I feel like this movie was estimated for so long since is the movie with the full-Asian cast and was meant to reveal the mysterious life of Asian billionaires.
This movie is supposed to show us the life of the old money wealthy Asians and their upholding lifestyle and the values they hold. That the family is, no matter what, the most important thing in their lives.
The characters in this movie are very interesting, Rachel, the sweet American Asian is dating Nick for over a year, and she got invited to Nick's best friend's wedding. She has no clue that Nick's family is one of the richest in the whole of Singapore and abroad. She faces problems that she wasn't prepared to face and has to put up with the pressure that comes along with Nick's relatives.
Some of the scenes are extremely spectacular. For example, the wedding scene was dreamy and beautiful and the locations were indescribable.
Throughout the end of the movie, Rachel does something that only very few people would be capable of. Her love for Nick is stronger than his mother's hate for her, so she decided to step away and let his mother win, yet it felt like she actually defeated her, because she was doing what was best for Nick, unlike his own mother, who was practically forcing him to marry someone who he didn't love, just to be everything the way it should be in their circles.
I liked the emotional scenes the most, because of the strength and depth they held, and the fact that this is the reality. People are blindsided by this obsession of trying to have everything in their life in order, nothing can step up and be different. You can not have an unfortunate past, you can not have dreams, you can not put yourself first, you have to be perfect.
At the end, when his mother finally comes around with their relationship, it shows that you should just be yourself and never be ashamed of who you are, no matter how much would someone tell you-you're not enough, you have to hold on and not give into that opinion, otherwise you would lose yourself and if you don't have yourself, you have nothing.
