Arj is a gig economy employee who hates his life and hates his jobs. He is currently a food delivery guy who is tipped poorly and gets bad ratings. Jeff, on the other hand, is a very wealthy venture capitalist who thinks nothing of having an ownership stake in restaurants so he can jump the line ahead of the gig workers who are waiting to get food for other people. Arj delivers food to Jeff and amazingly gets hired by Jeff to be his assistant and then just as quickly gets summarily dismissed. Gabriel is an angel with very small
Aziz Ansari's GOOD FORTUNE is a wretched, unfunny, and incredibly insulting movie to anyone who has ever been poor. It is superficial in its understanding of the gig economy and I was so livid that I wanted to scream. It is poorly directed, with high caliber actors reduced to stiff performances, I counted two moments when the actors looked in the camera. Aziz Ansari is a privileged asshole who is as much of an auteur as Uwe Boll. Fuck him and fuck this movie.
As much as I like Keanu Reeves as an action hero (#Matrix & #JohnWick), I've never liked him in lighter fair.
He stars in #GoodFortune, which was a movie that I was definitely NOT interested in seeing at the theater but I took a look at it on an #AltStreaming channel & my decision to skip it at the theater was confirmed.
I could only watch 20 mins of it before reading the entire plot on #Wiki & skipping ahead to see how it ended.
I viewed it as a lesser grade version of #HeavenCanWait (1943 &/or 1978) & #ItsAWonderfulLife (1946).
I suggest you watch one of those instead, if you want to see movie about an angel saving souls which is what Good Fortune is supposedly about.
Good Fortune is a fun movie that I encourage you to enjoy. It takes aim at the gig economy work experience, competing with robots, out-of-touch wealthy who literally look down on regular people, highlights unionization struggles and so much more that anyone who's held a real job can relate to. And the angel Gabriel (Keanu) clothing choice seems to be a nod to Columbo. Bonus!

You won't be missing anything. 🤷
Actually just found the #SmashingMachine & #TronAres on an alt streaming channel.
Gotta remember to check the #AltStreaming channels for movies that I'm just luke warm about watching, which included both of these.🤦♂️
So, I'mg oing to watch #TronAres on the alt streaming channel instead watching the time & $ at my local theater.
PS: Just found #GoodFortune on an alt streaming channel too! 😉
Will wait to take a look at #GoodFortune on an alt streaming channel .
Should have done that for the #SmashingMachine. 👎
Going to take a chance on #TronAres at my local #AMC later today.
Hope it's better than its poor box office numbers suggest. 🙏
Aziz Ansari’s #GoodFortune delivers real laughs and heart. Keanu Reeves shines as a clueless angel, while Keke Palmer grounds the comedy with warmth and wit. One of the year’s smartest and most feel-good films.
