Crazy Rich Asians

 PG-13
Starring: Constance  Wu, Henry Golding, Michelle Yeoh, Gemma Chan, Awkwafina and Ken Jeong
Running Time: 2 Hours

Based on the popular 2013 novel by Kevin Kwan and the first film by a major Hollywood Studio to feature a majority Asian American cast since "The Joy Luck Club" in 1993.
What a fun, happy and pleasant surprise this movie is!
 Rachel (Constance Wu), a wonderful young woman  meets the dreamy young man Nick (Henry Golding) in New York, and they start up a romantic relationship.
When Nick needs to go home to his native Singapore to attend the wedding of a relative, he invites Rachel to go with him.
When they get on the plane and fly first-class, she becomes a little suspicious. She is suddenly very well aware that Nick is not like an ordinary average young man as his family owns one of the wealthiest real estate companies in Singapore.
Rachel is a little shocked and overwhelmed with all of the action and excitement that Nick's upper-class lifestyle has to offer.
Many young eligible Singaporean women have their sights set on Nick and do not approve of her relationship with him.
Thrust into the middle of Nick's ultra fast-paced life, she is confronted by Nick's very possessive mother, Eleanor Young (Michelle Yeoh). Eleanor makes it very apparent that she does not approve or condone of Rachel, she wants her to leave and go back home to America.
 Rachel is heartbroken and discouraged and decides to leave.
I really enjoyed this movie. It has a bit of a fairy tale feeling to it. A great popcorn escape movie.
The scenery and upscale Singapore lifestyle was very fun and exciting.
Parents be advised: This movie is rated PG-13. I would recommend this movie for children over the age of 12. There is some profanity and adult-themed circumstances. Overall it was fun and refreshing.
I am giving "Crazy Rich Asians" three bags of popcorn.

Christopher Robin

PG Starring: Ewan McGregor, Hayley Atwell, Bronte Carmichael and the voices of: Jim Cummings (Winnie the Pooh/Tigger), Brad Garrett (Eeyore), Nick Mohammed (Piglet), Peter Capaldi (Rabbit), Sophie Okonedo (Kanga), Sara Sheen (Roo), and Toby Jones (Owl)  

Running Time: 1 Hour and 44 Minutes

This movie was so tender and so touching. One of the sweetest movies I have seen for a long time.

Ewan McGregor as Christopher Robin is the perfect fit.

Christopher Robin was a totally different character than I was expecting, a little rough around the edges. As an adult, he had been conditioned to the times and hardships to which he was living in.

When Winnie the Pooh unexpectedly makes an appearance in his life, the important things suddenly start to come into focus for Christopher.

Sweet little Winnie is still very much in love with his old-time pal and thinks things should still be the same as they were many years ago, but they are not. Some precious things in life are so valuable that you should never take them for granted!

This movie was incredible they way they took all of the original "Winnie the Pooh" characters and brought them back to life. How Disney meshed them back into Christopher Robin's current life is magical!

The characters were absolutely adorable, so lovable and believable. 

I absolutely loved this sweet little movie! It was very touching and it will transport you back in time to your childhood when things were more simple, fun and exciting. This movie also deals with some serious adult issues as well.

Parents be advised: This movie is rated PG. It deals with realistic life issues and it is not a fantasy movie. I would not recommend it for children under the age of eight years old. 

I am giving "Christopher Robin" four bags of popcorn.
