Crazy Rich Asians (2018)

Wonderful character development!

brilliant actors, brilliant editing

How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

REFRESHING AND OPULENT. IT WAS AN EMOTIONAL ROLLER COASTER TO SEE ASIAN REPRESENTATION ON THE BIG SCREEN. BUT BEYOND THAT, I WAS GLAD TO EXPERIENCE A WONDERFUL ROMANTIC COMEDY. I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THE SEQUEL!

Growing up asian, I have always had to stretch my imagination in trying to associate with lead characters. In this movie, it just felt so good to dream big. For people who are dissapointed, it is more than fine. Most people have a sea of American Cinema to swim in, but for Asian-Americans it is a proverbial desert. How this movie differs from other films surrounding Asians like Joy Luck Club, is that this is a fun movie with romantic and heartfelt leads that just happen to be Asian. And that's the point!!! For the first time in American Cinema, we don't have to associate with people who look completely different. This is a movie you can walk out of feeling proud and being excited about how others who are not Asian may see you. I imagine this is how many Italian-Americans felt after seeing Rocky for the first time. It may seem similar to so many rom-coms but it is important to share with other readers that this movie means so very much to me. The acting was wonderful, the dialogue was funny and sincere, and while the film is less about Chinese/Singaporian culture (see Joy Luck Club), it portrays Asians in a playful, sexy, and humorous way. This is not the Asian Black Panther, but I get the comparison. While Black Panther is a movie that so many kids need to diversify their ideas of what a hero looks like; Crazy Rich Asians is a movie that asians can take a date of any persuasion and feel good about.I am giving this movie exactly the number of stars it deserves. Rating this movie within the world of romantic comedies makes this movie a 10. It's value to many minorities out there is priceless.

There are so many comedians in this movie. I loved every minute of it! Great story line..

A fun, delightful time at the movies with some hilarious turns by comedy veterans Ken Jeong and Awkwafina, and heartfelt performances by everyone. The standout is Constance Wu from "Fresh Off the Boat", great to see her in a different role. Highly recommended!
