The goal is achieved: fun, without limits
16 November 2017
I am a great admirer of Gentili as a comedian. I resisted, for a time, watching this movie because the subject matter did not attract so much attention, but with so much publicity, I went to the movies today.

What I saw had a lot of fun. In spite of being totally overcloud, being quite coarse in some moments, the film realizes with competence what it is proposed to do: grace with everything, without limits. And this kind of film is necessary. Not for the content, but for the freedom to be able to do something other than, for example, the new Trapalhões: totally limited, to please a few people who wish to be the owners of the virtues.

The funniest parts are just what Gentili DOES NOT appear. He does not act well, it seems that he can not get away from himself (although in the final scenes, it seems that he is better). Carlos Vilagrán is PRICELESS! He was not totally caricatured, like a modern "Quico", but the coiled way of his Portuguese is wonderful!

Highlight for: the photograph! What quality! It is because of this well- crafted photograph that many say "ours does not even look like a national film" (as if this were a great compliment). But in any case, this is one of the only national comedy films of the last few decades that does not look like a 2 hour skit of Zorra Total, which is undoubtedly a great compliment. Another highlight: Bruno Munhoz. The young actor, who according to Gentili was found randomly on the Instagram, gave a show! This boy has a great future, especially if he continues in the field of comedy! Time will tell.

Although it is not the Gentili filming it seems, with its endless advertisements, it is fun to damn and with all the scenes that made me laugh  (especially those that the wonderful Moacyr Franco appears), I give 7 stars with great tranquility to this work. And here is a record of congratulations to the producers, for daring so much in a time when things are so ingrained in the field of entertainment, because nothing can and does not hurt any minority.
