I'm not sure how does this movie work if you don't know Kumail and Emily before watching it, either from The Meltdown or any of their other works, but I'd imagine that knowledge (assuming, you know, you don't dislike them) gives the movie a lot of its power.
With this being said, it is a well-done movie, it is funny in parts, sad in other parts, and manages to be funny even when it's sad, which is hard to do. The cast was great, maybe aside from Ray Romano, who basically just plays Ray Romano in every role he gets, a little annoying but not too much.
In short, expect to laugh a little, expect to cry a little, and maybe laugh while you're crying, something like that.
