Crazy Rich Asians was a gamble on the part of a Hollywood studio to see whether a movie about Asians with a strictly Asian cast would find an audience on this side of the Pacific. They needn't worry though, because with a smartly written screenplay like this, a movie is sure to be a hit.
The cast is led by Constance Wu and Henry Golding, but big talent fills the supporting roles, with Gemma Chan, Lisa Lu, Ken Jeong, the bubbly Awkwafina (in a scene-stealing role), and the magnificent Michelle Yeoh.
THE BOTTOM LINE: A funny comedy with a well written script and excellent actors makes for a surefire crowd pleaser.
Grade: 7.5
