Die Geborgte Ehefrau

Thati Lopes S2, it's a shame that these comedies, not so romantic, are so silly and almost boring, I'm boring and have no patience, the references are excellent, I love them, but it's not enough to hold the film from halfway through I I was dying to finish, lack of perspective on something surprising, after all, most are predictable and the jokes don't differ much from slapstick comedies, which I don't really like... Regular to very boring, despite Thati and the cute Twist plot. ..

Luiz (Caio Castro) is not a man who believes in love, which is why he strictly follows a rule that he should not go beyond "dating" for three months. However, he still lives with his mother, who begs him to get married and leave her house. One day, she faints and it is discovered that she only has six months to live. As a last request, she asks her son to get married so that she can feel fulfilled. Not wanting a real commitment, he gives in to his mother's requests and hires a surrogate wife. Lina (Thati Lopes) is an actress who lives off the work of being "rented" by other people, playing the desired role, a wife, a lover or a friend. The two then agree to a fake relationship for six months. But everything can change and the fake couple can actually give in to their feelings.

Certainly not the most creative romantic comedy, but it's quite heart warming and a good entertainment.

It's particularly interesting if you happen to know the actors from other works.

Do not expect to see something that's is not cliché, but love is all about it anyway.

A good point also is to see some movies out of the main circuit of production, coming from a different country gaining some recognition, too.

It balances the love story with the comedy in a nice way, too. There are some really good jokes that come out of nowhere that gets you unexpectedly.

I do recommend if you are in a Netflix date, or just relaxing on a Sunday night.

It's "someone borrowed" on netflix, and "esposa de aluguel" (rented wife, in portuguese). It's dubbed in english on netflix, since it's coming from brazil. Luiz has his own set of rules to keep things from getting too serious with the ladies. But when mom finds out she has a serious illness, everything changes. Now luiz needs to find a wife pronto, or he's going to be cut out of the will! So he hires a girl he had dated way back to play his girlfriend. We know it's all going to blow up at some point. Because it always does! It works for a while, but luiz has so many exes, he can't seem to go anywhere without bumping into them. And why is he going out on dates, if he's supposed to be engaged? So predictable. And some of the voices doing the english dubbing are just waaaay over-acting.... was quite distracting. So i finally turned off the sound and used the english subtitles. Directed by chris d'amato. Has done a mix of television and film. I hope they have a bigger budget for the english dubbing on future projects. I usually enjoy seeing films from other countries, but this one doesn't have much new that we hadn't seen before. Part of the plot is similar to a 2004 episode of will and grace. It's okay.

Recent release in Netflix and just watched. A Brazilian romcom with relatively simple story but with interesting plot.

In short a 30+ aged bachelor who uses a time schedule with female relationships and ending them in due time eg 3 months before love starts etc recruits a rather unsuccessful standup comedian but nearly pro level actress to play the role of fiance before his mother dies

What will happen after?

Quite simple story but .. first with lots of humor without being too comedic ND predictable END. This movie has a few specialties as with Lina his mother and his aggressive sister if not also mentioning his current girlfriend who destroys everything.

The story also shows some interesting character development for Luis with his interest in cooking, promoting him via her job as standby comedian.

I really enjoyed this movie giving it a 7/10 for the total result. The moral is apparent as subtext -the meaning below the story.

The romantic comedy (Brazil) has a very predictable story line - the rich bachelor that never gets romantically involved with woman for more than 3 months, and his dying mother wants him to get married before she dies in 6 months. He hires an actress to pose as his girlfriend/fiance but he develops real love feelings for her - while still in a relationship with another girl. The only thing is that there is one twist in the story which is kind of surprising, but not shocking, therefore still predictable because they had to have some kind of a twist to shake things up a little bit. The actual ending was predictable as well.
