Constance Wu and Henry Golding in Crazy Rich Asians (2018)

The story follows native New Yorker Rachel Chu (Wu) as she accompanies her longtime boyfriend, Nick Young (Golding), to his best friend's wedding in Singapore. Excited about visiting Asia for the first time but nervous about meeting Nick's family, Rachel is unprepared to learn that Nick has neglected to mention a few key details about his life. It turns out that he is not only the scion of one of the country's wealthiest families but also one of its most sought-after bachelors. Being on Nick's arm puts a target on Rachel's back, with jealous socialites and, worse, Nick's own disapproving mother (Yeoh) taking aim. And it soon becomes clear that while money can't buy love, it can definitely complicate things.

Trivia
Director Jon M. Chu revealed that Michelle Yeoh was dissatisfied with the mock-up ring that her character, Eleanor, was going to wear. She showed him a ring from her personal collection and this eventually became the emerald and diamond ring Eleanor wears in the movie.

Goofs
When Nick invites Rachel to Singapore, he says "Singapore for Spring Break". This would place the timing of the film between March and April of the calendar year. However, the Tan Hua (Queen of the Night Flower), which blooms on the second night after they arrive, only blooms between July and October.

Quotes
Astrid Young Teo: It was never my job to make you feel like a man. I can't make you something you're not.

Crazy credits
There's a mid-credit scene in which Astrid exchanges glances with a man.

Alternate versions
In Australia, the film was passed uncut with an M rating for coarse language. The filmmakers then opted to reduce the language in order to obtain a PG classification. For the home video release the film was returned to its uncut M rating.

I enjoyed it

Sounds like the bad reviews are people who feel their Asian race was not represented in the movie, people who think just because a movie is set in a certain country in this case Singapore means everyone from that country is swimming in wealth, materialistic and shallow. Then Americans must love blowing up planes, buildings, cities based on the Die Hard movies I used to watch. Also Westerners who just can't stomach the fact that hey Asian people too can have it all and yes they don't all live in mud huts and speak bad English. If you just watch the movie and forget about the skin colour of the actors, who cares what country it was filmed in and accept it is all fantasy and Hollywood entertainment. Nobody is asking you to be crazy, materialistic and rich just like Die Hard is not asking you to take on terrorist groups and jump off burning planes. It's a romantic comedy with a poke at Chinese culture and the generation gap. People just read too much into it and you know it made an impact as haters bothered to hate.
