Good Fortune is a critique of the financial hardship for people in the gig economy working multiple jobs. Its message is delivered in a body swap comedy engineered by an inept low-order guardian angel. Played by Keanu Reeves. Seth Rogen plays a rich tech investor who suddenly has to live the multi-job gig worker life. While Aziz Ansari, who also wrote and directed, swaps his gig economy life for the rich lifestyle and the Hollywood Hills house. It’s social commentary. Done okay. 7/10.

This is social commentary wrapped in a comedy.

It’s okay. It’s not as good on both fronts as The Valet. But then, not much is, in my opinion.

Speaking of Keanu Reeves, you should watch him and Winona Ryder tear sarcastic strips off each other in Destination Wedding. Many people probably skipped it thinking it was a rom-com. It’s not. It’s a fast-talking character satire about two people who dislike each other thrust together travelling to a destination wedding. I loved it 🥰

Watching Good Fortune film on Prime. Keanu Reeves plays a low-level guardian angel.

I hope it’s better than the recent Apple TV film that Keanu Reeves was in. That was unwatchable. I bailed midway through it 💩

This is excellent. Write Now with Scrivener is basically a chat show about multiple topics that people have written about. This month it’s about noticing birds. There’s a bit at the end of each episode singing the praises of Scrivener. Rightly, as it’s a remarkable piece of software.
