Crazy Rich Asians Has Been Declared A Stupendous Hit And Dubai Twitter Can’t Get Over The Film
It’s offical, guys! Crazy Rich Asians, the first mainstream Hollywood film in 25 years to feature an all-Asian cast is a ridiculously mega hit.
Backed by favourable reviews and stellar social media presence, the film is dominating both the box office (seriously, it has already raked in $25 million in weekend ticket sales) and public interest in Dubai.
As the title makes it clear, the movie, which is a breezy rom-com, is full of glitz, glamour and seriously talented cast. So much so that the crazy rich people of Dubai can’t seem to get enough of it.
Dubai Twitter has especially been lit up with praise for the film…
A historic moment in filmmaking
Crazy rich Asians is a game breaker.

A watershed moment for Asian actors?
Thank you @kevinkwanbooks @jonmchu for proving people wrong; Asian men can go beyond karate and forgettable side-kick roles. They can be hot, smart, leading men worthy of (breaking?) the hearts of all women and men. I love your movie kthnxbye. @CrazyRichMovie #CrazyRichAsians pic.twitter.com/oHHbPQv10U

@CrazyRichMovie is important. The reasons are threefold:
1. The cultural references and ridiculous Asian traditions… I think I know a thing or two about that. ????
2. Passion vs responsibility; yes, the predicament exists.
3. Asian representation. The cast are PHENOMENAL. pic.twitter.com/MvknSvGzn6— ???????????????????? ✍???? (@jinny058) August 22, 2018
More of such films, please!
CRAZY RICH ASIANS (2018):
Hollywood’s first Asian-focused studio film contains many romantic comedy tropes but elevates them by celebrating Asian culture with an all-Asian cast. Funny, touching and always entertaining. An escapist ride.
Support it because we need more of this! pic.twitter.com/KNKGsDEJHn
