The plot involves a disastrous life-swap between a struggling gig worker and his wealthy boss—all thanks to Keanu's well-meaning (but inept) celestial being. We break down the laughs, the life lessons, and whether Reeves can nail the art of divine comedy!💡 Fun Film Fact: Despite playing a character known for his Matrix action roles, Keanu Reeves fractured his kneecap on the set of Good Fortune after tripping over a rug!
