Ly Hai deceleration
During the three-day weekend, Detective Kien: The Headless Case revenue of over 32 billion VND with over 354,000 tickets sold in over 7,000 screenings. This figure decreased by about 38% compared to Flip side 8: Ly Hai's Sunny Bracelet last week (over 51 billion VND) but it's understandable because the box office cooled down after the holiday season.
This is a special project, marking 20 years of Victor Vu's career. The film focuses on the personal story of detective Kien - a character loved by many audiences thanks to the acting of actor Quoc Huy.
Upon release, Victor Vu's film received good feedback from audiences and critics. Most rated the film as better than others. The Last Wife scores points in terms of visuals and acting, costumes and settings are also heavily invested. The script still has some flaws but they are acceptable and do not greatly affect the entertainment value of the film.

Flip 8: Sunny Bracelet Ly Hai's fell to second place with more than 20 billion VND, raising the total revenue to 202 billion VND. With the current situation, Ly Hai cannot repeat the achievement of more than 483 billion VND of the Flip Side 7: A Wish before
Despite high revenue, Flip Side 8 received many criticisms about the quality. Ly Hai made many efforts to invest heavily in production and filming at many beautiful locations in Phan Thiet ( Binh Thuan ) and Phan Rang - Thap Cham (Ninh Thuan).
However, the film's idea is not new. The script follows a familiar pattern when exploiting generational conflicts and father-son conflicts to highlight family messages. The story of a young person whose passion is forbidden has been widely Vietnamese movies exploit as The Godfather, Mrs. Nu's House, The Little Girl Looking for a Husband ...
The story lacks surprises because important twists were revealed in the trailer, reducing the appeal of the movie.
In addition, some opinions say that Ly Hai is repeating himself. He is also a bit hasty in releasing films continuously, making many people skeptical about the quality of the work. The theme of father-son conflict in Flip Side 8 still familiar, reminiscent of movies Godfather good The little girl is looking for a husband .
New competitor appears
Third on the chart Box Office Vietnam is a Korean action movie Holy Night: Demon Hunters starring Ma Dong Seok and Seohyun (SNSD).
The film tells the story of a group of people who hunt down and destroy demon-worshipping forces. The script mixes horror, action and comedy elements to lead the story.

Superhero blockbuster Thunder Squad (International title: Thunderbolts ) dropped one place to fourth place with 4.3 billion VND. The project was invested with more than 200 million USD, bringing together a famous cast including Florence Pugh, Sebastian Stan, Wyatt Russell, David Harbour...
Upon its release, the film received positive feedback from both audiences and critics. Box office performance is also very good, expected to regain Marvel's form after the heavy failure with Captain America: Brave New World.
Last in the top 5 is an animated film. Crayon Shin-chan: Tenkasu Academy Secret with more than 1.6 billion VND. The work brings cheerful content, vivid images, very suitable for children and families, so it is loved.
Tunnels: Sun in the Dark officially “evaporated” from the top 5, falling to seventh place with just over 400 million VND at the box office. At the current rate, the film will likely be withdrawn from theaters in the next 1-2 weeks.
However, the film still grossed more than 171 billion VND, setting a record as the most successful Vietnamese war film in the history of Vietnamese cinema.
Outside the top 5, newly released films all have low revenue, not exceeding one billion VND. For example, action films Code Name: Accountant 2 grossed just over 179 million VND. The project impressed with its eye-catching action scenes, tense mind games and Ben Affleck's captivating performance. However, the film failed to attract audiences due to its poor promotional strategy.
This week, there are not many attractive projects released in theaters, creating an opportunity for Ly Hai and Victor Vu's films to continue dominating the Vietnamese box office.
With the current situation, it is likely that Detective Kien Victor Vu's will soon surpass Flip Side 8 on total revenue.
