Redwarmin This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Marketic It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

ShangLuda Admirable film.

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Luis Alves A simple story...a story of winners. They suffered, they had a hard childhood. And despite of all these obstacles and because the perseverance of their father, they won. This is not just a cinematography. You'll find action, comedy and drama in this movie. Join it with your heart. A great movie. You don't need to know the story of these Brazilian singers to have moments of tenderness and joy.

km004a5534 This movie narrates the true story of the rags-to-riches climb of Zezé di Camargo and Luciano. Though it was not so much a straightforward climb as a roller-coaster ride and it probably would never have happened had it not been for the single-minded determination of their father. Indeed, it is as much his story and that of their brother Emival as it is theirs.Whilst I do not know what really happened, it would appear that the movie tells the story simply and without over-elaboration. All of this, against the contrasting backdrop of the beautiful scenery, electric atmosphere and depressing slums of Brazil and the intoxicating beauty of the music, make for a very pleasant movie experience. But it is the performances of Dablio Moreira and Marcos Henrique, as Young Mirosmar/Zezé Di Camargo and his brother Emival that elevate the film to a different level. Though I somehow doubt it, I hope that these two talented young performers gained the accolades and financial rewards that their outstanding performances merited. What I do know is that, in the Young Artists Awards (2006), Dablio and Marcos jointly won the award for Best Performance in an International Feature Film - Leading Young Performer, in the face of very stiff competition.Having watched the DVD several times, I purchased a CD of the "movie soundtrack," but I was hugely disappointed! There is absolutely nothing of Dablio Moreira and Marcos Henrique to be heard and I must admit that I was far more moved by their rendition of the music than that of Zezé di Camargo and Luciano. I am nothing short of amazed that there has still been no International release of a DVD. It's a beautiful movie and anyone believing that it would have no appeal outside of its native Brazil must be crazy!

news-87 I've heard a lot about this movie. It's good as cinema, with a beautiful photography, good art direction and fair script and rhythm. There are funny and sad moments. But I can't see this movie as a Oscar-winner, or even as representative of a great Brazilian production. It's great for the fans of the singers; I can imagine them crying all the time... I'm sorry, but it doesn't go farther than a good soap opera, or an Indian Bollywood hit.Any Brazilian movie with good budget is pointed as a Oscar-winner. It happens every year. Come on, let's face it: this movie is good, but not good enough.

Dppkjz This is one of the best Brazilian's movies I've ever seen.It's touching,well done and has great performances!There were lots of actors who were on their first movie and they did an awesome job!It's a very beautiful and emotional story that shows the life of a very poor family and a father that saw success on his two son's.I can say that lots of people would cry on this movie.This production shows how Brazilian's cinema has improved through the years and has gotten better and better!The box office proves what I've said before.It has been the most watched movie in Brazil for weeks and it still brings lots of people on the theater!Breno Silveira deserves more than an award for "2 Filhos de Francisco".
