A rom com replete with luscious and unexpected views of beautiful Singapore and the local food. The characters are engaging and interesting. The pacing was perfect - there wasn’t a dull moment. The actress who played Constance Wu’s mother, Kheng Hua Tan, stole the show in what few scenes she had, infusing her moments with deep and believable gravity. I hope she’s in the sequel. Overall great movie. Will watch again (actually did!).

Wow so many good reviews from both critics and Tribute viewers. I guess i watched a different movie with the same title as I really didn't think it was very good. It seemed like one of those made-for-TV Hallmark romance shows, except with an all Asian cast and set primarily in Singapore. And no, before everyone gets all bent out of shape, I am not racist and it has nothing to do with the fact it has an Asian cast - I would have found it just as lame if it were an all American cast or an all Swedish cast or an all 'fill in the blank here' cast. It just wasn't that good. Characters were two-dimensional, subplots were not developed very well, and conflicts seemed too easily resolved. It really just reminded me of a made for cable TV movie. Anyway, just my 2 cents (or in this case, my 2 stars). PS - I love Asian people!

This is the type of movie that gives you the feel good and fantasy-escape experience but not equivalent to the outrageous explosive type funny movie like”the Hangover”.
I say Crazy Rich Asians movie is NOT a 5-star movie, I give it 5+ stars; for I still remember the movie with a good feeling.

The movie didn’t have any plot, character or dialogue that was interesting or original. It was the same tired old story set in Singapore, staring asian actors. Very handsome leading man though
