The Unexpected
13 August 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Before watching this, I've read a lot of reviews and it seems to be disappointing. However, this film is terrific in some way. 3 short stories has no connection between them but each gives us a lesson.

The first story about a girl, Mesa, who can see ghost for her entire life and she cannot stand that, so she decided to end her life. I think that the main plot of this one is about the friendship between 2 girls and one problem: depression. You can see the marks on her wrist right before she jumps, that's her self-harm scars, which means, she has been suffering from her stupid ability but no one could understand her, and supposing that Mesa is just making a scene.

The second story is about a med student, Tan, who has been hiding his disease and keep studying higher to become doctor. For me, this one carry such simple message. It's just about how to be a good doctor since everyone is chasing for money.

The third one, which I found pretty interesting, is actually a comedy/parody. Like the other 2 stories, this one wanted to tell us that life will continue even we failed, so don't give up and keep moving forward.

To conclude, this is not a must-watch film, but you should see it, like to entertain yourself.

Su Khoi Sac Cho Nen Dien Anh Viet Nam

This is a movie which has high quality in images and techniques. The actors' perfomance is also a element that creates the creepy vibe for the film. We can say that, "Chuyen Ma Gan Nha" is a turning-point for VietNamese's film industry. However, even the film talks about the legends in Viet Nam, it still has one drawback: too much references from foreign countries.

P/s: It's good but not enough to be called a scary movie.

Naked Truth (2022)

Bây Ngot Ngào

The film itself is an amazing artwork. "Bay Ngot Ngao" is just a pretext to talk about true friendship.

Btw, personally, the name "Naked Truth" contains too much spoilers and it did not express the wish of the director.

Familiar story from The Handmaiden.

It's not as good as I thought ;-; There was lack of techniques and creativity in the film. I know that this was just the remake but when compared the movie The Handmaiden, I just feel very disapointed.

Typical Vietnamese Film that talks about family
26 February 2022
Warning: Spoilers
A very emotional story about family. It also criticize the society's problems, which is just not in Viet Nam but every other countries. However, when the film comes up with problems like gambling, drugs,... it let it pass and give no clue about the solution. I think that this is a very big drawback.
