Can't help but love Keanu
They fully banked on Keanu just being the most lovable man, and it works. I can't imagine this movie working with any other actor in his role.
The movie takes a little time to set up, but once they get into the high concept storyline, there are a lot of good laughs, especially between Seth and Keanu.
If you're a fan of Aziz's style of humor or if you just want some Keanu content, then you'll have fun watching this movie.

Funny and Charming With Heavy Themes
Good Fortune is funny, charming, but heavy with its themes.
The writing is great. The characters are all very likeable and no matter how much money one has, they can relate to all of them in one way or another. This script doesn't want to hide its themes. The film is heavily anti-capitalist or at least it heavily criticizes it. Usually I hate when movies preach, but it totally worked here, because this film is a very funny comedy. To be exact, the first half is very slow, but the back half is just utter fun.
As I said the first half is slow and also messy. I wasn't fan of the way the little time jumps occured and the way they were edited. I think some of those scenes could've been cut. They tried to edit them like a slow montage, but on the one hand they slowed the movie down and on the other hand the editing was too fast there and there was no comedic timing. The cinematography is great though. The camera movement is restrained, but the angles and the lighting are awesome. The production design and the acting performances are great too, while the soundtrack is awesome.
Good Fortune is a great comedy with heavy themes that rather elevate the comedy than ruin it.

⭐ Good Fortune (2025) - Review
Good Fortune is a breezy romantic comedy that delivers exactly what you'd expect: laughs, charm, and a feel-good story. The film thrives on its witty dialogue and the undeniable chemistry between the leads, which keeps the energy light and engaging throughout.
What stands out most is the movie's ability to mix humor with moments of genuine warmth. It doesn't try to reinvent the genre, but it embraces the classic rom-com formula in a way that feels refreshing rather than stale. The pacing is tight, the supporting cast adds plenty of flavor, and the overall vibe is colorful and uplifting.
If you're looking for a film that will put you in a good mood without demanding too much emotional investment, Good Fortune is a solid pick. It's the kind of movie perfect for a cozy night in.

Very Important in 2025
It's really touching the vein in the modern world. It shows that many people are struggling in developed counties. Its very FUNNY and really a good watch. It's a brilliant take on "A Christmas Carol". Just watch it. It's a brilliant watch and I imagine that the cast and crew will not be recognised for how great the movie is. But they deserve our applause. Thanks.
Lots of laughs, but a hard watch if you've been there
This movie had me laughing so hard, but also crying my eyes out whenever I wasn't laughing. I don't know how intentional that was, but watching this movie brought me back to the moments I truly lived these moments. I think many of us know how it feels, especially if you've experienced chronic homelessness like I have. Life in today's gig economy is soul crushing. And this film acknowledges that while trying to also pull you out of it by not just telling you you're not alone, but truly making you FEEL like you're not alone. It doesn't give unrealistic answers or solutions, it doesn't pretend like the ending is always happily ever after. But it does tell you that there is someone out there with you to make things just the littlest bit better. To make things just a little less harder. And that is worth sticking around.

- WissenswertesThe trailer for Good Fortune (2025) prominently features the song "Do you Wanna Funk?" by Sylvester. The same song is used in an early scene in Trading Places (1983). It's use in the new movie's trailer is seemingly a nod to the similar storyline the two films share, where a wealthy white character and less-well-off minority character have their lives swapped.
