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

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

Ansari, as a filmmaker, is as good-hearted as Gabriel; he makes pretty much everyone onscreen likable.

Good Fortune wants to highlight the gig economy and how hard it is for those living on the margins to keep from falling behind, and like Gabriel, it does best when the plot stays simple and uncomplicated.

More of a political statement than a feel-good comedy movie. Reeces character sounded stiff and the acting just wasnt good. Ill pass on this directors future projects
