An honest, sensitive story from a Vietnamese point of view.

Full Review | Original Score: A | Jul 26, 2002

Earnest, unsubtle and Hollywood-predictable, Green Dragon is still a deeply moving effort to put a human face on the travail of thousands of Vietnamese.

A lyrical, bittersweet film about what could be termed a by-product of battle.

[A] strong and touching film.

Full Review | Jul 15, 2002

A gushy episode of "M*A*S*H" only this time from an Asian perspective.

| Original Score: 2/4 | May 15, 2002

A gracious, eloquent film that by its end offers a ray of hope to the refugees able to look ahead and resist living in a past forever lost.
