Esposa de alquiler

The movie is a very good Romcom, I don't understand how it has 5 stars here on imdb. I saw some people complaining that the English dubbing is bad and I can't say anything about it, since I watched it in Portuguese. But I recommend everyone to watch it.

Besides that it seemed very inspired by Rent a Girlfriend and what made me think about it the most is the fact that the rental wife also wants to be an actress.

The film talks about Luís, who hires an actress to pretend to be his fiancée to please his mother and not be taken out of the will.

This film was starred by great actors, such as Caio Castro (Why do you cry Caio Castro? LMAO) and by other very famous actors.

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.

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.

If this is the best romantic leads that Brazil can cast ... yikes! Not only were neither lead actors at all attractive, the acting was so atrociously over the top, it was unwatchable. The ML was certainly better, though still dull, but the FL was the worst actress I've ever seen, and so unattractive it was hard to believe anyone would chase her. She was manic, pulled distracting faces, and just generally charmless (tho manic charming pixie girl was likely what they were trying to achieve). She must be a nepobaby or casting was drunk that day. That's nothing to say for the fat jokes for the one sister, like seriously, when was this produced? Had to turn off.

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.
