Mai

Unlike toandph I thought Mai was a very well made movie.

I thought the script was well written and the movie was well directed.

I'm amazed, in general, by how far Viet Nam has gotten in terms of artistry and music videos. We have came very far from the home made music videos to the short movie music videos that can compete compared to Korea and US. Mai is the first movie that follows that development.

Phuong Anh impersonated Mai tremendously in form of acting and maybe more so looks. She plays it like it was her autobiography. Cinematography, editing, and directing was on point for me also. I was taken aback by the one shot scenes, especially.

Altogether, I think Mai is very worth watching and I hope there's more to come from Viet Nam.

This is a beautiful story about the character Mai's journey to find happiness. The character's psychology is portrayed deeply and complexly. The director gave us a deep dive into the character's psychology. This is not a simple romantic movie. This is a movie about life and happiness in every person. Although there are still many errors in the storytelling, this is a significant mark of Vietnamese films. From the film we can see the careful investment in content, images, script and message conveyed. The actors have devoted a lot to their roles. In short, this is a movie worth watching. An incredible cinematic mark from Tran Thanh.

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.

Has been a big fan of international films, selected this title and thinking it's just another boy-meets-girl-turns-good love story.

I was wrong. The storyline, cinematography, casts, has been awesome!

Has been awhile since i come across a great romance movie! No spoiler alert; Tran Thanh managed to capture his audiences throughout, "Mai" is injected with bits of humour, realities of life, the projection of a specific profession that is seen as vice to some, the sacrifices a Mother to her child, and last but not least, sacrifices for love.

Highly recommend "Mai" to any movie fans, i'm quite sure you would not be disappointed!

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.
