Porto

I admitt - I saw this film especialy for Anton Yelchin. and this motif whas enriched by each scene. because "Porto" is a love story but so special, poetic, delicate , unconventional, old fashion, fascinating, lirical , than it is more than one of many stories about love. because to defines it as an old fashion love film is wrong. it is a subtle, precise and real rare exploration. of yourself. old romancies. people across your life. links who, after decades, remains unique and precious and defining everything from you are. "Porto" is a story about states. as magic expressions. and it is enough. for write a deep trait. in your memory. sure, like others films in which Anton Yelchin gives admirable roles.

Left field romance beautifully set in Porto (quaintly pictured in bad weather) playfully and a bit irritatingly shifts the perspectives on its story; artful and excellently played but not quite substantial.

All I can say is to watch this film for Anton Yelchin! A wonderful actor who died way to young. He is outstanding here as a broken hearted man seeking the why to the rejection from the woman he so loved.

Beautiful photography which creates the mood so necessary in this story!

Love this film and also saddened by it as it was Anton Yelchin's last film before he passed away. You seem him as a older man in this movie that hits even harder. What a talent and beautifully executed film.

Very predictable art movie. Since it lacks a real script, it settles instead for artsy ramblings on life and love. The director doesn't do the actors any favors, as this clunker hinges on the performances of the two leads, who, although coming off great, don't manage to have us emotionally involved. Clocking in at only 75 minutes, it still manages to be tedious and overlong, and comes off as a great student short film that was unfortunately stretched out to a feature length.

Anton Yelchin does a lot with the material he is given, and his heartbreak is almost palpable, although the viewer has no idea where it's coming from. The female lead is also good, playing off of Yelchin rather well. The only other redeeming quality are the vignettes of Porto that populate the film, and show the city in the most beautiful light possible (spoken as someone who lived there).

Liked: the photography Yelchin's performance Porto

Disliked: The script The story The pacing The editing The music (although beautiful it was far too intrusive)
