By the way, one of these films includes a bromance comedy with made-up sports starring Ray Romano, which definitely has our interest peaked.

Slowly but surely, The Big Sick has been rolling out in theaters across America over the last few weeks.

It indeed is one of the best movies of the years, certainly one of the best romantic comedies this side of the 21st century. Also, if you’ve been following the film’s star and co-writer Kumail Nanjiani on Twitter, you’ve seen that the film has been touching to so many different kinds of people in so many wondrous ways.

So, go see it/go see it again in a theater that’s now probably very close to you.

Two protagonists from disparate worlds coming together, against all odds, to fall in love is an oft used formula in the world of romantic comedies.

However, a lot of the time, many of those stories are purely fiction and the verisimilitude takes you out of it.

The Big Sick, written by comedy power couple Kumail Nanjiani and Emily Gordon about how they really did come from very different walks of life, under unusual circumstances, and fell in love, living happily ever after.

Watch the trailer and you’ll see the truth ring in their story as presented in what might be this Summer’s comedy hit.

Look for The Big Sick to come out in limited release on June 23rd and in wide release on July 14th.
