Kieu

I thought the producer made a huge mistake when she decided to tear apart from the original story of Kieu and decided to add a twisted version of her own. The original story of Kieu was a story about women's oppressive role in its time. Kieu is a talented and beautiful girl in the literature that fell into ill fate and was sold into prostitution, betrayed by her lovers, and was not able to fight her destiny. The ghost in the literature had a one-time encounter with Kieu; she too was ill-fated and wanted to warn Kieu of the events to come. HOWEVER, this movie is about a the bitterness of women jealousy, which made all the characters look weak and so minimized the powerful message from the original text, for those who were a fan of Kieu the original text would find this movie extremely disappointing as none of the characters were properly develop. Overall, was a really bad movie.
