CGiii Comment

No need to beat around the bush with this one...no, it's not, not good.

It's bloody terrible.

Luis Vaz delivers a performance that would make a zombie's skin crawl. The other 'actors' manage mere line delivery...it's like watching a talking forest.

Apart from the nauseating typicos...screaming queen, angry lesbian, battered bisexual...et al, ad nauseam...Carvalho has managed to drag Brazilian gay-themed cinema back into the dark ages with this monstrosity. Was this really made in 2014?!? It looks, sounds and feels so dated.

The Way He Looks - same county, same year...what a difference!!!
