The brief
A new Netflix production titled 'Don't Say Good Luck' has garnered critical acclaim, debuting with a perfect 100% review score on Rotten Tomatoes. The film is described as a theater-kid comedy-drama starring Sunny Sandler, the daughter of actor Adam Sandler. According to reports from AP News and the Los Angeles Times, the movie serves as a showcase for Sunny Sandler, while also featuring a performance by Melanie Lynskey. Axios notes that the production has roots in Washington, D.C., adding a specific geographical context to the film's origins. Extensive coverage from Forbes, Yahoo, and IMDb emphasizes the rarity of this critical reception, with IMDb noting that the score ties an all-time record.
Forbes specifically highlights the film as Netflix's best new movie based on this metric. The media attention extends beyond the critical scores to the personal nature of the project; People.com reports that Adam Sandler appeared on the red carpet alongside his family to support his daughter's cinematic debut. The film is being framed by Yahoo as a standout comedy-drama that deserves a top ranking. This trend coincides with activity surrounding the Paw Patrol franchise, though the projects are distinct. The Toronto Star and Roger Ebert have focused on 'PAW Patrol: The Dino Movie,' with the latter describing it as effective fare for children.
Forbes reports that this specific Paw Patrol entry has also set a record for its Rotten Tomatoes review score. While 'Don't Say Good Luck' targets a dramedy audience, the Paw Patrol expansion involves new cast featurettes, toy releases reported by Yahoo, and discussions regarding the canon of the Canadian mega-franchise. Observers are currently monitoring the longevity of the record-tying score for 'Don't Say Good Luck' as more reviews likely emerge. Attention is also focused on the commercial expansion of the Paw Patrol world, including the reception of 'The Dino Movie' and the accompanying merchandise. The coverage suggests a period of high critical performance for both niche streaming dramedies and major children's franchises, with both Sunny Sandler's debut and the latest Paw Patrol film achieving notable status on review aggregators.
