Before streaming came along, it wasn’t unheard of that a romantic comedy would make over 100 million dollars. People flocked to the films of two people, usually at odds with one another, before slowly falling in love. Recently, Anyone But You, starring Sydney Sweeney and Glenn Powell, gave hope that films like these aren’t finished. Back in the 90’s, the Queen of this genre was Meg Ryan.

The Big Sick takes this advice and creates something incredibly heartfelt and funny. Romantic comedies are a dime a dozen and this one is definitely one that sticks out among the pack.
