Midnight Reviews
Intense
If you really enjoy Hollywood movies with predictible, happy endings, this movie isn't for you. The movie is about people's resiliance to find a brief moment of content with each other in otherwise completely desperate situation. I find the acting compelling and vividly illustrated the situations of the characters.
A brilliant masterpiece worth adding to your DVD collection
For those who have seen "Central Station", which won many awards throughout the world (including the USA), was nominated for the Oscar 2000 (best actress and best foreign film), and was directed by the same Walter Salles Jr - this other film, "Midnight", has little in common with "Central Station" - other than being very well made in terms of script, acting and photography. What is amazing is that "Midnight" is even better than "Central Station"!!! Many times better, in my view. It shows a different side of life in Brazil, a more lively, more violent one - and it grips the viewer like a magnet. And it's a slap on the face, that's for sure!!! To know more about "Midnight", please read the excellent review by Rebecca Calvetti, below. But remember: this is a masterpiece - and it's a very impactful one at that, even more so than "Central Station". It's definitely worth having on DVD.
