Rachel Chu, an American-born Chinese NYU professor, travels with her boyfriend, Nick to his hometown of Singapore for his best friend's wedding. Before long, his secret is out: Nick's family is wealthy, and he's considered the most eligible bachelor in Asia. Every single woman is incredibly jealous of Rachel and wants to bring her down. —JAP. Uploaded By: FREEMAN November 12, 2018 at 12:02 PM. Director. Tech specs. Movie Reviews. A rallying cry for class warfare. Crazy Rich Asians is just wealth porn built around a middling rom-com. All I see is the suffering of the working classes and the corrupt decadence of the wealthy. The opening scene is downright absurd. As a Brit of Oriental descent, Britain's never been that racist as depicted, and certainly never in 1995. At worst, I could imagine the working class porters making a sneering racist remark under his breath, or when he thought he was out of earshot. The idea that a professor of economics isn't respected and admired is nonsense. Asians love elite education - Singapore was built by a Cambridge maths genius and their government still pays for lots of Singaporeans to study there. Professors certainly aren't broke and no strangers to mixing with high-net-worth individuals e.g. university donors. Not introducing yourself as an economics professor at NYU to a Princess that published a paper you want to discuss is bonkers. In fact, you're probably already met at a conference. No-one gets into Cambridge to study law just to quit because they got married. No-one. Focussing on only one ethnic group in Singapore is utterly unrealistic. Singapore is a nation of immigrants. Why would the mother have a problem with being immigrant such that Rachel would bring it up? 'Asian' only means Oriental in the USA. which is a problem for the non-US world. The real problem with the film is that it's really a film about Asian Americans, not Asians. Somewhat Taliban-ish. I'm all about women's beauty and power. Women's bodies are beautiful, natural and should be shown off because that is nature. Here we see none of that whatsoever. Even a scene on a ship the women's body are hidden. And none of them are fat either. Very anti nature and weird. Formulaic twaddle. Gosh, I wish someone would come up with a new formula for a so-called rom com. Pity the fools who had to watch this in the cinema because they are doing oriental girls. This turkey tries hard with some name cred. No spoilers here - follows the formula exactly and badly. Badly if you're the unfortunate viewer. There are faster ways to see oriental thin chicks (my local spa is full of them). Here's Where To Stream ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ If You Want To Watch It On Repeat. The best part of the romantic comedy revival is when it gets cold and dark outside, there are plenty of joyful romcoms to keep you warm on the inside. Netflix has plenty, from The Kissing Booth to To All The Boys I've Loved Before , but most can agree The Romcom Of 2018 was Crazy Rich Asians . By the time it was done in theaters, the film has grossed $174 million and scored two Golden Globe nominations. So, how does one watch the movie at home? Here's where to stream Crazy Rich Asians this winter, so you can enjoy the laughs over and over. In case you missed it, Crazy Rich Asians was nominated for both Best Comedy and Best Actress In a Musical or Comedy for lead Constance Wu, who plays Rachel Chu. Wu's nomination was history-making, as it's been over 44 years since an Asian woman has been nominated in this category. The last was Yvonne Elliman, who was nominated for her role in Jesus Christ, Superstar back in 1974. In all, only four women of Asian descent have ever been nominated in this category over the awards' 76-year history, the others being Miyoshi Umeki for 1961's Flower Drum Song and Machiko Kyo for 1956's The Teahouse of the August Moon . So, where to stream this history-making film that put romantic comedies back on the map? Crazy Rich Asians has been out on Digital HD since the beginning of November, which means it's available both for rent and purchase via all digital retailers. Those include the usual suspects of iTunes and Google Play, as well as Vudu, YouTube Rentals, and Amazon, plus newer places like Fandango Now and Microsoft Movies & TV. Also, the Disney-backed Movies Anywhere has it in their stores, which allows you to stream it to any number of digital devices, not just on the one you happen to be on when downloading. Sadly, Crazy Rich Asians is not on Netflix, and it's not clear if it will ever be, as the film is owned by Warner Brothers. Why does this matter? WarnerMedia announced back in October it was preparing to launch a streaming service, not unlike Disney+, starting in late 2019. To that end, again, not unlike Disney, it too will start to pull content from Netflix in preparation for launch, such as Friends , which is one of Warner Brothers' more valuable assets. It will be leaving Netflix at the end of next year. So, chances are Crazy Rich Asians will be held until the service launches in 2019. But this doesn't mean fans should wait to watch. Even though the film isn't streaming for free, the rental prices are low, and renting (or buying) the film via places like iTunes means one can access all of the bonus features, plus deleted scenes and the commentaries, which in this case are by director Jon M. Chu with Crazy Rich Asians novelist Kevin Kwan. Crazy Rich Asians (2018) Movie Review, Cast and Plot. Crazy Rich Asians is a 2018 American romantic comedy-drama.

Chu's Crazy Rich Asians movie cast Glee alum Harry Shum Jr. as Charlie Wu, and although he's sixth billed in the credits, the actor barely appears in the movie - here's why.

  • Asian American Romantic Comedies and Sociopolitical Influences
    FROM PRINT TO SCREEN: ASIAN AMERICAN ROMANTIC COMEDIES AND SOCIOPOLITICAL INFLUENCES Karena S. Yu TC 660H Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 2019 ______________________________ Madhavi Mallapragada, Ph.D. Department of Radio-Television-Film Supervising Professor ______________________________ Chiu-Mi Lai, Ph.D. Department of Asian Studies Second Reader Abstract Author: Karena S. Yu Title: From Print to Screen: Asian American Romantic Comedies and Sociopolitical Influences Supervisor: Madhavi Mallapragada, Ph.D. In this thesis, I examine how sociopolitical contexts and production cultures have affected how original Asian American narrative texts have been adapted into mainstream romantic comedies. I begin by defining several terms used throughout my thesis: race, ethnicity, Asian American, and humor/comedy. Then, I give a history of Asian American media portrayals, as these earlier images have profoundly affected the ways in which Asian Americans are seen in media today. Finally, I compare the adaptation of humor in two case studies, Flower Drum Song (1961) which was created by Rodgers and Hammerstein, and Crazy Rich Asians (2018) which was directed by Jon M. Chu. From this analysis, I argue that both seek to undercut the perpetual foreigner myth, but the difference in sociocultural incentives and control of production have resulted in more nuanced portrayals of some Asian Americans in the latter case. However, its tendency to push towards the mainstream has limited its ability to challenge stereotyped representations, and it continues to privilege an Americentric perspective. 2 Acknowledgements I owe this thesis to the support and love of many people. To Dr. Mallapragada, thank you for helping me shape my topic through both your class and our meetings.

  • Ronny-Chieng-International-Student
    Ronny Chieng: International Student Study hard. Get good marks. Make your parents proud. Well that was the plan. Meet Ronny Chieng. He’s a Malaysian student who’s come to Australia to study law. He’s smart, driven and competitive, which would make him the perfect law student, if he actually wanted to be a lawyer. Going to a “western country” for a University education is a big deal for people in Asia and an even bigger deal for their parents. When Ronny is admitted into Law School in Australia it’s a dream come true for his parents who, as is customary, send him over and pay for everything. As we follow Ronny from his first day on campus to the final exam of semester, he’ll face binge-drinking Australians, pompous blazer-wearing private school kids and hyper competitive anti-social Asian students who want him to act “more Asian”. And to really shake things up, the latest “international” arrival is the brash American student Craig Cooper who crash lands at International House taking it from a quiet, studious space to a party frat house in less than 24 hours. Adding to the chaos is Professor Dale, the aging law lecturer who has spent the last twenty years quietly going insane and now runs his class like a cage fight. For some reason he has taken a real liking to Ronny. Blunt, barbed and not afraid to cut through BS, it’s not long before Ronny is at odds with most people on campus. A genuine outsider, Ronny is super suspicious of any group that wants him as a member - be it the rowdy Australians, the Mah-jong playing Asians or the blueblood...idiots.
