After watching this film, my daughter cried and said she no longer is ashamed to be Asian. I cried too. Representation really does matter.

[@SuperSaverPlaysSPG]

Why was she ever ashamed? Sign....

[@FishTail33]

@@SuperSaverPlaysSPG It depends on the environment that her daughter is in, if she is in an environment with every one of her peers being westerns, they're bound to have some distance in thoughts, ideas, identities whatsoever... hence leading to her thinking that being Asian is a bad/different thing and be ashamed to be... anyhow, it's good now that her daughter is starting to accept herself! :D

[@SuperSaverPlaysSPG]

@@FishTail33 Just to provide you with some context of where I'm coming from with this. We live in the States, not Cali either, a city with very few Asians. Still, we can never be ashamed of who we are. Being who you are ain't a choice, but being ashamed is.

[@sndyyy8792]

Sonny Zheng most times, Asian people are made fun of because of their heritage, and/or dumb stereotypes. For instance, the time where I brought fish sauce to school, I got terribly bullied and student would call me “fish girl,” which made me so ashamed of my Asian heritage. However, everyone grows up in a different environment. One where people aren’t as one-sided, which results in having more pride in your culture!

[@SuperSaverPlaysSPG]

jxc I mean.... ok, not nice those kids made fun of you. But, bringing fish sauce to school?? Cmon.... that stuff stinks. I hated when one of my co-worker microwaved her salmon lunch at the office. This has less to do with your heritage, and more to do with stinky fish sauce.

[@Naejane]

Yes this film has it’s problems, but I’d say most of them can be reflected back to Hollywood, not the people making CRA. Asian Americans get ONE film after 20 years and it somehow has to speak to every ethnicity and experience? Hollywood let white people make hundreds of racist and exclusive movies before holding them accountable so how about we just enjoy the film for what it is and hope we get more chances in the future for other Asian ethnicities.

[@lit721]

Lynnae Strait yup, exactly. sometimes you can’t complain and take this movie as it is because come on, an all asian cast? hollywood’s already giving us something. before we get all the diversity and right stories , we need the basis!

[@gg-dg6rk]

As an Asian (Malaysian, so when i heard it was set in Malaysia, and Singapore, my nostalgia was like WOO) and seeing the title, and JUST a the title for the first time I was like YES OMG

[@pavahinynagalingam127]

This movie was really inspirational as it had an all Asian cast, but I think they should’ve had at least some background characters that were not East Asian as there are many people that live in Singapore are South Asian, and many South Asians classify themselves as Asian. This film does break stereotypes, but the stereotype that South Asians are not Asian remains. It’s just a thought.

[@gg-dg6rk]

Pavatopia, I think they did... but then again- the movie was focused on East Asians. It is the Eastern Asians that are associated with the wealth. Of course there are other Asians too, but the movie focuses on east Asia, as I mentioned.

[@fiona8117]

[@shyanhoe]

I read somewhere that it's estimated to come out maybe 2022 onwards? They're probably casting and filming soon for the second part and then the third, so the third of the trilogy will come one year after 2nd one does. Something like that

I’m not Asian but when they touched on the subject of Rachel being Asian American, I related to it as a Puerto Rican who was raised in the midwest and only knows English. I remember feeling so out of place as a kid when my family flew to Puerto Rico and I couldn’t speak to any of the family I had there. People would stare with so much discrimination and hatred because I was “not one of them” or “was spoiled/rich” in their eyes. Just for having being raised in America. I honestly really loved this movie in all of it’s production, but that scene really made me feel represented in a way.

One of the things that surprised me most about the film is Constance Wu, who I only knew as this brilliant comedian from her series 'Fresh Off the Boat'. I had a hard time realizing this young woman in the film was the same person who had played this overbearing, but in a funny way, mother in the TV series. It's then I realized just how good an actress Constance Wu is, being able to so convincingly play two very different women with two very different personality types.

Although all that led me to the love of my life 3 years later who is also a traditional vietnamese girl which things did work out in the end.
