User Reviews

This movie is so bad!

This movie is so bad! The story is sad and ridiculous, but I thought the film would be better, technically speaking… The production is bad, the plot line is bad, the soundtrack is horrible…maybe because it followed, more than it probably should, the book where it is based… The only thing I liked was the performance of Margarida Vila-Nova! She proved she's an excellent actress, even when she has to do bad characters… All the rest was pure trash! Even the Nicolau Breyner's performance was not as good as expected (and he's an actor that I admire so much for his entire career).

Definitely it's even worse than one could ever imagine! I just don't score it 0/10 because I can't!
