Highlighting this "fortune cookie" line is unfair, given that the article is about how China doesn't want to acknowledge the immigrant diaspora and their unique ex-pat view. This movie is about rich Singaporean Chinese, not Mainlanders, and is not watered-down General Tso's.

A lot of asian countries dont care much about the immigrant experience. Like Korean-American stories are not popular in Korea. It’s a similar thing.

Chinese people don't struggle with identity issue the way Asian Americans do,They don't care about whites appearing in Asian stories.

Typecasting Asians for years in American movies is offensive. I’m all for an all asian cast big box office hit. But I’m also asian and I love General Tso’s chicken so what do I know?

Yeah, well I’m not crazy about the violent suppression of Uighers in western China. We all have our pet peeves.

A major theme of the movie is the dynamic of mainland chinese and american chinese, and the identity crisis of the latter. It clearly went over their heads if these critics dont see themselves playing the role of the antagonists from the film.

The title says it all. It’s Wealth porn for the average, working class citizen that’s set in a world of shallow aristocracy. Borrrrriiiinngg.

Strangely enough, there's more than one sub-set of Asian cultural values. In any case, great movie, just not representative of mainland Chinese, yet. Give it 15 years.

Exploitative corporate romcom from the bowels of Hollywood isn’t authentically Chinese?
