Big Bang Theory star’s “tearjerker” drama with “gut-wrenching ending” finds new UK streaming home

The tearjerker drama starring Jim Parsons, who was on The Big Bang Theory, has found a different UK service to stream it.)

2022’s movie adaptation of Michael Ausiello’s 2017 autobiography shares the title, features Parsons as the author, and revolves around a tumultuous turn in his relationship with Kit (played by Ben Aldridge), who becomes seriously unwell.

Originally directed by Michael Showalter from a screenplay penned by David Marshall Grant and Dan Savage, “Spoiler Alert” initially grossed $1.4 million worldwide upon its initial release. However, following its addition to Netflix on June 9th, the film is poised to reach a broader audience in the UK.

Featuring Sally Field and Antoni Porowski, the movie “Spoiler Alert” garnered favorable feedback from critics despite having a modest performance at the box office. At present, it boasts an impressive approval rating of 87% on Rotten Tomatoes based on 94 reviews.

According to general agreement on the website, the comedy-drama benefited greatly from the powerful acting abilities of its skilled actors. Their performances were praised for preventing the movie from veering too far into overly sweet territory.

The review from Deep Focus Review describes the movie as having a charming romance in the beginning and becoming an emotionally impactful tear-jerker later on, with both elements fulfilling their purpose. Similarly, The Canberra Times labeled it as a primarily heartwarming tear-jerking film.

As a passionate admirer, I can’t help but express my feelings about “Spoiler Alert” – a movie that is breathtakingly beautiful, heartbreakingly devastating, and strikingly honest. It’s a love story that feels incredibly relatable, and I couldn’t agree more with Morbidly Beautiful when they praised its “gut-wrenching ending“. This film truly encapsulates the poignant moments in life that make our existence significant.

The Hollywood Reporter additionally praised it, stating: “This tale delves into the fading of love, the decreasing intensity, the souring of feelings from passion to annoyance, infidelity, and the apparent final blow of a trial separation.

As a gamer, I was just as thrilled when Deadline praised the movie for its quick-witted humor and compassionate directing. The Arizona Republic, on the other hand, called it a masterpiece of balance and tempo that kept me engaged from start to finish.

Spoiler Alert is streaming on Netflix.
