    I was thoroughly impressed with this movie. 

    I think there’s something really fun about anticipating the sheer wealth and grandness of the want family and slowly uncovering it. 

    The relationship between Rachael Chu and Nick is somewhat believable, I just would have appreciated a few scenes before they went to Singapore to show the strength of their relationship. 

    The wedding scene - absolutely breathtaking. A must watch in cinema.

    yeah yeah yeah i know what youre thinking but hear me out.

    I could give this movie a 3.5 like everyone else and cite the poor acting, nonbelievable plot, and much more. I see how that would be most people's rating here.

    HOWEVER, on the other hand, I could say fuck it and rate one of my favorite childhood movies a 5.0.

    There are just too many good scenes in this one. Too many cool twists and turns. Too much iconic music to build suspense. 10 year old griffin and 21-year-old griffin love this movie.

    the rare 5.0.

    I've sat on this review for a while because I really don't know exactly how I feel about the movie. I came in knowing it is a classic and has gotten many good reviews.

    it was not what I expected at all. low key gave me pulp fiction vibes (which is a good thing) in terms of its randomness in the beginning. the best thing this movie has going for it is its tension. this is an edge-of-the-seat the entire…
