#ASIANAMERICANREPRESENT! I cried throughout the movie and after in the parking lot because I finally saw my face -- as in an Asian face in mainstream media in the forefront, not just in the background. I can't wait for them to announce a second movie because there are THREE BOOKS in this series. I am expecting a second! Amazing chemistry with all of the actors and a wonderful story was brought to life from a different perspective -- one that I am most familiar with.

The book was fabulous and so was the movie!

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable, even if most of us are not married to or dating secret millionaires. And though the film may feel overstuffed, it all works in service of its story.

The filmmakers’ ability to seamlessly explore rapidly shifting Chinese cultural norms within the context of the classic trope of a mother who’s hostile toward her son’s partner is the film’s most impressive feat.

Is it as good as the book? No. Did it make me happy? Oh yes, and how nice to be reminded what a gift a joyful rom-com can be.
