This was one of the best-reviewed titles at Sundance this year.

Major Yi Yi vibes.

I really have a feeling this is going to be the one to beat at the Oscars, especially if it does well at the box office. It has the feel of a crowdpleaser that also has the critical momentum. The summer release troubles me, though.

Definitely seeing the Yi Yi comparison ... and maybe even a bit of Kore-eda ... all of which is definitely a good thing. Awkwafina looks incredible here and I can't wait to see what she delivers. I'm a bit skeptical about this year's A24/Sundance stuff on the whole, and this is another one that seems maybe a bit too overly familiar but I could totally see it being something very powerful. The trailer itself has a very poignant memoir-like feel to it.

I know the plots aren't remotely similar, but this looks like a Green Book kind of movie.

I hope this is a hit. With all those inclusion talks, we often leave asians out of the conversation. Trailer looks super sweet and reviews are very promising.

This will be a major Oscar player, as Awkwafina is a lock for a nom. Can’t wait for this.

Damn it’s still at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes after 87 reviews (average rating 8.66/10). Really excited for this one! The cast looks fantastic!

I got to see this a couple nights ago.
Awkwafina and Zhao Shuzen both heavily deserve nominations and I’ve moved them into my official predictions as well as the film for Picture and Original Screenplay.
