Feel good film
This is me
I was expecting good I got spectacular
I haven't seen a film that is a proper family feel good film made like this in years. It's a great concept and story delivered perfectly by every actor on the screen. The song This is me is brilliant while all are this one just stand out the most for me.

I had never heard anything from this Indian-American comedian, but I was excited cause I'm always down for stand-up.
It's important to know going in that his stand up is pretty heavily political and definitely left-leaning. That in and of itself didn't bother me. In fact, I found quite a bit of that part hilarious (the Trump bit and the Universal healthcare bit). However, I discovered that a solid hour+ of that material does start to feel heavy handed. Especially when the last 15 minutes or so feel more like a sermon and less like a stand up.
If you lean that way or are an American immigrant, you will probably enjoy it much more than me. For me it was a bit much by the end.
