A romantic comedy by Vietnamese-American filmmaker Victor Vu is scheduled to be released in Vietnam on Valentine’s day, in the country’s top theatre chain the Megastar cinemas.
Passport to Love is a coming-of-age story of two young foreign exchange students from Vietnam – close friends with opposite personalities – whose lives were changed when they met two Vietnamese-American women. Khang (Bình Minh – on the right in picture) is 
a charming and handsome playboy from a tremendously rich family; Hieu (Huy Khánh) is his earnest sidekick, a hardworking Bill Gates wannabe. “The Boys” are sent to study abroad in the US and to bring home a coveted American university degree.
Once in America, Khang’s life spirals into chaos. He even gets himself arrested, and then he falls in love with the arresting officer Tiffany (Kathy Uyen – on the left in picture), a young single mother. Meanwhile, Hieu finds himself trapped between his almost too perfect fiancé, Thao (Tăng Bảo Uyên), back home, and the tempting, Viet Kieu pageant girl Jennifer (Ngọc Diệp). When Hieu’s mother falls ill, he must return to Vietnam. A distraught Jennifer follows in secrecy. Meanwhile, Khang and Tiffany are just turning over a new leaf when Khang is confronted by his very disappointed father.
The movie was written by the same duo who made Spirits (Vietnamese: Oan Hồn) – director Victor Vu and writer Nguyen Hoang Nam, a former journalist for Nguoi Viet and Viet Mercury and the brother of the late poet Nguyễn Tất Nhiên. The male lead actor Bình Minh is a supermodel and actor.
The female lead Kathy Uyen has appeared in numerous indies including Victor Vu’s Spirits and Justin Lin‘s Finishing the Game, a hilarious comedy about a film company’s search for someone to replace Bruce Lee.
Passport to Love is slated to play at the upscale Megastar cinemas throughout the country, including the two in Saigon proper and one in Bien Hoa not too far from the city.
This is Victor Vu’s third feature film. His first feature, First Morning (Vietnamese: Buổi Sáng Đầu Năm), explored the complex consequences 
of the boat-people experience that still affect one family, decades after their arrival in the U.S. His second feature was Spirits, a ghost story in the Asian folk-tale genre.
Vu also made a pilot for “Mysterious World” (Vietnamese: Thế Giới Huyền Bí), a Twilight Zone-style TV series, that never took off. That’s Victor, seated, on the set of Mysterious World in the photo to the left.

Kathy Uyen is hot looking! Mr. Bolsavik, which back of the head is Victor Vu? Will these movies make it here? Since they are made in VN, would they be considered commie oriented? It’s good that we don’t lose the VN profile, pajamas. Hahaha.
this is shameful! ky ngo and his friends should fly to vietnam and put a stop to this!
Everybody, follow me to saigon and we will spray-paint those theaters that will be showing this movie.
Ly Tong!
Don’t forget to bring your Victoria’s Secret undies with you when you go to VN,ok! You so kinky!
tuanphucnguyen!
Ly Tong doesn’t need to bring them with him. He can get dirty woman undies wherever he goes and whenever he wants. He’s the hero, he’s da man. Women loves him, and they love to leave their dirty undies to him as souvenirs.
Ly Tong! Will u b my Valentine?!
Hey Dina, desperate time call for desperate measure ???
Janet is sending me 10+ valentine messages from her blackberry.
She must be lonely again………
Where is that Doctor? Can we order 8 kids for Janet …..to go?
Jung Kim, sounds like you’re lonely and horny…You can be my Valentine tonite!
Oh oh, I think Jung Kim is in trouble ….
Valentine’s day is the day when everyone should be in love. The problem is that being “in love” is something that doesn’t come along often enough and doesn’t last long enough.
Love and caring are very powerful energies of themselves. It is a wonderful feeling to see the outpouring of our hearts be received and appreciated. However, it is not always as easy as simply to reach out with good intention whenever we happen to find the need for doing so. Since the impact of our reaching out in love often can’t be obviously proving immediate result, and if we happen to encounter many negative reactions, it very likely will take a little more than courage to approach a stranger.
And let’s be frank.
For the majority of young men growing up, in the process of reaching maturity there is inevitably the progression of love and sex addiction co-existed, and the complication is that sometimes we tend to be confused between love and lust.
During my teen-years in Vietnam, I found very little to interest me in other boys’ game. At thirteen, I began to feel the changes in my body and my sudden interest in the girls. At school, we often found it quite fascinating as how a little soldier can be ready for duty, even at instantly by the seconds. My usual activities were mostly listening to the romantic music while dreaming of this/that girl in school, or the girl next door. My early dating was not very significant except that I always had a crush on someone. I remember there was the fantasy of having a girlfriend, and the transforming magic of losing myself in the fantasy of loving. I often found myself woken up in the middle of many wet dreams, along with the vaguely bare-skin feminine images still flipping in mind. All at once the fantasy was enough to temporarily obliterate loneliness. It worked, at least for a short while. Unfortunately, glorious days are only meant to last for as long it had. Through many events over next few years in Viet Nam, I accidentally landed my feet in this land of greater opportunities.
Life has never been a dull moment in USA. On any given day after work, I explored fully the freedom of XXX-pression and love the American style. This would purge all that pent-up curiosity and act as a release of male sexual tension. One issue that seemed to come up over and over again was that there was just the awful, looming specter of having no girl of my own, that humiliating situation of not having one girl I could call if I needed a girl for some social function where my friends would see me not being able to get a girl. Being woman-poor was no different than being money-poor.
And, wow, thanks. I’m glad.
My wife and I were introduced by mutual friends at a wedding. One night she cooked a romantic dinner and I fell in love with her at first sight. By leaving her bathroom door open a crack, she accidentally surprised me with a glimpse of her naked and erect body reflection from a mirror. The rest was history. We were married 8 months later. Love was, indeed, the greatest thing we found between ourselves. We have enjoyed a wonderful family life in the following years. For rich or poor, in health or sickness, we continue sharing a DICK (Double Income Couple Kids).
When the kids are finally asleep as a day ends in their likelihood of joy and comfort dreams with their laughter spilling over the pillows, peacefully quiet moment begins many thoughts in the adults’ minds. The motion and the closeness of our two bodies soothed both of us. I love aphrodisiac perfume and feminine touches of a gorgeous woman. Exhausted at times, but I am whole, knowing that I have found the love of my life…
And so can you. To all, wish you a happy Valentine’s day…

Janet Nguyen, I am not lonely and never have been.
Remember it was always you …..at UCI who had trouble locking up someone to spend cold weekends with?
M&M, yes I am in little trouble here….. I really don’t know how to reply Janet’s deseperate calls coming from her blackberry.
I might have to send her a some hairy chimp to keep her warm during this cold rainy season.
Jung Kim, please forward all those messages to me (714) 657-2425. How dare her messing with my man, let me teach her a lesson she can’t never forget !
Hey be easy on Janet ….she is just looking for a real man!
I’ve been looking for a real man too, so far coudn’t find any. So I’d be damn if she could find one before I do.
Give Janet a little break here. She deserves some comfort & hug and even some honey from a real man…. after all she has been stressed out from her job lately.
Jung Kim, why are you addressing to Janet instead of me? I don’t see Janet in this thread. I’m jealous!
It is Janet who is jealous… I know her well.
