After much expectation, the historical martial arts film "Pho Son Hai" starring Thanh Nghi has officially aired. Initially, the film received many compliments, the film's achievements were quite good. However, later, the work quickly received a series of negative reviews, even being labeled as "spray bombs" of 2025.
On film forums, many viewers left harsh comments about the director, production, and actors with poor dialogue.
Many audiences also compared the film to "The Un supulted Party" - a project that had disappointed before, and thought that "Pho Son Hai" was repeating the scene of a car falling.
Popular opinions revolved around the disjointed script, slow film pace, and lacking tact and basic skills. Many cuts are considered reckless, with exposed green screen, and excess filter, causing the image to lose its natural beauty. The audience finds it difficult to accept a film that is promoted as a "big male boss" but the male lead appears with pink glitter and colored nails, creating a sense of loss.
In the midst of the storm, Thanh Nghi became the most criticized character. The actor was judged to have "too bad lyrics", not reading well, sometimes just using a lip-syncer. Some lines are said to be disjointed and lacking emotion, creating a sense of "sticking". Many opinions said that after the success of "Lien Hoa Lau", Thanh Nghi not only did not improve but also regressed in acting.
The disappointment of viewers is clearly reflected on the international scale. On IMDb, "Pho Son Hai" has now dropped from 4.0 to 3.4 points, with most of the reviews falling 1 and 2 stars.
The fact that a project has been widely invested in and promoted but has received results that are not expected raises a big question mark about the quality of production.
However, some neutral audiences believe that the project has only gone one way, and cannot evaluate the overall film as bad.
