The Beautiful Country took place in a time that surprised me. If the setting is 1990 then the main character must have been born sometime in the late 60s maybe.

I was actually satisfied with the ending when Binh finds his father and works with him. However, I believe that a sequel could have made for this considering we don’t know what Binh would do if his father passes away.

I always wonder how Vietnam Veterans would react when they saw someone of Vietnamese descent. In the one scene where Binh meets a few veterans who have missing arms, they ended up giving him a ride. This is probably one out of many reactions that veterans would have done if they met someone who is Vietnamese.
