This is one of 3 Vietnamese films showing Tet Canh Ty, but I don't understand why the movie will be shown a week early. Not to mention the question of why the movie is shown on the occasion of Tet but also takes the theme of horror! Therefore, WebTech360 has to go to theaters to see what this is like. Let's go review the movie Yin and Yang eyes right now, friends!

Plot: After an accident, Trang suffers from a temporary memory loss so she forgets everything that happened before. When she and her husband returned home to treat and monitor the disease, she suddenly found a ghost wandering along with her. Deciding to investigate the matter, she gradually discovered terrible things related to her catastrophic accident. Let's go to theaters to uncover the secrets behind these stories.

Admittedly this is a horror movie of Vietnam Nam that I see censorship department keeps intact the devil in the film elements í, like allowing acknowledge the presence of the devil always nè. The horror element of the movie is quite good, not enough to scream because of fear, but it just gives you a feeling of fear.

The content of Yin and Yang Eyes has many open knots that are quite surprising, not very good but different from the predictions of moviegoers. This is one of the film's success points when it makes audiences curious, following the main characters to investigate and discover what really happened.

However, in general, Yin and Yang Eyes is still just an average Vietnamese film , nothing too breakthrough or new. The plot of the film still has many absurdities, heavy drama with many lines of old comedy and cheesy details that are a bit ungainly compared to the general spirit of a horror film.

Talking more about the horror factor, almost all the ghost scenes appear are characters sleeping dream. I do not understand how the editing party was doing, but kept repeating the script " ghosts appear, scare people, wake up and realize that it is a dream ", alternating between character after character, making the film invisible to be monotonous, bland, and poor in the way the problem is implemented.

After watching this movie, WebTech360 could not have an answer for why the movie was shown on Tet . Firstly, the film does not have any details related to Tet . Second, a horror movie, scaring ghosts with horrible sound images, who would dare go to see Tet ? And thirdly, the film is about adultery, about death, about going to jail, asking if it is appropriate to screen everyone's start of the year?

The emotional factor that the movie gives to viewers is extremely low. Humor is humorous, afraid is cliché, sad is not and the meaning is quite cliché and does not leave anything in the hearts of viewers. The film has 2 after credits right after the main content ends, mainly creating more scary and humor for the movie, but in my opinion, it is not very effective.

The villain of the movie is somewhat exaggerated in the style of a hybrid Hollywood pervert , but I haven't done it yet, so I feel so awkward. Already, the Yin and Yang eyes still have a lot of grain and redundancy, making those who are really observant will have to shake their heads in the theater. WebTech360 gives 6/10 for the plot.

Image: I do not know what period the filmmaker's intention was to bring viewers about a Dalat at any time? According to the headstone, the film was around 1990 but from the dress, naming and banknotes used in the film, it is not like that period. This is a basic background error that a movie selected for Tet should not have.

However, WebTech360 also has to admit that the film has some very beautiful angles, especially the scene of running a cub car , looks new and loves it. The ghost's image in the movie is quite scary, directed to appear suddenly in a jump scared style that makes the viewer keep seeing the music silently to know that it is about to appear. However, the repetition of each "pitching" way makes the intimidation more and more boring and ineffective. WebTech360 marks this part 6.5 / 10 .

Sound: In a few previous reviews, WebTech360 commented that incorporating symphonic music into movies will make the plot of the film more dramatic and attractive than ever. However, in the case of Yin and Yang Eyes , this is really misleading, similar to " trying to be dangerous ", guys. Also in a few scenes, I noticed that the character's mouth and voice did not match, extremely unprofessional. Well then, the audio part is 5.5 / 10 .

Acting: The only highlight and also the most prominent feature of the movie is Bao Thanh as Lisa. In addition to her charming, salty beauty, her acting and facial expressions are really amazing. Especially Bao Thanh 's radio issuper good, not forced, sounds natural and brings emotions to the audience.

On the contrary, the rest of the characters are not acting at all. Thu Trang plays this role too stiff, bringing the role of the theater stage and the clips of Youtube on the role that require this weight, making Trang's character difficult to understand and sympathize with. Voice of Thu Trang , the rigid, listening to boring, similar to forced forgettable roles of the handsome actor Quoc Truong . WebTech360 scores 6/10 for the acting.

Assessment scale:

Galaxy Cinema: 6.7 / 1 0

Moveek: 67/100

In short , Yin and Yang Eyes is a good film of the horror genre, but in terms of the general ground of Vietnamese films, the film is only average, guys. WebTech360 recommends that you do not go to see this movie on Tet holidaybecause really to start the new year with this film, it is too gloomy. So if you are interested in what WebTech360 analyzed above and still want to see the movie, please take advantage of this week.

And you, how do you rate this movie?
