Riche en amour

There must be hundreds of movies like this one. The acting is good and the movie is well produced but it lacks that bit of originality to make it stand out.

Beautiful pictures, good music, the actors are also very beautiful! Attractive movie content with humor! This is the best romance movie of 2020

The story is exactly like many other similar plotted films, the one I know dated back to 1958, an Indian Tamil-language comedy film "Sabaash Meena" - Same carefree rich hero avoiding responsibilities, get away from his dad, goes after his love as a poor family guy, swap his poor background friend in his place, confusions in climax etc, etc.. But coming to the execution, this movie did mostly same as others, but messed it up in climax... why the rush? what convinced the female lead character to forgive the male lead character? It would have taken another 5 minutes of the movie to show some scenes for the hero to convince his lover to get her back, but the movie ended abruptly without caring to tell audience why she was convinced to get back with the male lead.

The movie had fun moments, good acting, familiar story line, but with unconvincing finish.

If you want an extraterrestrial romance with mutants, full of suspense and drama, gay scenes, bad endings, know that this is not the type of film. This is a very well directed film, with a well-structured plot, beautiful landscapes, a cute and current romance, a beautiful touch of innovation on the prince's side, contrasting little-explored scenarios in the interior of Rio de Janeiro. A film that makes us smile and makes our day lighter. The first thing that makes me think when I see the negative reviews, are the envy of those who are not happy with a hetero couple and so many happy endings ...

Very attractive cast in this Brazilian romantic comedy where the tomatoe prince meets an up and coming medical school student.

Teto has a playboy reputation and he ends up making a bet with his best friend Igor, who happens to be the grounds keeper's son. The bet involves them swapping identities as they compete on an internship for a position in Teto's family's Tomato empire. Along the way Teto meets and falls for the lovely aspiring doctor Paula, who is being sexually harassed at work at the hospital. After the first day, Teto realizes that he is in way over his head and so he seeks out Monique, who has just been fired from the company for help.

The film starts out a little rough, really hits its romantic comedy stride in the middle and then is wrapped up really quickly in a "ta da" moment where everyone in the favela is growing organic tomatoes on their rooftops for money. The cast is lovely and the romantic leads do seem to have chemistry. I enjoyed a couple songs on the soundtrack...including Teto's fireside serenade.

This is a light recommendation for romantics...certainly not high on this list, but if you have run out of romantic material and you have gone through your rewatches, then maybe?

The big surprise for me was the actress Lellê who played Monique...she was lovely and did a wonderfully natural job in her role.

Review was based on watching the film in it's original Portuguese language with English subtitles.
