The Movie of My Life Movie Reviews
Beautiful
Although the story sometimes seems slow and you start thinking where it is all going… it surprised me in a great way! Direction great! Photography and soundtrack are beautiful!
Euro arthouse immitation, but a formidble job
As someone very familiar with modern Brazilian and European cinema, I’d have to agree with Lovecraft Movies’ comment that this just as well could have been a European film. While they see it as a positive, I see it as a bit of a critique. It felt like Selton Mello really, really (like, really) wanted this to feel like a Euro arthouse flick. He’s punching above his weight at this point in his directorial career. The other reviewer’s comment that the second act wasn’t as centered as it could have been, I also agree with.
At some level, the aesthetics and locations brought me back to one of my favorite Brazilian films from 2001, To The Left of the Father (coincidentally, with Selton Mello as part of the cast).
That being said, Mello did his best job yet in the director’s chair, and I do recommend this film for its stylization and cinematography (just wish the former could have been toned down a tad), with the story coming in at a close third.
Excelente
A delicate, sensitive, careful film with excellent performances. THE Direction is flawless and the film’s photography, a dream! A touching story, a careful plot and the equilateral balance between dialogues and images management make this film a qualitative landmark in the history of Brazilian cinema.
