Good concept, poorly executed.

I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

This film is so real. It treats its characters with so much care and sensitivity.

It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review

a film of flavors.the flavors of love . and sex. seductive, sweet, a little bitter. but comfortable, romantic and the best choice after a long and not easy work day. a Brazilian film. and this defines all. not a soap opera but not real far. because the same ideal universe, with three versions, same game of feelings and desires , same need of the other and the expectation to be the right choice are present. but something did the difference. not real precise. maybe, the actors. and the story who seems be created for everyone.

Story about love and desire. About fault and opportunity. In a cold rainy evening a young man expects,in front of cinema house, a faculty girl mate. Time passing, it is late, the waiting is unavailing. But she is his great love and, in fact, the axle of his life. So, Carlos create three scenarios about relationship. And the tale begins.I do not believe in a easy movie, a funny love story with some Capra's drops. Every day is result of choices. Every fact is reflection of a frame of mind and few gestures. Every hour, every event are the body of a special emotion, of a special intention. So, Carlos choice is the universal choice, the question of each moment.In fact, it is same story of relation between Orpheus and Eurydice. About small error who transform a love story in a grievous search.For me, the real future story is the first. The duty is always the perfect butcher and, the past only good consolation. Julia is the perfect desire and the temptation to create the ideal family is a fullish error.But the success of film is, in a great measure, the result of Murilo Benicio's acting. His character is create with subtle art and script insight.

I saw this film yesterday in a very tiny cinema in Frankfurt, in the back part of a bar. A really cool place that created the necessary environment to watch this movie.This is a film one would always like to see. Three different stories based on almost the same script, with different characters and life situations. One of these stories with a different ending. The one that all of us would like to be the `real' one, if there is such a thing like a real one, the one with the happy ending. Unfortunately the most improbable one.This three parallel stories are not based, as `Run Lola Run', in three different consequences on how the main character decides in front of one situation. This is a nice script experiment, involved in a very funny movie. I enjoyed it, and I hope you will enjoy it too.

"Possible Loves" doesn't pretend to be more than a romantic comedy, "realistic" in its way. I thought it was as good as any produced in Hollywood. Not every Brazilian film has to be depressing. Happiness, and even prosperity, are also possible.Of course this isn't the first funny Brazilian movie, but it's been a long time since "Dona Flor and Her Two Husbands", and "Bye Bye Brazil," and they were both set in a Brazil that was already passing out of existence. "Possible Loves" is not only funny but takes modern life for granted.
