Review Actress Wanted - haunting but not obsessive enough

After "Dream Man" came out in theaters early this month, continue to be Actress Wanted - The Role of Changing Life is creating new winds in the erosion of Vietnamese films in recent years. When the comedic, emotional and easy-to-watch comedies are in the majority, the two overseas Vietnamese directors are making changes. Although these changes have not created a breakthrough, this will be a good precedent for the creation of quality and in-depth market cinematographic works in the near future. The review of Actress Wanted will analyze and evaluate the breakthroughs in building the storyline and characters in this interesting movie.

Actress Wanted (Actress Wanted) is the second film directed Previously, Touch (2011) was critically acclaimed and received many prestigious awards. Continuing with the film series about the topic of overseas Vietnamese, director Nguyen Duc Minh brought to the film Role of Life Change naked truths about the hard life, material and emotional deprivation of the human community. Viet side of country.

The movie `` Actress Wanted '' tells the strange story of the actress named Mai (played by Thien Nguyen) living in California. Mai is an actress but has never had a successful casting. With the desire to succeed in her acting career in a foreign country, Mai still works every day while looking for casting roles that suit her. In an audition for an ad, Mai met Mr- who was looking for a special actor.

The special role Mr. Vu wants to give Mai is to play the role of his wife who died 30 years ago of cancer. With an extremely high salary, Mai accepted the job of playing Mrs. Hong and re-performed the old things that the two of them had gone through.

From here, unexpected, strange and mysterious situations make Mai increasingly confused and ask many questions.

The director spends almost half of the film's time on introducing the characters, telling the story and the context for the latter. Through the moments when Mai transforms into Mrs. Hong, viewers will gradually examine the past of the couple from the time they crossed the border, lost each other, then met and separated. A troubling love story with many emotions.

The beauty of Role-Playing films is how to build a character with depth. Through the simple storytelling style, which is alternating between the past and the present, each layer of Mr. Vu's cover is peeled off and near the end, it becomes a shock for viewers. The highlight in the Role-Playing Role is the twist at the end of the film, however, this part is made not to, not only to create surprises, but also lack the logic in the psychological transformation of the characters.

Overall, Actress Wanted has a pretty good prologue to building the buttons and questions it needs. The more towards the end of the film, the coercion in the plot makes the film not create satisfaction for viewers.

The Role of Doi Doi is a low-budget film so the investment in the context and actors is quite limited. Most of the film takes place in a small house and a few simple scenes. The flashbacks of Mr. Vu's character are mostly through narrative rather than live recording.

The main man, Mr. Vu, played by the actor has a calm style and describes a man with many confidences and mysteries. Long Nguyen has a melancholy look and natural acting that convey emotions to viewers.

In contrast, the female lead due to her performance is somewhat exhausted. The character Mai has a lot of time to appear and requires continuous psychological changes that need an experienced actor to undertake. However, Thien Nguyen handled the psychological scenes with a bit hard, with the voice and dialogue that were not natural that made the viewers not impressed with this role.

Reviewing the film Actress Wanted (Actress Wanted) is a movie with a good quality temporarily. Good movies in exploiting character psychology and conveying meaning layers. The context and general plot is not really outstanding.
