result, movie title translation is receiving more and more attention, especially from scholars and researchers with quite many studies conducted in this field However, the number of researches on translation of Vietnamese titles into English remains modest, which urged the researcher to a study into this area, more specifically into the English translation of Vietnamese cinematic hits’ titles from 2013 to 2017 The study was divided into two phases corresponding to two research questions with samples of 20 titles and 30 participants Phase used qualitative approach to find out the translation techniques applied to translate ten chosen Vietnamese titles Meanwhile, in phase 2, 30 participants- 15 Vietnamese people and 15 foreigners were asked to complete questionnaires to evaluate the extent to which original titles and their translations achieved three functions of a movie – informative, vocative and aesthetic function The collected answers were converted to figures, and then presented by tables, allowing the researcher to obtain the findings and draw conclusions Results from two phases revealed that Providing a new title and Literal translation were the two most common techniques employed for translating ten Vietnamese titles Moreover, while there were two Vietnamese titles achieving all three functions, none of the translated titles could it In other words, all the English translated titles failed to achieve three assigned functions, as evaluated by target audience Given the small population of the study, the researcher recommends further studies should be conducted with larger samples Investigations into problems discussed in the study such as cultural elements in translation or the failure to fulfill three functions of translated titles should be

part also identifies two research questions, which will direct the whole research 1.1 Background Movie is one of the most significant art forms that can reflect life, culture, or thought of a society and present it to other societies, as the French artist and novelist, Baker (2004, p.40) said: “Movie is so important that it has become the first arts of human world” It serves as a medium for the cultural communication between countries For movie to fulfill its duty as a cultural bridge, one could not deny the utmost importance of movie translation As a result, numerous studies on movies translation have been conducted by researchers around the world, covering many aspects of movie translation such as translating film scripts, translating slang or cultural terms or movie dubbing Many Vietnamese researchers also show interest in this field and “A Study on Film Translation” by Van L.T.H (1999), “A Study on the Translation of Film scripts in English to Vietnamese” by Thanh (2001), “The Study on the Translation of Movie Script” (2001) and “A study of Translation of English-Vietnamese Subtitles in Selected English Films from the Website kst.net.vn” by Ha (2012) are some examples These studies focus on the translation of foreign movies from English into Vietnamese Meanwhile, in Vietnam, throughout the years, movie industry has witnessed waves of changes and transformations, turning it into a fast-growing sector According to Thu (cited in Điện ảnh Việt chiến giành miếng bánh trăm triệu USD, 2016), over the past 4-5 years, the growth rate of Vietnam’s movie market “has reached 35-40%” and “the gross box office revenue rises from approximately 83 million dollars in 2014 to 105 million dollars in 2015” Vietnamese film community has forged a strong brand and unique voice within the global cinema community with a great number of movies gaining remarkable Ghadi, S A (2010) All new theories and concepts about translation in new century Retrieved December 9, 2017,
