Narrative
Supporting actor Willis Wu witnesses a crime in Chinatown while working on a TV show. During the investigation, he uncovers a criminal network and experiences the life in the spotlight he dreamed of. Yang), Fatty (Ronny Chieng), and Carl (Chau Long) watch detective Lana Lee (Chloe Bennet) on TV and discuss her possible ethnicity: Carl declares that she “looks Thai,” while Fatty argues that “Dude, she’s obviously Korean. Get to know your Asians.” In reality, Bennet is the son of a white mother and a Chinese father. Early in her acting career, she changed her name from Wang to Bennet (her father’s given name) after meeting with casting agents who said they couldn’t cast her in roles of Asian or Asian-American characters, but her last name also prevented her from being cast in white roles.
“Inner Chinatown” is different
After one episode, I usually know if I’m going to stick with the show. After watching 2 episodes, the jury is still out on a verdict. So what is this show about? The themes (so far) seem to be: what happens when we are personally defeated, how to offer support to others, and discovering the purpose and potential of our lives. This highly stylized show is a mix of fantasy, satirical comics, and swanky Hollywood sets.
Judge for yourself
This combination will appeal to some viewers. For others, it will be sensory overload. Does this show go overboard in impressing and seducing the viewer? First, some positives: excellent set design and lighting. Quirky and effective music sets the tone.
My favorite characters are Jimmy O
Overall, the cast is adequate, but some characterizations fall short, mostly because of the direction. Yang as Willis (the protagonist), his friend Fatty (Ronny Chieng), and Jimmy’s father (Tzi Ma). One of the main drawbacks for me is the uneven script. There are some genuinely funny moments, but some scenes go overboard with physical jokes. One example is Willis trying to get into the building… it takes way too long.
Some minor elements are off-putting: the amount of stuff stuffed into the dark houses of various Chinese characters is ridiculous
So they look like hoarders just because they live in an old, cramped building in a seedy part of town? Come on! Next up: the lead detective’s (played by Lisa Gilroy) heavy makeup is applied way too perfectly, exaggerating the stereotype of typically attractive women in detective shows. There are plenty of reasons to love Hulu’s streaming lineup this month: enjoy new series premieres and your favorite movies to watch at home.
