Imagine having a baddie like Astrid, she’s the nicest, STUNNING, smart, beautiful good with her kid- and being so insecure you cheat on her AND then have the balls to actually blames HER SMH😂
I read the book before I watched the movie, and the husband isn't this much of an a-hole in it. He is not cheating on her, he wants her to divorce him so her family won't be mad at him for initiating the split. The family is also soooo much worse and a lot more classicist. The movie made us feel more sympathy for the billionaire who underestimated her husband, and idk if I like that tbh
@@tainaaguiar5039 I liked the Astrid Subplot in the book more too, but I'm willing to tolerate the film version assuming we don't have to see her husband in the sequels because from book 1 to books 2+3 he goes from being sympathetic to a massive a-hole really quickly!
In Southeast Asia , we call everyone Aunty and uncle , they are not related to us :) it’s just a sign of respect to all the elderly regardless if we are related or not. Also, love your reaction!
It’s the same in some Slavic countries :) [like russia/Ukraine/sometimes Poland] it’s more respectful then calling adults or anyone older than you by their first names
"It’s not my job to make you feel like a man. I can’t make you something you’re not.” This is one of my favourite romantic movie ever . The set and the dialogue was top notch.
The watch that Michelle Yeoh is wearing is probably her own. The emerald ring is definitely hers. She offered to let the film use it after seeing the prop that they were going to use, and felt the prop didn't look expensive enough. Michelle Yeoh is a real crazy rich asian.🤑
Your reaction was SO entertaining! I smiled the whole time. And the dynamics in this movie were SO accurate for Asian families, especially the culture gap between Asian and Asian-American family members, no matter how wealthy the family is
in asian culture, it's pretty common to call even older strangers uncle or aunty, I don't know about all of Asia because it's a big ass continent but as a south asian myself all older people are uncle or aunty to us lol
Some of the jewelery we see here on the mother in law( Michelle Yeoh) is actually hers! She didn't find the prop ring look expensive enough so she brought her own real emerald ring.
I think he missed the post credit scene 😅😅😅 It's ASTRID'S first love Charlie WU!!! And they also danced at the wedding reception in a deleted scene which is also present in the books!!!! This is my favorite movie and book trilogy!!! 😍😍😍 THANK YOU FOR REACTING TO THIS!!!
Can I just add that Astrid's husband is a local actor in Singapore named Pierre Png. He is 48!!!!! And when his then fiance fell sick, he donated half of his liver to her. They are still married now after 19 years.
I really disliked how they changed Michael's storyline in the movie... Spoilers for the book! In the books, he never cheated on astid, he pretended like he did to get out of the family (without it reflecting badly on astrid) because he couldn't stand how they belittled him for his finanical situation (and how he felt money was the most important thing for her, essentially what he said in the car) but still wanted Astrid to be able to save face - if everyone thought he cheated on her, it would only reflect badly on him, everyone would feel bad for astrid and he'd get out! Not sure if they're still making the second movie but I always felt like they meant for this to be revealed in movie 2 with the way they handled the cheating storyline (in the books it's revealed in book 1). Idk they turned it into this whole Astrid girlboss storyline when it was supposed to be commentary on classism and michael was a much more layered and nuanced character... (i still love astrid though and she's a great character in the books too!)
"Why did he said it like that? 'This is a private hotel miss'?" To signal to her that she looks poor for the place and probably can't afford it, and she is not welcome. In a private hotel the owner "has the right to refuse to accept a person as a guest".
We will not tolerate Nora/Awkwafina slander in this house! ☝🏽 Glad you made that clear bc ppl be acting crazy nowadays, getting upset with everyone over every harmless thing (meanwhile giving ACTUAL problematic folks a pass smh). Great reaction. Subscribed!
"You'll never be good enough." Nick's mom is just telling the reality of it. FYI: In Asian culture marriage is a union of two families so it is a big deal to choose a wife/husband that grew up with the same values, background, beliefs, etc. Nomatter how in-laws get along, there will be something wrong to be found , specially by a mother-in-law. That's why anyone will never be good enough.
it’s always funny to me when people think aunty and uncle is a literal thing i’m from hawaii and everyone is my aunty and uncle and i know it’s the same in some parts of asia it’s no blood relation at all
Tan hua blooms extremely rarely and always only at night, and for a very short time (wilts before dawn). There's even a Chinese saying that basically means 'as short lived and rare as tan huas blooming'. So it's considered very auspicious to see them blooming, and yes, it's a whole thing in Chinese culture to organise Tan hua viewings (for rich people, not common folks like us.)
40 mill on a wedding...! I will be dead long before I ever seen that kind of cash or that level of money richness. God I am so poor this movie makes me feel sad. I admit it I am poor, and I live with it being a writer or trying to become one.
I never really hated Nick's mother in this movie, cause every Asian mom is like that in their sons, they're just over protective especially with the hiers, I'm not saying what she did to Rachel is good, but I can understand it's not really rare in our culture
lmao I feel you with the big family, I've got 25~ cousins (many of which have their own kids that are closer to my age), and 24 aunts and uncles (used to be more, I've had an aunt and two uncles die in the past few years, and several uncles that died before I was born)
singapore is not super hot, it's pretty normal temp for SEA, but it is hella humid. i don't think i stopped sweating once in the 3 years i lived there lol
Dude you know more than me about these things so if you stand by Awkwafina then that’s good enough for me. Also thanks for the women boosting economy lecture. I think many white men need to hear it
The girl she's talking to in 18:17 is Kris Aquino, she's known as a Philippine actress/host, daughter of the 11th President of the Philippines, and sister of the 15th President of the Philippines. She doesn't have the best personality but I feel sad seeing this small clip of her, knowing what she looks right now.
Michelle Yeoh is such a legend 👏 I w honestly waiting for her to beat up Rachel the whole movie. But i love her in every movie she's ever done and now I'm watching blood origins because she's in it ❤️
Hey rival reacts love your video's❤and i hope that rival reacts is getting 50k subscribers very soon😁👍and rival i have some movies that you can check out ready player one scooby-doo scooby-doo: monsters unleashed grown ups grown ups 2 deadpool deadpool 2 the jumanji movies the night at the museum trilogy and the pirates of the caribbean franchise check it out👀please!!🎬🎥❤😊👍and rival have a great day and an Amazing weekend💪☀️😎🤙
Outside of family in Asia, "uncle" is also a general way to call anybody over 40-50, especially taxi drivers, waiters, grocers, concierges and so on (I mean, you wouldn't call your boss 'uncle', but a fruit vendor, sure). "Hey uncle, how much is this?" etc...
Am i the only one who felt broke or?...
For more nick you should watch "the gentlemen"

@YLIA not in the movie, in the book. In the movie je is clearly the a hole
@@noahorakwue2653 I had no clue! I've only read the first book, so I had a lot of sympathy for his character
@@tainaaguiar5039 ME TOO!!! I won't spoil the next book for you but it really surprised me after reading the first book.
In Southeast Asia , we call everyone Aunty and uncle , they are not related to us :) it’s just a sign of respect to all the elderly regardless if we are related or not. Also, love your reaction!
That is adorable, we only do it to our parents’ friends 🤞🏽
It’s the same in some Slavic countries :) [like russia/Ukraine/sometimes Poland] it’s more respectful then calling adults or anyone older than you by their first names
Same in latam like everyone who is older than us gets called aunt or uncle
It’s the same in South Asia as well!
EXACTLY.
"It’s not my job to make you feel like a man. I can’t make you something you’re not.” This is one of my favourite romantic movie ever . The set and the dialogue was top notch.
Not gonna lie she went off the entire movie
@@RivalReacts I love the actress Gemma Chan. She was awesome in the TV series Humans and plays Sersi in the eternals
“It’s not my job to make you feel like a man...” Astrid is a G. This movie actually deserved the hype it got, it’s a nice, well filmed movie
The watch that Michelle Yeoh is wearing is probably her own. The emerald ring is definitely hers. She offered to let the film use it after seeing the prop that they were going to use, and felt the prop didn't look expensive enough. Michelle Yeoh is a real crazy rich asian.🤑
The fact that these stories aren't even exaggerated is one of the best things abt this movie lmao.

Thanks bestie 🙏
"She's walking on water?! JESUS. You're marrying Jesus." I'm dead 😭🤣

Pretty sure Korean culture is similar. I hear my friend call her mom's female friends "emo" all the time (which is like auntie)
Just like African cultures. Any older adult is referred to as auntie or uncle.
it's the same in Japan and Korea, and I think China too
oh hell yes! i love Crazy Rich Asians as a romantic comdedy but jesus you'd pay 5 bucks for breathing air in Nick's family's home
Some of the jewelery we see here on the mother in law( Michelle Yeoh) is actually hers! She didn't find the prop ring look expensive enough so she brought her own real emerald ring.

Waw ! What a man !
Rival, you are already better than K-Mart. Never forget that. Never.
We need more people like Edy
I love how we all act as gold diggers when we watch this movie 😂🤣 u r hilarious 😆

yeah her show is called "Awkafina is Nora from Queens" because her name is nora and she's from queens

i can't decide what i love more -- the movie, or your reactions 💯
“WHO are you and where did you buy that jawline” 😂
I didn’t think I’d like this movie from the title but to me to it’s a great prospective on the high societies we live under
In the south u s you are called an oreo if your black on outside and white on inside. Wonder how far into u.s or international this is
40 mill on a wedding...! I will be dead long before I ever seen that kind of cash or that level of money richness. God I am so poor this movie makes me feel sad. I admit it I am poor, and I live with it being a writer or trying to become one.
Hi rival love the vids your so funny keep it up❤. also are you going to react to any series on the channel?
Thanks! Appreciate it a lot, but no i won't be doing any series 🙏

my favorite part of the video was when he said NO after the guy said Chu are you?
Dude you know more than me about these things so if you stand by Awkwafina then that’s good enough for me.
Also thanks for the women boosting economy lecture. I think many white men need to hear it
then rachel broke up the engagement and became a hustler
It made me laugh everytime you trusted someone who would later betray Rachel
I felt this movie so much haha love it!!❤️❤️
Oreo is the American equivalent to ur Bounty
and your bounty candy looks like an almond joy candy
Nono we also have oreo's 😂 its a weird anomaly
If I was Henry Golding id def take any chance to take my shirt off n show off
I need to just take a minute to appreciate your hair transformation 😍 xx

Awkfina is problematic & gross af for profiting off of black culture & its disappointing af that you're standing with her.
i disagree but have a nice day
Non-American melanated peeps don’t get it.
@@BriLaDivina98 clearly its embarrassing.. especially because little ms Nora admitted to it in her weak ass non apology
