Review of Crazy Rich Asians (2018) by Kman5473 — 28 Aug 2018

I usually hate romcoms because, to be blunt, they're usually boring fluff for the woman you're dating. In this case, I was pleasantly surprised to find that this film is just as funny as it is dramatic and heart-wrenching.

Whenever one of these, "typically mainstream" films get made, I always want them to be unafraid in grounding the film in dramatic realism. By this, I mean the ground rules are set, the characters acknowledge that they're not the center of the universe, and there's actually some relatable content.

Crazy Rich Asians has all of that, and all around it's just a great film. Very funny, but also very well written and acted.
