Review of Heaven & Earth (1993) by Paul H — 03 Jul 2007
Fantastic and underrated Stone film. Great to see Vietnam from the other side of view and some of the most exciting and hilarious parts are when she comes to America (I love love LOVE the Supermarket Opera!).
If there's any flaw it's that the film is in Engrish. I wish Stone had let the actors (or been allowed to) speak in Vietnamese. It's very distracting when for 2/3s of the film the characters speak decent if highyl accented English but then when the scene calls for it revert to "Me no boom-boom.
Away go. Away go." Only large flaw in an otherwise excellent film.
