    Don't waste your time

    Watching this movie is the worst thing you can do to spend your time on. Full of fanaticism, zealotry and partiality. It only reflects how blind faith and dogmatism can be dangerous and manipulative. Other than that, this movie does not show a biography of someone whose life is blameless, it is more like a brainwashing attempt to cover up a very dubious past.

    Not very good

    bad movie and fake success

    I watch this movie and i can say the people are manipulated for high rating, bad movie, actors and theme.

    Fake biography of a religious extremist

    Misdirected film, scenery with weak setting, tiring narrative, forced acting and false story. An attempt to create a martyr in the figure of a religious who manipulates people.

    Boring

    It's a boring movie. It's not a biographical movie, most scenes do not reflect the reality of Edir Macedo. A movie full of religious cliche. Watch in case of insomnia.

    Storyline

    Did you know

    Edit
    • Trivia
      It was widely reported by the press that the Universal Church of the Kingdom of God (owner of the Record TV network, the film's production company) was inflating box-office sales by buying up tickets itself. The Folha de S. Paulo newspaper sent reporters to movie theatres during the film's opening weekend and noticed the screening rooms weren't full, despite the blockbuster ticket sales. The same scheme was allegedly done before with Os Dez Mandamentos: O Filme back in 2016, also a Record film.
