This April, audiences are excited to witnes.s the confrontation between two famous directors, Victor Vu and Ly Hai. The product that Victor Vu trusts to directly collaborate with the director is a crime-solving project with unexpected elements.
With the investment and dedication this time from the "father" of Scanda.l, Blood.y Heart... Detective Kien: Headless Case is considered a "blockbuster" that can bea.t Ly Hai, bringing unpredictable moments but still "eye-catching" due to the huge investment level.
Detective Kien: Headless Case marks the return of director Victor Vu to the detective-horror genre that made his name, since Guardian Angel 4 years ago. This project with a mysterious historical tone brings a thrilling crime-solving story, promising to keep the audience glued to the screen. With extensive experience in building unexpected plots and a "heavy" suspenseful atmosphere, Victor Vu continues to lead viewers through a "tricky" massacr.e with many hidden corners.
It is no exaggeration to say that Detective Kien: The Headless Case is the most outstanding detective work since the beginning of 2025, a blend of many historical - horror - detective - thriller elements, creating a unique cinematic experience. This is also the "youngest chil.d" demonstrating Victor Vu's ambition to elevate the Vietnamese detective genre, not simply "relying on" the ho.t elements to attract viewers to the theater.
Detective Kien was once a beloved character, even surpassing the main cast in the billion-dollar blockbuster The Last Wife. Thanks to the positive response from the audience, Victor Vu and his team decided to expand the original world of Ho Oan Han by "father-in-law" Hong Thai to the big screen.
Initially, many viewers were concerned that the character of Detective Kien would be played by a new actor, not Quoc Huy as in The Last Wife. However, it was the successful, psychologically profound performance of the Saigon Five Freaks star that helped him continue to be Victor Vu's top choice to play the talented detective. Thanks to that, Detective Kien: Headless Case fulfills the role of a "spin-off" film, focusing on the story of a beloved character, played by that actor (Quoc Huy) and no one else.
In addition to the meticulousness in the story and casting process, Victor Vu also invested heavily in the art of Detective Kien: Headless Case. The film recreates an ancient space that is both realistic and mysterious, imbued with Northern culture. According to the crew revealed to the media, there were more than 1,000 costumes designed and used for the main and supporting characters, with the design, accessories and coloring done by hand by the crew.
Not to mention, Detective Kien: The Headless Case also combines ancient and mysterious village scenes filmed in Cao Bang and Tuyen Quang, revealin.g many beautiful landscapes of Vietnam that are not inferior to foreign countries. The scale of investment in Detective Kien: The Headless Case is carefully designed to build a world full of hidden meanings, creating space for many haunting details to begin to be "revealed" to the light.
Detective Kien: Headless Case is definitely the most unique "war god" of the April 30th holiday season, bringing a unique flavor among entertainment, family or historical films. With a combination of detective, horror and historical elements, the film promises to not only satisfy audiences who love suspense but also bring a "delicious" experience thanks to its tightly constructed story and impressive images. Especially for those who have long loved Victor Vu's style, this will be a meaningful milestone, marking 20 years of "storming" filmmaking and changing Vietnamese cinema of the director.
