Leave your thoughts about The Big Sick.
| Time OutJoshua RothkopfDirector Showalter does a beautiful job of twining Nanjiani and Romano’s similar slump — you smile at what a perfect almost-father and son they already are — and he steers Hunter to a rapprochement of uncommon complexity and grace. And we thought we were watching a Judd Apatow film. |
| Consequence of SoundDominick Suzanne-MayerIt’s a perfect marriage of direction, performances, and writing, the kind of comedy that people eagerly wait for. Its solutions aren’t easy, and its paths unusual, but it’s a love story that completely earns its emotional peaks, and the kind of comedy that makes you wish every single one of them were this great. |
| Birth.Movies.Death.Meredith BordersIt's the best kind of romantic comedy, small in scope but vast in impact, and a reminder of just how great the genre can be when we give it the chance. |
| HeyUGuysNathan McVayAn intensely personal film, a triumph for Kumail Nanjiani, and one of the most hilarious and personal films this year. |
| Wall Street JournalJoe MorgensternIt’s hilariously hyperverbal, yet wonderfully heartfelt. |
| New York TimesManohla DargisI fell hard for both Ms. Kazan and Mr. Nanjiani and The Big Sick, which tells a great story with waves of deep feeling and questions of identity and makes the whole thing feel like a breeze. |
| Deadline Hollywood DailyPete HammondA cross cultural romance with surprising twists and turns makes for great comedy AND great drama . Kumail Nanjiani's true life tale is one not to miss. |
| Toronto StarPeter HowellHilarious and heartbreaking with no clear trajectory, frequently catching viewers off guard, it's a rom-com of both heart and brain about a couple tested by illness and clashing cultures. |
| Washington PostAnn HornadayIt’s a movie that not only puts human imperfections and incongruities on display, but also revels in them. |
| Georgia StraightAdrian MackWith his welcome appearance at the top of the bill, Silicon Valley's Kumail Nanjiani is just one of the good reasons to catch this summer charmer. |
