Our take
Good Fortune stars Keanu Reeves as a clumsy angel meddling in a gig worker's life and a CEO's world. Rated R for some drug use and language. Expect marijuana and pill talk, wealth satire, occasional violence, and frequent strong language. Warm tone but adult themes; best for teens 14+
Uplifting themes
Generosity, humility, and second chances shine through Flawed leads learn empathy across class lines
