'All prior hangups and skepticism be damned because 'A Good Person' is actually not a bad movie. In fact, it’s quite good, in a head-scratching, mind-boggling sort of way.' Read Kyndall Cunningham's review:
is actually not a bad movie. In fact, it’s quite good, in a head-scratching, mind-boggling sort of way.
We first meet our soon-to-be tortured protagonist Allison , as she performs a piano ballad for a room full of family and friends. At the start of the film, Allie is an exuberant and funny pharmaceutical rep who’s about to marry her equally charming fiancé Nathan .
This fight sends Allie on a desperate mission to find more opioids, including from a high school classmate in a pivotal, drawn-out scene that strangely earns the most laughs in the entire movie. Soon after, Allie gains some clarity and visits an Alcoholics Anonymous group where Nathan’s father Daniel , who she was never formally introduced to, is also in attendance. Her unresolved guilt from the car accident sends her running out the door, but, as the film necessitates, Daniel follows.
The movie ultimately works in the way most multi-generational, interracial comedies often don’t, in that its characters are working to maintain a common ground that’s already been established. In similar movies, the protagonists would spend the duration of the film trying to find a shared, often unbalanced experience through didactic monologues about difference and tolerance. Braff, thankfully, spares us from this route.
