoy it so…You’re welcome!

Predictable and not very funny
Pakistani-born actor and stand-up comedian Kumail Nanjiani has made a film about his own experiences dating a non-Pakistani girl. His family members didn’t accept the fact that he loved his girlfriend, and kept on setting up dates with Pakistani girls, as is the custom in that country.

Instead of a drama about the consequences of these culture clashes, Nanjiani made a lighthearted film, following the classic screenplay structure of the romantic comedy. Boy meets girl, falls in love, has to overcome all kinds of setbacks and problems, is rejected by the girl, but keeps on trying, and ultimately succeeds in winning her love. Everything is so predictable that the jokes must be really good to make up for the unimaginative screenplay.

Unfortunately, they’re not. I counted one really good joke (about 9/11) and a handful in the category ‘not bad’. But overall, this movie lacks the wit and humour that you’d expect from a film that was praised at Sundance. The jokes are flat and the running gags, like the endless parade of Pakistani marriage candidates, are boring.

So, the film is predictable and not very funny. That wouldn’t have mattered if Nanjiani had turned his own experiences in a really heartfelt drama about how in some immigrant communities traditional parents try to arrange marriages for their unwilling offspring. And how this can lead to devastating consequences, like parents disowning their children. In ‘The Big Sick’, this fact is presented in the offhand manner which of course is typical for comedies.

The theme of arranged marriages in immigrant communities made me think of the excellent German/Turkish movie about this subject, ‘When we leave’. That film was like a punch in the stomach. ‘The Big Sick’ is like listening to someone trying in vain to be funny.

There is only one thing I really liked in this film: Holly Hunter’s part as the mother of Nanjiani’s love interest. The way she completely played everyone else off the screen, for example with a wonderful and completely unexpected outburst of grief-induced anger, was absolutely great.
