I am so pleasantly surprised about this movie. The story of one large chinese/american family where one member questions the long lived family traditons really lives up to the hype.
And despite the somewhat sad central topic the movie is very funny.
Awkwafina does an Excellent job (and I didnt know how pretty she was) as the sensitive and strong willed Billie and the movie with her at the center is a joy to experience.
Highly recommend 9/10
What did you think?

Totally agree. May get a few comparisons to Crazy Rich Asians but this felt so much more in depth, with more substance. Highly recommended.

8/10 -Why did HAO HAO start crying at the wedding?
-The characters kept bringing up that BILLI couldn't afford the flight, but we never found out how she got the money. |

It was okay. It was cute endearing and a little annoying. Like that fat lipped groom who never spoke and always cried. He was annoying.

why phoned in? what gives you the impression? It doesn't like anything I haven't seen before in mainstream Asian cinema. I feel like I would go in knowing what to expect and get exactly what I expected. i think you will be pleasantly suprised. to me its not a mainstream movie probably dor any culture. its much more nuanced, daring in its use of languages, and with exquisite writing and acting. |
