TeenzTen An action-packed slog

Voxitype Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

Alistair Olson After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.

Danilo Ribeiro This goes to Marcos Lobato. This is an answer for "insights" There is no "discuss about" in English. You must say "discuss something" or "talk about something". And this movie is only nice photography, nothing else. They pick up an exclusive amateur duet of childish pop music siblings and tried to make them stars.There are nothing but didactic for kids. Brazilian movie industry still needs a lot of improvement concerning casting !!! Anyway, the lead characters cannot be rated good actors. That's all I think.That's my opinion folks. Thats it.There's no way it's over. Good Luck!!

Pedro Gouveia I promised my friends before seeing this movie that Sandy and Junior, wouldn't sing... We'll, after a short while, I was begging for forgiveness! If it had just two more songs, it'd be considered a musical. An Indian musical actually! Did the movie really need those songs? I gave a 6 out of 10 as it wasn't that bad at all. It was actually pretty watchable, even though the story is more than clichéd. You can see all the influences from Dune, Star Wars, Waterworld (now, this is a really bad one!), so you must take it from granted that it's not such an original movie. But it served it's purpose: entertain.So, don't forget before going to the cinema or getting the DVD, that this is a kid's movie, and should be seen as that...

roteiroj30 Let me go straight to the point. There is not a single hat in my closet -- they make me look goofy! So, when I told my pain-in-the-ass sister that I would eat my hat if by any chance I could enjoy watching Acquaria, I did it because I always wanted to say that! So here I am, for the sake of not having to eat a hat, admitting for whoever might read this, that I did watch Acquaria last night on DVD and I had fun. As weird as this might sound, Acquaria is a damn good movie... Well... If you feel like trying, go wild... or not... To be quite honest, I don't care! I am starving and I'm out of here. Lunch time: salad, rice, beans, steak and NO hat on my head or my plate.

gabrielrr Let's see… from the DVD I've just watched I regard this movie as the ultimate Brazilian production escape. It's exotic, dry and the 'desertscapes' are simply stunning. I guess it's popular to hate Acquaria. But for what reason? Okay, so it never made as much money as Universal wanted, but it's all up there on thescreen and it DID make a profit, didn't it? It's not the flop everyone thinks it is. I found Sandy and Junior to be actually quite effective as the (desert living) people and all the other casting incredible choose to feel it. The action is very exciting and the effects never fails to entertain. But bizarrely enough, the best scenes of the film are the quieter scenes. Actually I'd seriously recommend hunting down the soundtrack CD to this one – well, for those wholike Sandy and Junior, off course. It's a shame the explanations and reasons wasn't very clear on the script,deeper descriptions on the way/why of living and characters for example would have made this movie much more commercial for its public.There is no point going through this film and trying to make all the science/ desert feature reality fit. I found this a very enjoyable experience. Great national stuff. I can't wait for the producers to make a sequel.
