Balas & Bolinhos - O Regresso

Very nice movie that can change anyone's bad mood... you laugh all the time watching it. It has many bad words, but those words make the movie much more funnier! If I'm not mistaken it was one of the Portuguese movies with most spectators. The story is very simple... it's about a group of friends that meet after some years apart and decide to hunt a treasure. The four friends then have a lot of adventures and meet a lot of obstacles to finally reach their first objective which happens to be an illusion, because the treasure was not what they were expecting. It's a pity that the movie is not being translated to other foreign languages so every one can be able to enjoy all the fun about this Portuguese success although I believe that it's not a very easy translation because of the kind of word!

You must see this movie. It's a Portuguese movie made with a few EUROS and it's magnificent. It's a excellent comedy. It use very Portuguese popular sentences who made it unique in the world. It's an adventure of four friends that will make you talking about them for long time. In Portugal there are very good actors but there is no money to invest on them. This movie is almost a family production, with unknown actors and with a few resources. It's a splendid job that who was made. Maybe if you don't know the Portuguese culture it may be difficult to understand some jokes, but we many times can't understand American's or English's jokes. But its a very fun movie.

I RECOMMEND...

This is the best comedy film Portuguese that I saw. I congratulate the authors, actors, producers and all the staff. Note that since the golden age of the Portuguese movies (the 50 and 60 decades), this was the first Portuguese movie that manage to completely sold out tickets in Portuguese movies. You must see this movie. It's a Portuguese movie made with a few EUROS and it's magnificent. It's a excellent comedy. O Regresso, is also clammed as a Cult movie among teenagers. A third movie would be very welcome and would assure Luis Ismael quality as an actor and director. A trilogy named "Balas&Bolinhos" would free Portugal movie scene from Manoel d'Oliveira Shadow.

This is a great movie made with only a few euros, it is the biggest success in the history of Portuguese movie, don't just think about the characters and the history, this movie has great sound and image quality, it pictures the life of a very little minority but it pictures it right, there are people that actually do the things that are seen in the movie, the small time pimp, the immigrant, the poor guy that does anything for a couple of meals, a couple of bad guys armed with a small gun and a pocket knife. This movie is all about fun, just watch the movie trailer, if you don't like it just don't watch the movie but if you like it, you won't stop laughing.

This is really one of the best nonsense comedy movies i've already seen.

As you seat in front of the screen you start laughing like a maniac and you only stop when the film ends. This film is very refreshing because it is not just one more of those American made movies which people are fed up to watch to. This is a Portuguese movie! Yeah, for those of you that only know Manuel d'Oliveira movies and like it, don't watch this. You won't like it, it is a very hilarious and interesting movie for you to like it. If you wanna laugh till your pants are all wet, then this is the right movie!

PS: Laugh all you can laugh
