Ameriatch One of the best films i have seen
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Executscan Expected more
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
daveleejoiner this movie is subtitled, but so what, reading isn't that difficult and this movie was so very refreshing from Hollywood movies written by robots, an actual story and get this, characters ! brilliant soundtrack, great story, what's not to like about this film, the soundtrack is great, have i said great too many times regarding this film ? sorry but it just a great film, watch it.
azules_turquesas I never write reviews on IMDb, but this time I felt like it really needed to be done, since all the reviews on this Title are very positive, and actually that is what made me see the movie in the first place. If I had the ability to build a time machine like the one on this film, I would definitely use it just to go back in time and advise myself not to watch this movie. So, this is basically an unnecessary Brazilian version of Back to the Future, but taking away all the good things about that classic, and leaving an embarrassing result. They try to cover different genres in here: Sci-Fi, Comedy and Drama, failing catastrophically in each of them. The Sci-Fi aspect is an exact imitation of Back to the Future (they even copy the fact that a graduation party with a live band performing is the most defining moment in the entire main character's life... come on! are you kidding me?). The Comedy aspect doesn't work at all, and the Drama aspect is 100% cliché after cliché. It amazes me that such a great actor as Wagner Moura has agreed to be part of this. And let me say that his performance doesn't help either. In the movie, he plays many different versions of himself, none of which we get to empathize with, or simply understand his drastic and nonsensical decisions, and it all looks really silly and embarrassing. So, please, consider myself as a future version of yourself coming from the future and suggesting you not to see this movie. It's not a simple waste of 1hr 45m of your time (that wouldn't be so bad, unless you're spending your days trying to find the cure for cancer or something), but it is also that after watching this you get somehow depressed, very sad about the fact that films like this can still be made, pushing cinema backwards.
wilson trivino What if you could go back and change those awkward moments? Those defining moments that caused hurt and pain? In the movie The Man From the Future, Zero (Wagner Moura) is such a man, one who has taken an unexpected path, but it did not live up to his dreams. After fate has him discover a quirk in the universe where he can travel time, he goes back to 1991 to see if he could shift his life's destiny. This movie is really Back to the Future without the Delorean, it has some quirky funny scenes, this movie makes for a fun tale that makes you think, "would I want to change things even if it results in unexpected consequences?" Check it out. I saw this movie as part of the Atlanta Film Festival.
william-jacondino I'd seen the trailer for this movie in theaters and thought it would be like most other films, which has no plot, and calls for sex scenes to give audience, apparently, I was wrong, big time.The film is spectacular, considering that this is not a those films that usually stand out when talking about the violence in Brazil, such as Elite Squad, City of God, between more ...this is the first national film I watch, and I can say that I really liked, and at any time to distract me, worth watching every second of this great national production, a comedy and history novel, very well done, with a bit of fiction too, haha Recommend and much, congratulations by the Director, continue producing more films of this genre and that is not appealing to most movies are national.Watch, you will not regret it!
