Quiz Lady is a comedy movie starring Awkwafina and Sandra Oh. With Will Ferrell, Holland Taylor, and Jason Schwartzman.
Quiz Lady is one of those films that knows how to strike a balance and stray away from light comedy when necessary, without veering into vulgarity.
It’s pleasant, charming, and features two actresses, Awkwafina and Sandra Oh, who deliver fantastic performances as sisters.
This comedy always manages to stay true to its comedic nature, even if it’s ultimately a family comedy that doesn’t preach life lessons and has characters who don’t take themselves too seriously.
Highly enjoyable to watch.
Quiz Lady Movie Review
This comedy doesn’t aim to go down in cinema history, and it won’t, but it knows its place as a parody, with slightly elaborated and well-constructed characters.

A ho-hum road trip comedy pairs the actors as childlike sisters with only all-too-brief moments of hilarity on the way
It’s a grand Hollywood tradition for an established star to play against the ambition and drive that makes a career – to play a loser, a weirdo, a shut-in. Or, at the very least, a debased and dysfunctional version of themselves. The new Hulu comedy Quiz Lady stars the comedian Awkwafina – Aka the dramatic actor Nora Lum, who stole scenes in Crazy Rich Asians and won accolades for her work as a grieving granddaughter in The Farewell – in loser drag as Annie Yum, a slouchy thirtysomething recluse long obsessed with a daily televised quiz show. The film’s hook is her pairing with Sandra Oh, playing against type as Annie’s brash Peter Pan of an older sister, Jenny.
Good premise, bumpy ride. Quiz Lady, directed by Jessica Yu from a screenplay by Jen D’Angelo,...
