don't see what the fuss's all about. i mean, 'memoirs of a geisha' has actors speaking accented english too, and everyone was rather cool with it.
on the other end of the spectrum we've got actors in 'mua he chieu thang dung' speaking vietnamese in a weird accent as well (understandably, since they live overseas.)
@kometman becuz some of them cant speak Vietnamese fluly...Just take a look at his name half eng half viet... J what Nguyen.. stupid, no matter what ur name is..u just cant cover the asian looks of ya..
the movie is fucked up because it should be in vietnamese and not spoken in english.after all it is in present day HCM and every1 in the movie is vietnamese .
Dustin Nguyen was a good actor since his days in 21 Jump St. I like movies with the native language, & subtitles. I find it difficult to find "swordsman"type Vietnamese movies.
have not seen this movie yet... but to be honest, no moive can ever express kim van kieu to its fullest. to campare this movie to the book and anything related to the book is a disgrace. viets view the book like a bible, thus no movie can express the bible to its fullest.
well...not to forget alot of french or italian movies r having bad accent as well...as sometimes i could barely understand a word they were tryin 2 say...and that's in Europe...we're asians for god's sake...
well i dont actually mind much about their accents...as long as i can understand what they r saying is fine with me...one thing we should remember that a good film isnt about the accent but it's about the storyline, the acting and the fighting moves(if its a fighting movie)...rest aint much of a matter...so relax...
I want to say after my previous post that it makes me happy and proud to see Vietnamese movies coming up to speed with the rest of the industry. Regardless of what flaws people may see.
I can see what the producers are trying to do, in that they want to appeal to a wider market. The problem here is the same as with many other Asian movies that have been done in English. If you're going to do a movie with Asian people speaking English(In Asia?), I think ALL the actors need to speak FLAWLESS English. Otherwise, you are perpetuating stereotypes. Forget about having stars. Find and make new ones. There are millions of Asians worldwide that speak what is considered proper English.
With respect to your opinion, which I find very open minded and likable.
I believe that English speakers often have varying degrees of respect for people based solely on the accent that a person speaks English with, regardless of their given grammar skills.
For instance, Americans seem to generally find their own southern accent somewhat "low-class" and portray it that way in the media.
The opposite reaction to the previous example is that it's common in the U.S. to find people associating a U.K. or British accent with an educated, classy, or snooty person.
There are many examples of accents in the English language here in the States. But when you turn a television on or watch a movie, it's usually "California English" (general Western - U.S.) that you will hear them speaking.
Many aspiring newscasters from the east coast and south are sent to Arizona to "undo" their accent.
I must say that I have to suspect that being Canadian (which is a good thing to me) has afforded you a more accepting and respectful attitude than you would find in the U.S. about someone having any given accent.
Here, if you're Asian, in the media, and have a bad accent, they might watch you. And they may very well genuinely like you and your work, whatever the craft.
But behind closed doors, even the best of them will mock or laugh inside about a bad Asian/English accent at some point.
it is almost 6 months since my last visited vietnamese clips. I don't know why some cambodian who disguised chinese,canadian12456, egyptian12356,autralia1456 and much more others nick bitching vietnamese. I see you guy bitching each others without no reasons. Be honest, I don't like cambodia, take your real name to said fucking vietnamese. Don't disguise like that..show real angkar, not studid angkar khmer rouge shit. Don't used our chinese name to bitch vietnam in other clips idiot cambo.
LOL at shitnamese movies, so weak. lol they even hired actors from other asian countries. fucken sad. lol wat a weak movie industry.. does shietnam have no talent?
I thought this was an American production, any I wouldnt mind see this, its got Dustin Nguyen I seen one of his films in Australia hes a pretty good actor :)
Hey (DICK HEAD) don't you EVER IN YOUR LIFE TALK SHIT ABOUT VIETNAMESE PEEPZ LIKE THAT! egyptian12346 LOW CLASS!!! Even though i'm part Viet i still got mad LOVE for them... I bet your the one that's really PATHETIC!
sound weird in english, and this film is taking place in saigon?? Well alot of vietnamese do understand/speak english, thats a fact but still this films shoulda been done in vietnamese instead. Dustin and johnny's english is fine they sound like any other asian who picked up english spending several years in the u.s. Only thing, save the english for U.S. films, it would make more sense.
Oh P..freakin LEASE! Acting involves speaking & physical display of emotion. Based on the trailer the acting is okay, but the speaking SUCKS! It's like watching movies depicting ancient stories in China with the actors speaking English. English will never bend well with how Asian people act. Take Chow Yun Fat for instance. He's a great actor in Asia, but he's nobody in Hollywood because he had to speak English. I wouldn't pay a penny to watch this movie 'cause the trailer already freaks me out.
The actors in "The Rebel" had poor vietnamese accents, And now there using English in this movie "SAIGON ECLIPSE"...but the English in this movie is just as bad as the vietnamese in the previous movie...=x lmao
Damn, the English has ruined everything so please stop. Good script, beautiful actors, nice scenes but it all fucked up by English. Please just Vietnamese and everyone will be into it.
I just love it that they start to make movie base on Vietnamese literature, the movie look great, the color, lighting, outfits, everything.
But the only thing that throw me off is they all speak english when the setting is at hochiminh city, kinda ridiculous. They should just have eng. sub, I mean have u seen any good chinese movie that speak full english from start to end? If your movie is good enough, people will read the subtitle.
does anyone know when will this movie be release? or is it going to be in a theatre or something? please let me know I really want to see it...thanks ...btw I'm in USA.
is that Truong Ngoc Anh??? she's hot even though her english wasn't good but it's ok cuz she lives in vn.. but dang she's my favorite person in vn..love that girl
