I'm a bit of a movie snob and came across this film on a plane ride and decided to give it 2 minutes and ended up watching the whole thing. Is quite funny, but you have to be adjusted to Brazilian culture and preferably speak Portuguese to thoroughly enjoy it. The dialogs feel a bit improv and are quite fast. The role played by the gay friend is where the movie shines. Give it a go!

I watched this movie to get a glimpse of Paulo Gustavo, an amazing artist who left us too soon during the pandemic. While it's a great memorial to him and all his talent, the movie also deals with an uncomfortable topic: divorce. Many movies focus on finding love, getting married and have happy endings with everlasting love, but this story investigates the after-marriage events. It does contain some cliche lines at the end, but I quite enjoyed them. The camera work could use a lot of improvement (at times, it was WAY too obvious they were shooting a scene because the actor's positioning was very artificial and camera-faced). That being said, it's an enjoyable, honest movie that makes you think about life and friendship.

"Minha vida em marte" ( dec,2018 ) is a sequel inspired by the movie "Os homens são de marte e é pra lá que eu vou" in which the main character, Fernanda (Mônica Marteli), lives a 40-years-old woman that found the love of her life and nowadays lives a crisis in her marriage. During the film, her gay best friend Anibal (Paulo Gustavo) helps her to overcome the divorce and teaches her in loving herself. All these things happen in New York. It is very sad, isn't it? haha Paulo Gustavo is a talented comedian and his moments in the movie are very funny. I like his job, but it was not enough to save the script.

The feature is directed by Suzana Garcia, Monica Marteli's sister, a beginner in movies direction, maybe this explains something. However, the movie's tickets sold until March 2019 and it exceeded the 5 million mark in Brazil. It's a good number. Anyway, I think that this movie was not for me, and people of the same age as mine, because the plot is very boring and cliché. Nevertheless perhaps, there are a lot of people that live the same dilemma and identify with the movie. I didn't like the plot and for this it is not recommended.
