Atom User Reviews for The Big Sick
Very well written and super cute movie, great banter. I cried, I laughed, I absolutely loved it. And it was a true story?! Doesn't get better. The acting was amazing as well.
We slept off
The plot was slow, but also sweet. I expected it to be a bit more comical but that's just based on my sense of humor, the ending felt a bit rushed.
Best romantic comedy in years...
The best!
Liked the expression of disease in the movie , I never thought there could be a disease of healthy tissue of the body being affected because antibodies think the healthy to be diseased. Quite medically sound movie. Plus the subtle racism that has been hinted at quite…
Laughed so much that it hurt and cried just as much
A very sweet and insightful movie about how the main character met his actual wife and what he went through.
We really enjoyed it.
Be ready to cry!
I never felt how sad it would be to ever have to choose between my family and someone I loved. This made me cry. But such an insightful look into the writers life
I really loved it and Zoe Kazan gives another great and sweet performance, just like Ruby and What if she shows the world why she is the perfect girl for these type of roles, and kumal is very real but thought his jokes and through his comedy. Love the movie.

Metacritic
The Big Sick makes good use of some vintage Nanjiani 9/11 comebacks, some winning (if not new) backstage backbiting comedy club observations and marvelous, heartfelt work by three great actors who carry their leading man and his overlong, not-a-million-laughs “personal” story across the finish line.
Nanjiani is engaging throughout, though the scenes of his standup routine are a little confusing. He’s not funny, not even slightly. Is he supposed to be? That’s not clear.
For the vast majority of its running time, The Big Sick astutely pulls you between the twin poles of agony and glee.
