Tran Thanh's Uncle Ba Phi and the letter A cannot be compared with the letter B.

The movie "Dat rung phuong nam" by director Nguyen Quang Dung has just released a new trailer, the complete 3-minute version, introducing more fully the characters in the movie. In which, the role of Uncle Ba Phi played by Tran Thanh also appeared for the first time in the trailer.

And so, "people" stopped at a photo - more precisely, a 360-fps moment of Tran Thanh's character Uncle Ba Phi - to comment, mostly with criticism.

Like Tran Thanh's image of Uncle Ba Phi has a beard that is too "fake". "Tran Thanh is still the same, exaggerating from body actions with dramatic language to reinforce the need for the role".

That Tran Thanh is too young to play Uncle Ba Phi - a character in a 1997 TV series played by Mac Can.

Or "I remember Uncle Ba Phi was mature, calm, and charming, he didn't scream like the character in this movie"...

Then the character Vo Tong, played by Mai Tai Phen, also received negative reactions like "why doesn't he look like the original in Doan Gioi's story?"

Even director Nguyen Quang Dung was criticized and predicted that the film would be bad because "I saw that many of the recent films he made were not good"!

Just watching a 3-minute trailer, “people” have come up with countless stories. This is similar to the high school graduation exam, the girl who wrote the 30-page essay was criticized in all sorts of ways, even though those who criticized her had not read it to know what she had written in those 30 pages.

It is worth mentioning that in the case of "Southern Forest Land", many people were very unreasonable, extremely lame and naive when comparing a movie by Nguyen Quang Dung with a TV series, or even an original literary work on the same topic.

This is like comparing letter A with letter B, letter C and wondering “why aren’t they the same?” even though they are all written words.

Not to mention that “Southern Forest Land” is a literary work – a novel by writer Doan Gioi. So Uncle Ba Phi was also a literary character before becoming a character in television and cinema.

Directors or actors, from the perspective of the public when approaching the work, they, like us, will have different ways of imagining and visualizing the character depending on their life experience, understanding, cultural background, and concept of art - in this case, filmmaking. And this is a very normal thing in life.

Ultimately, each of us has the right to be a film critic or a literary critic on social media. But let’s be informed, unbiased critics who respect differences!
