Nghe Sieu De (2022)
Quite good if you watch with your friends
If you see the cast list with two of these name: Thu Trang, Kieu Minh Tuan or Tien Luat, that movie must be 100% brainless comedy. And it was. But you can just ignore all stupid details and enjoy the fun with your friends. This movie has some good points (father-daughter relationship), maybe the director had stolen them from a korean movie or something I don't know.
Vi (2021)
Tasteless
I think this movie has good cinematography and very bad plot. I understand some metaphors, mostly about historical events. But 99.99% nude scenes are meaningless. Maybe the film won an Encounters Berlinale because of them.
Nguoi Bât Tu (2018)
Something is missing
Nguoi bat tu (or The Immortal) is the best action-thriller movie in Vietnam in 2010s. It has good soundtrack, good historical scene, quite great story (and no stupid comedy scene) but the ending may disappoint you. Because Vietnamese film law prevent/ban movies about superstition, especially bua ngai (or dark magic). Victor Vu told us about the fate of immortality, which is really pessimistic but enough for anyone to have a better view about life, time and destiny. But if you just care about action scene, you will be entertained a lot.
Bui doi Cho Lon (2013)
Most realistic action movie from VN
Most Vietnamese action movies contain lots of nonsense comedy scenes to make the films funnier but they are too meaningless. This movie doesn't have that big drawback so that's why my impression about it is totally good.
It has a simple story about preventing the expansion of the drugs gang. All bloody fighting/killing scenes are full of energy, entertaining and as realistic as The Raid (2011). This is a reckless idea of the director because of its genre and tense atmosphere. Although there had had many martial arts VN movie before, a crime movie was not a good idea at that time.
As the expectation, most Vietnamese claim that this movie can make the youth become violent but I think it has a good meaning after all when the film ends. There might be only 1 bad point is the soundtrack, which contains lack of music.
And to sum up, if you want to watch a low-budget gangster movie, it won't make you disappoint.
