For those who are thinking about watching this movie, just do it! this movie is amazing, w/ perfect acting, and great photography, besides obviously superb music, the Brazilians who review it as a bad movie simply because they always think Hollywood is better than their our culture should go to therapy. So watch the movie and see it for yourself, and also get to know one of our best musicians of all time.

Light and at same time powerful. It keeps your attention until the last minute. I was never especially fan of the singer but this movie is a hidden gem. It deserves far more attention than it gets.

Tim Maia was one of the best singers from Brazil, but much more than that, he represented the Brazilian soul (literally). Apart from his unique voice, he had a difficult personality, was explosive, irreverent, but that actually made him very funny. He was loved also for the way he talked and his vivacious, contagious temperament, full of energy.

Unfortunately, none of this is really shown in this movie with the needed intensity. It falls flat. No passion, no vibrancy.

Acting is wooden and the jokes don't really work, probably because of the overall more or less depressing tone of the movie, which is worsened by its slow pace.

It's a shame, since Tim Maia really deserved a classy movie with international quality, for an international audience, hence be shown in cinemas around the globe. The way it is made, it's more of a conventional, boring Globo TV soap opera.

Tim Maia have one great thing: Itself. He was a great singer and it surely represent the best of brazilian music. But the movie isn't good. The dialog and screenplay is something that give you the feeling tha you are missing something.
