O Auto da Compadecida 2

What a shame! Why did they make this sequel? The production quality is so poor. Why didn't they use the at least the same locations to maintain the originality of the first film? It's hard to find a single laughable moment in this sequel. What a waste of talent! As an admirer of Suassuna's work, it's disappointing to watch such a miserable production. It's strange how the jokes were made without any new elements, just a terrible rehash of the first movie. Even Selton and Matheus didn't bring the same emotion to their performances. I know some might say I'm being too harsh or too focused on a film made 20 years ago, but this project was doomed from the start. Every true admirer of this classic knows it.

Look, the movie is great, it has some good comedy, it shows how the characters are doing in the future (maybe not exactly), but the thing is that the movie has the same plot as the first one, but the difference here is on the judgement part, because João Grillo is the only one being judged, and Jesus and the Devil were interpreted by the same actor "as the angel and demon of João Grilo", and the judgement didn't feel the same thing as the judgement of the first movie, like, they tried to make it way more serious than the first judgement (they can do something serious but i think the execution didn't work well) Conclusion, is a great and funny movie, but its the same formula of the first movie, otherwise, i would give it a 9/10, but its a 7/10 because its a funny, but weak writting.

The history is about people that live in a very dry region o Brazil. People suffer a lot because the lack of water, but they trust in a better time of abundace. The faith in Saint Mary make them stronger in the journey.

João Grilo is the main character, in some way a lier, but at the same time a believer. His friend, Chicó, is a very funny guy, coward and a poet. Together, they are stronger, friends forever. Grilo ressurected twice because his beliefe, but he never remembers of the other side. He received some chances to change, but he always easier ways to solve the problems. He is a natural politician, he could be a good leader of that suffering people.

Haters exist everywhere nowadays. Haters will hate this review only because I rated this movie an 8.

But it got my eyes in tears at some parts (like the first one). And that's what movies are for. To make you feel human.

Of course this movie would not be par with the first one. That's impossible, the first one was a masterpiece.

However, if you give a chance, and try not to compare both movies but just enjoy the verses, the acting, the wit of the characters, you will see that it is a good movie. It may even touch you.

I prefer to live in a world where I am able to watch and enjoy this sequel (even if it doesn't compare with the original), than living in a world with only the good memories of the original movie.

A Dog's Will 2 is an utterly deplorable sequel that tarnishes the charm of the original Brazilian classic. The plot is a chaotic mess, cobbling together tired tropes and forced humor that lands with all the grace of a lead balloon. João Grilo and Chicó, once lovable rogues, are reduced to caricatures spouting cringe-inducing dialogue that feels like it was scraped from a rejected sitcom script. The direction is sloppy, with jarring cuts and a pacing that drags like a funeral procession, making the 90-minute runtime feel like an eternity. The cinematography is uninspired, and the soundtrack is a forgettable mishmash of generic tunes. Even the cultural wit that made the first film a gem is replaced by lazy stereotypes and cheap gags. It's a soulless cash grab that betrays its legacy-avoid this cinematic trainwreck at all costs.
