10 times better than the hyped "Crazy Rich Asians"

Rating: 10/10 (22 August 2018)

"The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Society" on Netflix. Such a redeeming answer to poorly scripted movies. It was genuine and full of character love and romance. The dialogue was real and the story embraced true emotions. The accomplished actors like Penelope Wilton and Tom Courtney created real characters. Forget hype and money. This is a great movie.
Two days before, we went to see "Crazy Rich Asians" for our anniversary expecting to see an enjoyable romantic comedy. Instead we saw people who are probably good actors being abused by a movie with a bad script and insipid story (not plot). It relied on the rich glitz of Singapore as a substitute for the war and fighting that superimposes over story in superhero movies. Here the glitz was not glamorous or interesting. Bad movie. Sad.
