I need to start with an introduction that mentions the Vietnamese subtitles. Then talk about the film's plot, perhaps the action sequences, which are a big part of what makes this movie notable. Also, mention the director and his style, since Chad Stahelski is known for his work on John Wick. The main character, James Conway, is a hitman getting out of the business, but gets pulled back in. The themes of redemption, family, and personal struggle could be important points.

Alternatively, if the user is asking for a review in Vietnamese, but the query is in English. The user might need a review written in Vietnamese for the Vietsub version. Wait, the query says "review for: 'Snowfall Vietsub'" and the user wants me to act as a movie critic. The user hasn't specified the language of the review, but given that the movie is subtitled in Vietnamese, maybe the review should be in Vietnamese. But the initial request is in English. Hmm, need to clarify.

But the user hasn't specified the language for the review. Given that, perhaps provide the review in English, discussing the Vietsub version's accessibility and how it serves the Vietnamese audience. Alternatively, maybe the user wants the review in Vietnamese. However, the system prompt is in English, so perhaps the user wants an English review of the Vietsub version. Since the user didn't specify, it's safer to proceed with an English review but mention the Vietsub aspect.

I need to make sure the review isn't too long, but comprehensive. Also, check for any cultural nuances—how Vietnamese audiences might receive the film, given the blend of Korean and American influences. Since it's a South Korean-American co-production, maybe that's relevant.

I need to avoid any personal bias and present a balanced view. Also, check for any factual inaccuracies. For example, confirm the director, main cast, release year. Once that's done, write a concise review that's informative and helpful for potential viewers looking for a review of the Vietsub version.

I should note the strengths of the film: the action choreography, the performances, especially Mark Wahlberg. Maybe comment on how the Vietnamese subtitles affect the experience—do they translate well, are there any issues? Since most of the film is in English, the Vietsub would be for non-English speaking Vietnamese viewers. Also, check if there are any notable aspects in the subtitle translation that impact the movie's reception.

We started with Clé Tile’s modern farmhouse brick in matte white. I love the handmade quality and the color variation. No brick is exactly the same and thats what makes this install extra special. Next, we used TEC Power Grout. This grout is much more stain resistant and holds form better during the application process. We used it in “bright white”.

Next, to get the spacing, our tile guys cut leftover pieces of the terrazzo we used in other parts of the house in 1″ stripes. This can easily be done with wood strips but we used what we had on hand. These strips were then removed as the thinset cured.

That is it! I don’t think I would use this treatment on a steam shower or a bathroom with poor ventilation. Our shower doesn’t have a door so it gets plenty of airflow which may also be why the grout has not discolored at all for us. We also have noticed a few hairline cracks in the grout as the house has settled, but overall I am extremely happy with how it turned out and has held up. I hope this helps to inspire new ways of using traditional tile shapes and here’s hoping it continues to last! proceed at your own risk. ha x

    Never will there be a fancier temporary spacer than terrazzo- ha! It looks absolutely stunning.

  • I had been wondering how that thick grout line would hold up as most sanded grouts say max 1/2”! Thank you for sharing! It’s beautiful!!

  • Haley

    Love it. I want to see your vanity! Also, are your terrazzo floors matte or glossy finish? X

    • Ashlea

      I second this!! I actually came on here hoping we’d get a little morsel on the custom concrete vanity/sink. But perhaps she’s been giving it time just like this tile install before sharing.

  • Lisa

    Thank you for sharing! It turned out fabulous and I appreciate you wanting to make sure it held up well.

    Hi sarah,

    That tile is so beautiful! I want to do something similar in my shower but worried the thick grout will start to show cracks after awhile. Did you seal the grout in yours?

  • Lauren

    What mirror is that? I have been looking for a similar mirror? Is the mirror backlit?

  • Tracy

    Did you have to fill in the 1″ area of grout enough to cover the top and bottom of the tiles?

  • […] matte white on the walls and the Natural Zellige on the floor. Read all about how we executed the wall tile treatment here. I designed the custom concrete vanity with an integrated sink and had it fabricated […]

    I am curious if you could give any insight into how the application of the grout was done. How did you keep the one inch grout line looking smooth while also making sure to remove any grit haze from the tile? I would be afraid that as I wipe the grout off the tile face that I would mess up the finish of the thick grout line. I really want to try this but it makes me nervous!

  • Gina

    Did you use a schluter tile edge strip where the tile transi to REGULAR wall?

    • Sarah Sherman Samuel

      Hi Gina!
      No, Cle offered glazed trim tile so it looks like an edge so no need for a schluter.
