My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Chan Is Missing (1982)

This is a wonderful little mystery with a social twist on what it's like to be American-Chinese.  Director Wayne Wang cleverly and artfully tells his story with a small budge and a cast of unknowns.   A cab driver tries to find his missing business partner, going on a quest to find out where he went by contacting everyone he knew.  Grade: B+.
