Keanu Reeves, the epitome of angelic charm, graces the screen in Aziz Ansari's heavenly comedy, 'Good Fortune'. But here's where it gets controversial... While the film could have been a lively two-hander with Ansari and Seth Rogen, it's Reeves who brings the supernatural spark. As Gabriel, a mid-tier guardian angel, he descends from the heavens (or more accurately, a rooftop) to inject life into the story. The plot revolves around Arj, a financially strained LA resident, who finds himself in a series of odd jobs and situations. After a series of unfortunate events, Gabriel steps in, offering a unique solution to Arj's woes. But is it a blessing or a curse? The film explores the pitfalls of wealth and the gap between the haves and have-nots, with a dash of humor and a sprinkle of supernatural intervention. While the main plot works, a subplot focusing on Gabriel's human experiences adds depth. Reeves' performance is a standout, bringing a range of emotions to the character. However, some may argue that the film could have benefited from more development of the supporting cast. Yet, the chemistry between the leads is undeniable, and the film leaves a lasting impression. So, is 'Good Fortune' a heavenly comedy or a mere mortal? It's up to the audience to decide, with a thought-provoking question lingering in the air: Can a little bit of heaven make our world a better place?
