Observation.

That 'my mind and me' nonsense only apply to degenerate white people with genetic defects.

Brown people act and think on the same mindframe.

TEN COMMENTS ABOUT “CRAZY RICH ASIANS”

CRA is fun but the pacing is a little slow for my tastes.

The story is unrealistic like all Rom-Coms (basically a Cinderella Story).

After all, “Pretty Woman” was about a prostitute who finds love with a rich businessman.

At times the movie seems like promoting tourism to Singapore (and the modern city looks terrific).

I understand some people have complained the casts isn’t Asian enough or isn’t Chinese enough, or some of the Asian actors aren’t married to or dating other Asians.

I understand the root of these feelings, as a Mexican American it bugs me when non-Hispanic actors play Mexican characters.

But I’d much rather Benicia Del Toro (who is Puerto Rican) play a Mexican in “Siccaro” than Jack Black (who is Jewish) played a Mexican in “Nacho Libre”.

But requiring racial purity in casting a movie is a dangerous idea to propose.

It was great seeing Michelle Yeoh - definitely an actress we should see more of.

Hopefully the movie is successful; Hollywood need to make more films with Asians in lead roles - beyond Ninja and Kung fu action movies.
