Critics Consensus

A promising directorial feature debut by Aziz Ansari, Good Fortune's socially-minded humor is given wings by Keanu Reeves' heavenly comedic timing.

Jake Wilson

Sydney Morning Herald

Good Fortune...is a mildly subversive fable about the yearning for big-time success – and also the kind of medium-budget comedy that...nowadays only exists because someone like Ansari has enough TV clout to bring it into being.

Rated: 2.5/5

Clarisse Loughrey

Independent (UK)

Good Fortune is a cinephile’s comedy, patchworked from the likes of It’s a Wonderful Life (1946), Trading Places (1983), and Wings of Desire (1987). It’s more pleasant than it is funny.

Rated: 3/5

Sophie Butcher

Empire Magazine

An anti-capitalist fable that lets down its star power with an underdeveloped script. All of Good Fortune’s good intentions don’t make up for it being such a mediocre time at the movies.

Rated: 2/5

Finds humor and heart in the struggle for meaning, fairness, and connection in an unequal world.

The Movie Cricket

Where Ansari goes off the track with “Good Fortune” is that he’s trying to make both movies — a light comedy and a serious movie about how the working class gets screwed over — and it never gels convincingly on either front.

Rated: 2.5/4

I liked that it's honest about how money could solve most people's problems and I liked that it portrays rich people as the greedy, selfish, unaware losers that they are.

Cute movie sort of like “It’s a Wonderful Life” quite funny but message is a bit off. Keanu seems like from Bill & Ted??
