Rating: A+ -- I loved all the supporting performances but I honestly think Ray Ramano and Holly Hunter are nomination worthy as Emily's parents. Full Review

[T]hanks to Nanjiani and Gordon’s script -- equally funny, frank, and frightening -- THE BIG SICK emerges as an unshakeable comedy made by, and for, a generation rediscovering what intimacy means.

THE BIG SICK is an enormous crowdpleaser, funny and touching in about equal measure, built atop an intense experience, and wise about the ways we interact with both our own parents and those of the people we date.

Rating: 8/10 -- If you're in the mood for a heartwarming romantic drama which manages to tackle some heavy themes, then The Big Sick might be right up your alley. Just don't expect Mamma Mia and you'll have a great time. Full Review

4 stars out of 5 -- Directed with loose-limbed, naturalistic charm by Michael Showalter, this poignant, insightful and consistently funny film has ANNIE HALL-style authenticity.

Product Description:

A Pakistani-American standup comedian (Kumail Nanjiani) falls for a white grad student (Zoe Kazan), and decides to keep their uncertain romance a secret from his traditionalist, Muslim family. However, their relationship gets more serious when she develops a mysterious illness, which in turn forces him to bond with her parents (Holly Hunter and Ray Romano). Emily V. Gordon and Nanjiani wrote this romantic comedy, which is based on their real-life courtship. THE BIG SICK made its world premiere at the 2017 Sundance Film Festival.
