The film has an interesting initial idea, but the script lacks coherence. The forced insertion of details creates many unacceptable loopholes. For example, the two main characters constantly fall into dangerous situations but are resolved easily. That makes the story less dramatic and less convincing.

The horror scenes in the film lack investment, mainly familiar images such as ghosts passing by or noises in the night. The comedy element is also disappointing. Many lines and comedy situations are old and familiar in other works. The juggling between Ngo Kien Huy and Tien Luat is overused, causing boredom.

From exaggerated expressions to screaming when encountering ghosts is constantly repeated. The dialogue is also not deep enough, making Thanh's character become ostentatious and difficult to sympathize with.

Compared to his previous roles, Ngo Kien Huy has not shown much change in style. He has even fallen into a one-dimensional acting style, focusing only on making people laugh while ignoring psychological depth.

Similarly, Tien Luat also failed to leave an impression with his role as Tien. He tried to portray an emotional and responsible man with a lot of depth. However, Tien Luat's acting style was still simple, reminiscent of his familiar comedy roles. In scenes that required depth, he handled it rather awkwardly, making the character unable to create a connection with the audience.

The supporting actors are average, not leaving enough of an impression to save the film. People's Artist Hong Van appears too little, and the psychological scenes are not explored deeply enough to leave a strong impression on the audience.
