Good Fortune: A Heartwarming Flip of Fate

This month, I was quite excited to watch a movie by Kiano Reeves because it is a light-hearted fantasy comedy, different from Reeves' other movies. The movie is named Good Fortune, in which we mainly see three people. It is primarily the story of three individuals: Seth Rogin, Aziz Ansari, and Kiano Reeves. Here, Kiano Reeves plays an angel who helps people. He saves them from dying. For example, if someone is driving a car and getting distracted, he comes and warns them.

Aziz Ansari’s character is a struggling person. He came to America in search of the American dream, thinking he would come here and earn a lot of money. But now he is doing multiple jobs to manage his expenses. His father thinks he is doing quite well here. On the other hand, Seth Rogin’s character is the owner of a very wealthy company. Seeing his life, Aziz Ansari feels very depressed. He wishes he had such a life.

One day, Aziz Ansari’s character, who is a poor and completely helpless person, becomes so desperate that even his car, in which he used to sleep, is taken away. There, Kiano Reeves feels that this is a lost soul and he should help him. After that, he swaps Aziz Ansari’s life with Seth Rogin’s life, who is a rich person. Now the poor person becomes rich, and the rich person becomes poor.

What happens next, you have to see in the movie. The movie is engaging from the start. As soon as it begins, it hooks you. Perhaps the reason is that it has Kiano Reeves, which keeps our expectations high. But that expectation is fulfilled. The movie doesn’t feel boring at any point from start to finish. The movie is kept short. Its pace is fast. Everything that happens in the movie, in my opinion, is just right. I didn’t find any unnecessary parts in the movie.

I wouldn’t call this movie extraordinary or groundbreaking, but still, it is a very good light-hearted movie. If you want to watch a light-hearted fantasy movie, the performances of the three main characters in this movie were very appealing to me. The chemistry between Seth Rogin, Aziz Ansari, and Kiano Reeves is also fantastic. The special thing is that Aziz Ansari is in the main lead in this movie. He has written the movie and directed it as well. His direction felt quite impressive to me.

The movie’s production is also quite good. Although it didn’t require much production value. Despite being a fantasy movie, you don’t get to see any magical world or magic in it. With minimal or no heavy VFX, they have made a very good movie.

My final verdict for this movie is that you can watch it with the whole family. But unfortunately, this movie is not yet available in Hindi. However, after some time, it will definitely be available in the Hindi language on Prime Videos or Netflix, most likely on Prime Videos. I would rate this movie 7.5/10 because I found it quite good.
