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 Oct 29, 2025 Full Review 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 Oct 24, 2025 Full Review 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 Oct 22, 2025 Full Review Jeffrey Lyles Lyles' Movie Files When the comedy is on point, Good Fortune is divine. It just needed a bit more emphasis on laughs instead of lessons to be heavenly.  Rated: 7.5/10 Nov 22, 2025 Full Review Dionar Hidalgo Algo Más Que Cine A charming but uneven fable. Ansari blends fantasy, class critique and gentle comedy, though the script is overly literal. Keanu Reeves shines as a lovable, misguided angel, giving warmth to a debut that’s heartfelt, funny and flawed in equal measure. Rated: 6/10 Nov 21, 2025 Full Review Harris Dang Impulse Gamer The chemistry between the actors is a blessing that makes Good Fortune take flight and be as great as it is. It successfully balances fish-out-of-water humour, politically charged social commentary, and quiet contemplation. Recommended. Rated: 4/5 Nov 17, 2025 Full Review Read all reviews

Nina Slow and fun comedy that was a breath of fresh air. The viewpoints on the gig economy were spot on and relatable. Definitely something I would watch again. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 11/23/25 Full Review Brent Late on rating this movie but I really enjoyed it. I'm a big Keanu Reeves fan and he was excellent in this movie. Seth Rogen does a great job as well playing his character. Lots of laughs and heart warming. I loved it and definitely recommend! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/18/25 Full Review Facebook U Has the feel of trading places mixed with some freaky Friday. The humor is there and the context of today’s tough economic environment is well place. It was refreshing to see Keanu Reeves not on a murder revenge bloodbath tour. Aziz Ansari & Seth Rogen work well together and the cast came together perfectly. Good Fortune is a well put together film that won’t get the love it deserves. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 11/18/25 Full Review Asingingfool Such a rich and great film. Well thought out! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/18/25 Full Review SJ A great social commentary on today’s society. Funny and poignant. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/17/25 Full Review Leofandgo good movie to think. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/16/25 Full Review Read all reviews
