This year has been full of comedic duds (you’re not forgiven for Baywatch yet, Rock). The lone standout is Kumail Nanjiani’s quasi-autobiographical tale about a stand-up comedian who falls for a young grad student (Zoe Kazan), breaks up with her because of his Pakistani family, then figures out his real feelings when she’s in a coma. At a time when Hollywood has a dearth of comedic leading men, Nanjiani proves himself a true superstar.
