Movies Watched -- Crazy Rich Asians (2018)

Added on by C. Maoxian.

120 minute running time so at least 20 to 30 minutes too long. Avoided this one for a long time and wanted to hate it, but Constance Wu is so lovable that you have to find it silly fun, even if you don’t want to. I don’t know why it wasn’t titled Crazy Rich Chinese, because all the rich people in Singapore (and the rest of southeast Asia) are Chinese, but it probably wouldn’t go over as well, esp. in neighboring Indonesia, where the Chinese have regularly been massacred for being too rich. Anyway, it’s a silly, cute romcom that a mainstream audience can embrace, way too long, but I didn’t hate it. Yellow rating, er, yeah, yellow at best.
