Review of The Big Sick (2017) by Sarah F — 07 Jan 2018

I liked and enjoyed all of the cast in "The Big Sick" - especially Holly Hunter who is one of my all time favorite actresses. The film has many humorous and touching moments - it's very relatable.

However, as is the case with most true stories, there isn't a lot of action - and by that I mean no twists and turns, no depth to the story line. Basically one major event takes place which is in the title of the film, and like all romantic comedies, you know the outcome before the first scene plays.

So the one unforgivable thing is that it plays for 2 1/2 hours! Otherwise it has my endorsement as a rental on a long rainy day night.
