The distinction here is 'truth'. This is a real tale, written about real personalities and events and moments, but The Big Sick is imbued with a gentle understanding of what makes itself effective for the silver screen. It's achingly aware of the story's limitations, the balancing act between comedy and drama, and its gradual moral resolve. But above all else, the film never attempts a certain level of vérité or overt naturalism. It moves and plays with a tremendous amount of grace, especially in an early relationship montage which moves like a little snapshot of liquid feeling, and it commits to the realities of the situation, but never to a fault.
It's even more interesting structurally. The first-half reeling…
The Big Sick ist ein ganz netter Film, der davon profitiert, dass der Film auf wahren Ereignissen aus Kumail Nanjiani‘s Leben basiert was. Die Handlung ist dadurch nicht komplett wie jede andere rom-com und wirkt persönlicher. Trotzdem ist die Gesamthandlung nicht die originellste und der Film bleibt etwas klischeehaft. Auch habe ich gehört, dass die wahre Geschichte etwas ausgeschmückt wurde, womit sogar die Authentizität etwas verloren geht. Neben einer etwas zu langen Laufzeit war‘s das aber mit dem Kritikpunkten und der Film ist im Großen und Ganzen doch ganz amüsant, charmant und unterhaltsam mit einem guten Cast und soliden Figuren.
Até a metade do filme eu não sabia que o ator principal tava interpretando si mesmo

The real-story aspect of this film probably contributed to the writing by not making it too melodramatic, but it's still very much an average rom-com.

Fan ako ng romcom, fan din ako ng mga based sa true story tapos fan din ako ng stand up pero pre nagfusion lahat ng yan sa film na to. Kumail Nanjiani is more than a stand up comedian and prinove nya sarili nya dito. That scene where nagkalat sya during a ay spoiler, panuorin nyo na lang.
Tolerable. It does feature the best 9/11 joke I've ever heard, but otherwise it's scant of laughs and decidedly too long. Nothing at all remarkable about the direction, and the editing is off. Wish it had more Kazan.
This was an amazingly feel-good movie. I was surprised how much I laughed and I’m sad I didn’t watch this when first released.
