Primos

...when talking about "Cousins". These two are about as closely related as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip so please get over it. If the film had been called "Siblings" I could understand. This is a wonderfully sweet, funny and uplifting film that pokes fun at small-town life in Brazil in which religion seems to be the only thing going on. You can feel the attraction between these two boys from the first minute they're together. It's not a question of "if" but "when". And, unlike in Hollywood this film isn't afraid to show that when people have sex they're naked and they have bodies. Hollywood might make this film, but it would definitely remove the male nudity. Thankfully, Brazilians are not so uptight. Please go see this film and take any small-town, religious relatives you may have with you.

But definitely not a good one either. There is always an "amateur" vibe on the plot, on extra actors, and even on main actors on some parts. Picture, camera angles and soundtrack are pretty good and overall message is a good one too. I understand where this movie aimed, and it's ok, but Brazilian cinema certainly has movies which aimed much higher.

Such a lovely film, everything, from the storyline the script the actors, all Brilliant!! Paulo Sousa is just Gorgeous, would love to see him in more similar movies, such a natural actor!! And Thiago Cadoza was the perfect foil to Paulo, one very outgoing and open the other repressed and wanting something to break him out of his funk!! The chemistry was excellent!! Lovwd Auntie Lourdes as well, stuck in her own religious well, not even knowing she was in need of something else!!

If you're in need of a Really Fun feel Good movie with an LGBTQI twist, this is for You.

ENJOY!!

Watch this movie, when you need something light, nice and uplifting. I can't remember when was the last time, that I saw such beautiful chemistry between the main couple in a movie (gay or straight). It was just amazing and unbeliveable. Even if it's the only reason to watch the movie, it's good enough- the chemistry! I'm melting away like ice cream on a hot summer's day.

I thought this movie was very sweet. Both leads are attractive and together they had great chemistry. They really felt right together. The sex scenes were hot and yet also romantic and tastefully done. It really felt like the characters were making love rather than just having sex yet the passion of new romance shined through and the intimacy was breathtaking. That their aunt supported her nephews' relationship because of her religion instead of in spite of it was an important message of the film in my opinion. . There are so many gay themed movies out there that focus on the less happy parts of the culture such as hate crimes, depression, promiscuity , drugs, sickness, mental health issues, cheating, homophobia etc. I get that all exists and there's value in focusing attention on the challenges many face due to their sexuality but I will say I'd love to see more gay romances like this one. . It's refreshing and heartwarming to see a gay themed romance that is feel good and actually has a happy ending for a change.
