When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This film really hits all the right spots for me. Fay directs it perfectly and stars in it perfectly (with Gale Harold) I think you should watch this film with your girlfriends and a big bucket of popcorn. Grace is mistaken for a Hong Kong heiress and meets her Prince Charming, Andrew Barrington Jr (Gale Harold). Then there is a beautiful romance, but...no, just watch it and find out for yourself. I promise you'll love it! No fan of romance movies should miss this, the best flick ever. The scenery is stunning too and I thought the film had many laughs too. I don't think anyone could say there was a dull moment in this film. Janie (Margaret Cho) was excellent too in her performance, I just wanted to mention that also. Do give this movie a go, you won't regret it I promise.

Absolutely adore the movie! The romance was very cute, and the plot was interesting. Rare and refreshing to see a movie with an Asian lead and Chinese culture incorporated. The movie is incredibly relatable to any Asian culture. I loved the attention to detail when the writer and director portrayed Grace and her family. This is an excellent family film that really captures all the aspects of New York. The main actors did an excellent job in the film. I found myself really invested and indulged in the romance of the film. The audience can really connect and love Grace (the main character). I really enjoyed the subtle comedy in this movie. This movie reminded me of the classic film Maid in Manhattan. I wish people would make more films like Falling for Grace. I strongly recommend watching this film!

If you had read a synopsis for this film before entering the cinema, you probably would think something which was very much off the mark. Standard descriptions are not quite able to do this small film justice. As I spoke to the lead actress/director (Fay Ann Lee (a sure future up-and-comer)) after the showing in Des Moines, I realized that she had such an intricate feel for how she was able to so deftly use a hard-hitting interracial romance as a means to obtain a much larger end (in this film's case being the elimination of minority sweatshops and their usual non-unionization). You more than likely won't read as much into this film as I did, but you assuredly will want to stand up and clap just like the 250 or so of us did on that glorious August Friday night in Iowa's largest city after the film's reel had been allowed to reach its climax.

Visit the official website "fallingforgrace.com" and check out the trailer to see for yourself - you will want to go see this movie.'Falling for Grace' is very much as New York City as Woody Allen's cinematic world. The sound of the metro and the CANAL Street Pictures - the very first image on screen already gives one the New York and Chinatown feeling. If you've been to New York and its Chinatown, there are plenty of NYC locale hints you may recognize - but not a prerequisite. The film's original title is "East Broadway" for the Tribeca Film Festival 2006 entry, hence it's definitely New York, New York. The opening credit roll simply fascinates me: the thoughts behind it having each actor's name with Chinese character translations briskly displaying (equal opportunity whether Asian or not) and the Chinese film title playfully appearing like 'falling' for grace: "Sub Mein Ling Lone" - meaning "in every way refined." Refined being cultivated, polished, elegant, well-conceived. This film with its story, dialog, production details and effort behind it all, is very much 'every way refined.'You might say the script is ambitious - written by director-producer Fay Ann Lee, who's also in the lead role of Grace Tang - so it is, yet it all comes together unobtrusively as you watch and follow the story unfolds, bringing smiles, chuckles, laughter and tears along the way. The dialog, including the Cantonese portions with easy-read subtitles, are well thought out and timely. Yes, coming out from Margaret Cho (the elegant side we get to see), the word "Jesus" can very well be the most endearingly delivered sound you'd ever heard. So a romantic comedy it is, with hints of political viewpoint on 'sweat shop' vs. big business intertwined, and family values, Chinese traditions rolled into one entertaining movie. A tall order and Fay Ann Lee and team delivered: with Gale Harold as Andrew, and wonderful supporting roles by Clem Cheung as Ba and Elizabeth Sung as Ma - the parents, Ken Leung as Ming the brother, even brief ones like Christine Baranski's 'emotional' line to son Andrew, and Ato Essandoh's Jamal quote so casually uttered at Central Park, "It's better to be disliked for what you are, than to be loved for something that you are not" - it's delightful.Had waited a year for the film to debut in San Francisco. It was exciting when I first saw the theatrical trailer on screen at Sundance Kabuki two weeks before July 20 - I love it. The trailer is available for repeated 'play again' on Myspacetv.com ("www.myspace.com/fallingforgracemovie"). The catchy song "wonderful crazy" from Katelyn Tarver sure captures the spirit of this film, and it can be heard on both the official site of "East Broadway" ("www.eastbroadwaythemovie.com") and "Falling for Grace" ("www.fallingforgrace.com"): "it's so wonderful crazy, it's so beautiful out of control, kinda scary amazing …cos my life's so wonderful, crazy, crazy, crazy." The official site includes info on the team's trip to China, visit to Tsinghua University in Beijing and the original "Shanghai Tang" in Hong Kong.It's been worth the wait. "Falling For Grace" is essentially a heartwarming and satisfying romantic comedy, cliché to some or not, it is a bold debut feature effort which can pass for a polished 'Hollywood' movie, and that's not bad at all. But being an independent film without big budget promotions, it definitely needs steady support and word of mouth to keep it circulating for wide distribution and successful following. May this be so. Kudos to the filmmakers of "Falling for Grace."
