Very uncomfortable

If you want to watch this movie coz finally they added an asian male character in a big movie. Don't waste your money and time. In this movie, asian male characters got shot in balls, vomiting and got killed by the main character when he tried to rape a girl. Seriously, all embarrassing and humiliating storylines were given to asian characters. All other white characters are graceful and elegant. They can even run super fast after a car accident...I am not a sensitive asian person who talk about race stereotypes. But this is too much. I live in Melbourne and do you know how many people came here because the asian actor in the crazy rich asian is in it? A lot. His face appears in every poster coz they want to convince asian heritage people to watch this movie. Then, they use stereotypes to build those characters. It is extremely hard for asian male characters to be visible. If you don't want to be inclusive, you don't have to. The worst is to claim that you appreciate inclusive but actually the only thing you care about is money.
