Brief thoughts on Crazy Rich Asians.

Figured I'd go ahead and pen something down for this movie. I actually intended to review it a long time ago, but other things kept me from seeing it. Thankfully for me, Crazy Rich Asians is still quite a popular and relevant film even a month after its release, a popular audience favorite and critical darling, most often noted for its extensively Asian and Chinese cast. Adapted from the book by Kevin Kwan, there's very little that the film actually does to innovate outside of its progressive casting. But it's still a film that works. Really well.
