CRAZY RICH ASIANS


CRAZY RICH ASIANS: The first movie since "The Joy Luck Club" to have an all-Asian cast, this is a winner all across the boards. Filmed mainly in Singapore, it is a look at the wealthy Asian society that most of us will never know.   And some of them are crazy!   It's funny, touching and a sumptuous film.  Beautiful to look at (it's almost a travelogue) with a wonderful "pop" score.   It concerns the scion of a wealthy family bringing his Chinese-American girlfriend home for a wedding and to meet his family.  And what a wedding it is, unlike any you've ever seen, it's simply magnificent.  But mamma is not happy and that is the basis of the plot for this outing.  A splendid cast and a wonderful script make this one to remember.   I recommend it, whole-heartedly.  You won't be disappointed.
