The two main stars were good, but Romano and Hunter were great as Emily's parents. The writing is at times hilarious, but also works great in its serious moments.

Nanjiani inserts his jokes at the ready, but not like a typical comedy. Humor is his coping mechanism and the jokes spill out of him when he can't find "normal" words to express himself. He's awkward and hilarious, and this inappropriate sputtering of jokes lets the humor flow without tearing out the emotional heart of the drama. The Big Sick took me by surprise...funny, touching, exciting, moving, and very honest.

The Big Sick manages to hit all the right notes emotionally, while at the same time still being pretty funny. It's a film that finds its heart amidst personal tragedy and features some powerful performances, not the least by Kumail himself in a role that is clearly deeply personal. I especially liked how the film doesn't fall for a typical Hollywood happy ending, but instead allows its characters to experience the true ups and downs of the whirlwind of life.

The only thing stopping me from rating higher are the too-cliched-for-real-life bits scattered throughout, though the whole thing is more than earnest enough to give those cliches a cover of plausibility. Tons of quotable lines every time a lame standup set is immediately followed by a standup scenario playing out in real time. The two sets of parents kept on stealing scenes from Nanjiani, whose entry into acting was long overdue.
