Just went to the premiere of #crazyrichasians. It was absolutely incredible. And hilarious. It’s going to make a fortune. — roxane gay (@rgay) April 24, 2018

Getting emotional just listening to these guys talk. As a film journalist, I have never been to an event with a cast like this before. ✨😭 #CrazyRichAsians pic.twitter.com/BOxFYbr369 — Susan Cheng (@scheng_) April 24, 2018

#CrazyRichAsians was even more perfect than I expected. Legitimately one of the most beautiful rom-coms I've ever seen, frame by frame. Kudos and enduring gratitude to @jonmchu — Rebecca Sun (@therebeccasun) April 24, 2018

Saw #CrazyRichAsians. It was hilarious, colorful, and SUCH A GOOD ROM COM. I truly can’t tell you what it meant to see so many Asians on screen as the main characters. ALSO @awkwafina is the G.O.A.T. 🔥🎎🎏⛩🍚🍣🥟🍱 — Ashly Perez 🍃 (@itsashlyperez) April 24, 2018

I was lucky enough to get to see #crazyrichasians tonight and holy crap it is FANTASTIC. Everyone. Is. Great in it. It was sometimes hard to hear the jokes because people were laughing so hard at the last joke. — Kristin Chirico (@lolacoaster) April 24, 2018

Judging by my timeline, #CrazyRichAsians is about to show yet again that so much of Hollywood’s conventional wisdom about what’s viable commercially is all racist and sexist convention, no wisdom. — Franklin Leonard (@franklinleonard) April 24, 2018

Part of the cast talking... Twitter only lets me last a little bit. #CRAZYRICHASIANS pic.twitter.com/EO8JyHRB9G — Laura (@lsirikul) April 24, 2018

Okay so 90% of my bias aside, it was so dope and refreshing to see an all Asian cast in a movie that wasn’t about kung fu 😂

(But foreal) @CrazyRichMovie is REALLY GOOD. @awkwafina fuckin killsss itttt, so funny, and @ConstanceWu is like a real life princess in that shit. 🔥🔥🔥 pic.twitter.com/aoSnarPBWZ — Timothy DeLaGhetto (@TimothyDeLaG) April 24, 2018

#CrazyRichAsians is the complete package. I couldn't get enough of it. I can't wait to see it again in August! Also, pls put @awkwafina in EVERYTHING. Y'all better not sleep on this movie! — Pablo Valdivia (@PabloValdivia) April 24, 2018

On the same day the trailer for "Crazy Rich Asians" hit the internet, there was a special VIP early advance screening of the film with a Q&A with the cast and director Jon M. Chu. Months head of its theatrical release, audience members (mostly Asian Americans, influencer and industry professionals and reporters as well as Roxane Gay, Malaysian singer Yuna, and more) tweeted about how they felt about the film. And the reception is positive!
