Mai

First, i never watched vietnamese movies in my entire life. But this made me speechless especially the one who act as MAI.

And the plot twists is so amazing even already knew this twists but it still amaze me. That's incridible.

Great directing, perfect actors (i mean MAI coz she is the main character), Very nice DOP, Camera Lighting, Editing, Color Grading, Audio mixing.., ect.

I'm really wondering why vietnemes movie is so improve within these years.

Well done guys, and i really appreciate everyone whoever.perticipate in this incridible movie. Thank you...Thank you so much.

With Lots of Love from Myanmar.

Everyone who goes to see the movie is sad for the main character, but I am happy for Mai.

Maybe she missed a chance to love, but in return Mai found a place for herself. An independent, successful woman will have the right to CHOOSE, instead of shrinking into someone else's choice.

People will not care how disadvantaged, miserable you were, whether you endured, or whether your fall was painful or not? People only look at where you stand in the end, then either admire or despise. If you are successful, then all your past is a catalyst, but if not, it's all trash! That's Life!

"Thank you for not waiting for me" sounds heartbreaking, but it is very true. Because if Sau had waited for Mai, would Mai have been happy to marry into a family that once despised her? Would Sau have had enough courage to become a strong shoulder for a woman with a strong personality like Mai? So the director very delicately ended the film with a saying that, for me, is the most profound lesson: "It's not easy, try your best!" Love can make us temporarily forget everything to look into each other's eyes, but to hold our heads high and look at life, to give ourselves a place in the game, love is not enough, we need a foundation!

I hope all women will take the time to watch "MAI" at least once, not to be sad or feel sorry, but to see that every pain has its own value, every scar can be healed, and sometimes we need to hit rock bottom, to discover that in addition to tears, we are also given wings to fly.

Congratulations to the Tran Thanh Town team for creating the most satisfying, satisfying and complete work of art ever. Although the ending is not as beautiful as a dream, it is emotional enough to revive the dormant desires, and is a healing medicine for 'old' women - old but if you try, you can still be an antique, not a scrap, like MAI.

I think I never really watch a lot of Vietnamese film in my life, when this movie release on streaming service, I never really interested to watch it, but when all the hype rising about how good this movie is, I just watch, want to try Vietnamese cinema. I think what is strong from this movie is the female lead, she is so incredibly beautiful, you cannot take eyes off her. Then the story is riveting, it keep you on the edge of your seat, wondering what will happen next. I think the story move very smoothly, all the characters are interesting enough to keep your interest. Especially Phuong Anh Dao, I watch a lot of movie but I think I never seen any actress that is so breathtaking like her, I'm gonna start marathon Vietnamese cinema, dig in a bit what's good they have.

The move has been hated by many Vietnamese who never watch it. The hate is from the boycott towards the director.

For me, I care about the movie, not the director's private life. I'm not his fan or anti-fan.

The movie worthed its cents. Good plot twists, great acting, informal dialogues, good scenes. However, the story is simple, opera soap like.

I rarely have chances to watch Vietnamese movies which are this good. I would say for every 10 Vietnamese movies, only 1 movie acquire this (or higher) quality.

Unfortunately, too many people rejected its value without watching the movie once.

Just my two cents.

In the bustling streets of Vietnam, where tradition intertwines with modernity, "Mai" paints a poignant and visually stunning portrait of a single mother's quest for love amidst cultural intricacies. Directed by the visionary filmmaker Tran Thanh, this enchanting tale transcends borders, inviting audiences into a world where love blooms in unexpected places.

Portrayed with grace and depth by the talented lead actress, Mai's character embodies resilience and hope as she embarks on a quest to find love against the backdrop of traditional values and societal expectations.

One of the most striking elements of "Mai" is its immersive portrayal of Vietnam. The meticulous attention to detail not only adds authenticity to the narrative but also serves as a window into the cultural nuances that influence the characters' choices and relationships.

At its core, "Mai" is a celebration of love in all its forms - romantic, familial, and self-discovery. Through heartfelt performances and evocative storytelling, the film explores the universal themes of longing, acceptance, and the transformative power of human connection. As Mai embarks on a journey of self-discovery, audiences are invited to reflect on their own experiences of love and belonging.

Visually stunning and emotionally resonant, "Mai" is a cinematic masterpiece that captivates the heart and soul. With its compelling narrative, exquisite cinematography, and stellar performances, this enchanting tale leaves a lasting impression, reminding us that love knows no boundaries - it is eternal, like the blossoms "Mai" that adorn Vietnam's spring.
