It’s not trying to do much, but it succeeds at being a throwback rom com that is perfect for a date night. It’s a fun quick ride that is both very familiar but also almost forgotten from the movie landscape.

FYI: Asian woman with the short hair is very funny. Good timing

Given that this is the first Hollywood movie in 25 years with an all-Asian cast and the underrepresentation of Asians in U.S. media, it's totally understandable that it's marketed that way.

It's a good movie, one of the best rom coms I've seen.

Asians are actually overrepresented in media. They just live in a country where they are 3% of the population.

They're 6%. And no, the U.S. media representation is nowhere close to 6% Asian.

I'm not usually a fan of women comedians. I've never seen Awkafina before but she's funny. Just googled her and this is her second big movie and she is rightfully getting praise for her performance.

She is gonna be a big star. Big reason is due to Oceans 8 and this movie. Diverse casting ftw?!

Rich chick gave some fancy watch to her husband so "he'd look like a CEO" or some shit.

The acting and dialogue in the first half of the movie were really bad. Like, the kind of stuff you don't even see on television anymore - like those old Disney Channel original movie bad. The movie is kept afloat because they just play a bunch of top 40 pop songs every 10 seconds and intersperse food, clothing, and real estate porn. It's like you're watching an NSync concert set to someone flipping the channels between HGTV and the Food Network.

Finally, like 2/3s of the way through an actual plot develops and there starts to be scenes where the characters are interacting in conflicts worthy of an actual movie. Not that it becomes great art, but both my friend and I agreed we spent the first half somewhat shocked critics would give it good reviews even with the AA bump, but that the second half seemed to rise to the level of like a Kate Hudson romcom.

The humor in the movie was really unfunny. I mean not everything has to be as cutting as Veep, but all the characters are totally humorless other than Ken Jeong and some chick doing a "blackcent" - both of which are a little too much "humor" for me.
