Good Grief Review: Dan Levy’s Directorial Debut Is A Mixed Bag

After conquering television with his Emmy-winning series Schitt’s Creek, Dan Levy returns to writing with his first feature, Netflix’s Good Grief. In what is also his directorial debut, he turns to the theme of grief — something most people are, unfortunately, all too familiar with — and examines its effects on a trio of friends. The result isn’t exactly original, nor is it especially revelatory, but it does lead to some moments of genuine heart, partially because of the excellent cast Levy has assembled.
