I finally had a chance to see one of the most talked about films of this past year, ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ and I can see why it did so well at the box office. While the plot itself has been done before, in fact many, many times before, (rich man, poor girl who fall in love) but the difference is that it is a well made movie! Not to mention, and most importantly, it is the first modern story with an all-Asian cast and an Asian-American lead in 25 years. It's a funny and enjoyable film with some great acting, particularly by Michelle Yeoh, who plays the mom in the film. It is somewhat formulaic but still it works and I definitely recommend this one!
