O Doutrinador

Long: I have followed this material from when it was just a internet adapted comic, it's awesome. A little background from the third world that Brazil still is, we only make and invest in soap opera, with theatrical levels of acting, so you won't find Rodrigo Santoro's versatility and talent a lot in here. With that in mind, the acting in the critical participants of the film were convincent enough. I enjoyed very much, if our brazillian movies were to be going in this direction, it would mean pure EVOLUTION, which is not true, we are only making political biased documentaries and the cheapest comedies using youtubers.

Short Considering the low capacity of our brazillian artistic enviroment, it's a great entertaiment and i would show to people without any issue

So yeah, it deserves my 8 stars

The movie itself feels rushed during some important plot points, the story is a bit thin and you have to be very forgiving sometimes, but HEY! This is meant to be fantasy. Given the budget they had I think this movie really did it. I enjoyed it and I hope the TV series succeeds too.

Having a web comic become HQ, movie and tv series would be a first in Brazil, and I think we have demand for much more.

Cheers!

The movie is entertaining but with noticeable pacing problems. Overall a good fit for the "graphic novel adaptation" type of movie and some extra points for being a Brazilian production succeeding at doing it.

Pros: * high production value. * "Down to earth common man driven to do bigger things" type of plot. * "What if Punisher was Brazilian and targeted high valued political targets"?

Cons: * bad execution of the plot mostly due to bad pacing. * the theatrical cut feels like its missing scenes due to some odd editing.

This movie shows much more than what is seen in the scenes. First of all, that Brazilians can also make heores movies. It resembles The punisher. I guess there is some influence from other comics like Batman, the green arrow, death note.

I liked the filming, photography of the movie is pretty good. There is some mix of Sao Paulo and Rio, the night environment is really cool.

One thing I don't get it...what special agent goes to battle without a bulletproof vest?
