the last three scenes in this movie make for as satisfying an ending as i've ever seen in a romantic comedy, thanks to some very clever (and concise) writing and the inarguable fact that Michelle Yeoh is an ab-so-lute LEGEND in her own time.

Scarlett Johansson could never

my advance screening had so many gasps, there was so many laughs and all that. this film has so much heart and is instantly one of my favorite rom coms since bridget jones’ baby. everything from the soundtrack, those beautiful shots and places where this film is made, it’s all so gorgeous even the costume wear is just divine. THE WEDDING SCENE!!!!!!.....
 the dialogue between characters is powerful and smart especially, the comedic dialogue between characters and the performances is everything I wanted in a rom com. this film doesn’t come out in another week so I of course will be seeing it again next week so please. do me a favor and totally check this movie out. you won’t regret it.

i legitimately love how many things in this movie were so unapologetically Asian (and for Asian people) that they did not care to take time and explain them for general (read: white, american) audiences.

the acting is rote, the comedy doesn’t land for me, the characters’ actions and conflicts are all handled so strangely, and i do not think jon m. chu is a very good director– but if only for the wedding scene, i hope the production designer for this movie gets the courtesy Oscar nom that is usually reserved for some boring ass period piece where all the dresses have seventy angles

A generic affair. Unnecessary subplots, dragged out pacing, few laughs. There are no subversions of cliches, story beats, or characters. It is light and digestible but the critical acclaim heaped on it is stunning. 

5/10

I kind of felt that this was - on balance - more of a “woman’s film”, yet core themes of dignity, inner-strength and self-belief are so well-depicted and delivered with such charm and amiability that it’s a really difficult movie to dislike. So even though I didn’t think it was quite aimed at me, I still ended up enjoying this anyway! Performances are all on-point and I reckon Awkwafina is a bit of a fucking star. A really sweet film. I know my Mom is gonna love it.

We all like to paddle in the shallow end every now and then.

On est charmé par les personnages, ébloui par la beauté des décors et touchés par l'histoire d'amour, que demander de plus d'une comédie romantique?

Even better than the book!!!! I love this film so much. It could not be a more perfect adaptation of the book. It's extremely loyal to the book but also enhances it - Nick and Rachel have much more personality and chemistry than comes across in the book, and it is super cool to see spectacles like Colin and Araminta's wedding come to life on screen. It might be the best rom com ever, especially if you enjoy wealth porn (which I do. A lot).

Was cheesy but it was meant to be anyway. 

I loved the whole plot and I loved the fact it had hardly any white people in it for once, also Nick Young is gorgeous.

This review may contain spoilers. I can handle the truth.

'Sinetron' banget. Opera sabun. Cerita standard si miskin fall in love dengan si kaya raya, kemudian ibunya gak setuju, and so on, and so on. Plus-nya, detail-nya ok, risetnya mendalam, dan film ini disebut sebut film Hollywood yang pake lead actor dan actresses Asia setelah 25 tahun, juga mengetengahkan kisah soal kehidupan lifestyle orang Asia. Gak menggambarkan stereotype orang Asia di film Hollywood yang selalu jadi kungfu, mafia, atau bahkan orang yang genius

Btw, Gemma Chan cakeup. Saingan sama Constance Wu. Hahahaha.
Tapi dari segi acting Awkwafina juara karena bisa meranin karakter Peik Lin dengan gokil.

i, an asian, went to see crazy rich asians, by my asian self, excited to have an amazing time but racists ruined my screening so i dont think i can rate it atm
