TwitView: Crazy Rich Asians (in theaters WED 08.15.18) Loved it, Awkwafina, loved her! From the famed book comes the fun, catty and deliciously gaudy world of filthy rich Asians. Rachel meets Nick but she doesn’t know he’s heir to billions and is the most eligible bachelor in the Asian community. After coaxing her to visit his home and family in Singapore, she gets a crash course in real family, vile amounts of money, and a heaping of deceit. Along the way she has her best friend from college, Peik (Awkwafina) watching her back. The film runs a little long at 2 solid hours, but its good eye candy with its host of characters and pageantry. It’s insightful, infuriating, and satisfying – all while you learn a bit about Asian culture. It’s sweet, a great date movie and a Cinderella ending – what more could you ask at the multiplex? B+
