Miss Hanoi

Uma trama digna de mais um conjunto de episódios banais de uma qualquer série policial da TV Nova checa, criadas aos montes todos os anos, que por alguma razão chegou até a uma longa-metragem. Absolutamente sem justificação. E a versão televisiv adeste trabalho, em que tudo na língua vietnamita foi dobrado para um checo formal "muito crível", porque a TV Nova aparentemente considera os seus telespetadores analfabetos completos que nem conseguem ler legendas durante um punhado de diálogos, é então apenas uma verdadeira definição cinematográfica da palavra "vergonha".

Dear surprise, decent crime story led by a handsome Vietnamese woman and a cheeky and charming David Novotný. I liked the story, the resolution was unexpected for me, I already liked Zdeněk Viktory's Parisian literary work, so he did not disappoint me this time when he started a film material that was not easy at all. Positive impressions for me, although there could be found many things that are not perfect or do not work perfectly. (23/12/2018)

With the weakness of the crime storyline, one wonders if it wouldn’t have been better to make it a gender-unusual buddy movie carried by David Novotný (it’s like he didn’t even change outfits from The Case of the Deceased Dead). (17/07/2022)

It could have been a great film if the creators hadn't bet on a clichéd pair of characters from American films. An experienced detective (white and racist) and a newbie (member of a minority) who teaches his superior a moral lesson and possibly even gets him to do some soul-searching. It’s a shame that the film didn't turn out better. The forensic procedures in the film were ridiculous (who needs gloves, right?). What I regard positively was the likable protagonist and David Novotný’s "hairstyle." (07/01/2019)

A pretty decent crime crossover film whose creators discovered that it wouldn’t be a bad idea to combine Czech and Vietnamese culture. Even though a couple of moments could have been dealt with differently, all in all, I really enjoyed the film. For instance, the scenes from the SAPA marketplace were excellent. But it’s a pity that David Novotný got to play a really terrible guy in this one. I can hardly believe that there could be such an unorthodox and wannabe just swine of a person among the police. The racist subtext didn’t really work for me. I can imagine this to be the case with another minority but not really with the Vietnamese. But I do understand that the SAPA marketplace is a different kind of world than the one inhabited by the Vietnamese in our town. (17/12/2018)
