A Menina que Matou os Pais

The guy's pov. Good thriller but it doesn't focus on the people but rather is more interested to give us a recap of the relationship of the perpetrators. I think a documentary on the incident would yield a better results.

ATTENTION THIS ANALYSIS IS FROM THE MOVIE: THE GIRL WHO KILLED THE PARENTS!

Brazilian film where he narrates in the version of Garoto Daniel what happened before Suzane's parents were brutally murdered in her bedroom. The film consists of showing all this context before the act, but the film is very poor in many aspects, from directing to editing, first let's talk about acting, I didn't really like the acting, especially coming from Carla Diaz, who plays Suzanne, at various times it becomes forced and cannot build the tension of the moment, in addition to the direction not helping much in this construction of tension, her acting forces at various times, I even wondered if I was watching a movie or a play made by the sisters of church in which I congregate. The soundtrack doesn't have much to say, it's not very essential in the film since it doesn't contribute much to the scenes, much of the soundtrack is made of heavy rock. Perhaps the biggest factor that this film lacks is the direction and editing, as in fact the narration of a real story can be interesting if applied in a succinct and good way, it didn't need so much screen time for contexts than in thirty minutes of film we can understand, in addition to the fact that the film, as it is a case of homicide, it tries to give an air of psychopathy in its edition full of flash and memories of crazy or depressing moments, but it ends up becoming crude because it cannot create tension and it stays those scenes flashing over and over as if the terror of the characters' minds had passed, sanity slipping away, if the scenes were more direct, unedited, untracked, just the movement and blood splashing along with the screams I can guarantee the tension would be bigger as it would be a raw and cold death without any trace of humanity but thanks to the editing of the film this is broken and the credits go up giving the dear viewer a relief from having put up with an hour and thirty minutes with a slur and weak contexts that make me sleepy. In addition to other factors like not feeling connection between the main couple that makes the movie move, The Girl Who Killed Her Parents becomes a real boring case movie and it frustrates me a little because we know it really happened and it could be a lot better tapped, but in the end that's what we got. Closure The girl who killed her parents with grade: 4.

For some reason my previous rate and review has been deleted. I am wondering why!

All those spammers giving a 10 rate don't know nothing about movie.

As I said before, most of the acting was weak. It seems that they were playing a soap opera. The both main character was hard to believe, not natural at all.

The better acting was from the guy who played the brother Christian ! By the way he is the only reason that I am giving 3 stars. Otherwise would be a zero.

The script was also weak and superficial.

Also the make up and hair stylist was weird, some point at the movie the main character was looking like a zombie from The Walking Dead and that wig??? Really ?!!

I could even watch the second movie about the Boy view ... the first 10 minutes was painful.

If you are a movie lover and know about movie don't waste your time! If you are a soap opera lover this movie will be very entertaining for you.

This is a mediocre flick but I like it better than its partner, The Boy who Killed my Parents, a movie made by the same director with the same actors playing the same parts. One movie is from the girl's POV and the other is from her beau's POV. They each accuse the other of being the mastermind behind the crime. I find this one more believable and it seems as if Carla Diaz is actually better in this one. Nonetheless, this is still a production plagued with horrible dubbing and/or subtitles. Alas, even when I turn the titles and dubbing off the actors are nowhere fast. The visuals are hinky as well. This is based on the true story of Suzane von Richtofen and the murder of her parents.

Real life crimes aren't as well explored in Brazilian cinema as they could be. Which is why I think the idea to dramatize a famous crime was a perfectly valid attempt. And some of the details shown are very interesting, The choices made, though, fell flat in an attempt to maybe try a new formula. The choices I refer to are skipping the whole police investigation, not making any attempt to build up suspense and straight up spoiling all the facts to the audience in the first 5 minutes. The two-part movie was made with the only purpose of making a point that the testimonies of two perpetrators are conflicting in a few key points. The result is that the two parts are mostly redundant and feel like you're watching two slightly different cuts of the same movie. The conflicting testimonies aren't a strong enough premise to revolve the whole project around, and could be clearly shown to the audience in maybe 10 minutes in the third act. The events the movies are based on happened almost 20 years ago, but the script just assumes that it's useless to make a compelling narrative because everyone already knows how it ends. A sad waste of potential.
