shallowness

I saw Crazy Rich Asians last night. It was better than I expected (I feel like there's been a lot of hype) and all I was hoping for going in was bubbly fun except when Michelle Yeoh's super tiger mom was on screen! I feel it was the Asian (I want to say Chinese) Black Panther of rom-comes/family comedies. It was such a delight to see a spread of talented Asian actors where there would usually be one playing a supporting role in a film of this ilk. Well done, director of Step Up 2: The Streets, a film that has a firm place in my heart, as I wrote fic about it. I may have transferred Mia-from-Humans-related feels to Gemma Chan's character. I also got old black and white screwball comedies about rich people & Ugly Betty vibes from it.
