    It's worth watching

    This movie shows much more than what is seen in the scenes. First of all, that Brazilians can also make heores movies. It resembles The punisher. I guess there is some influence from other comics like Batman, the green arrow, death note.

    I liked the filming, photography of the movie is pretty good. There is some mix of Sao Paulo and Rio, the night environment is really cool.

    Punisher "made in Brazil"

    The movie is entertaining but with noticeable pacing problems. Overall a good fit for the "graphic novel adaptation" type of movie and some extra points for being a Brazilian production succeeding at doing it.

    Pros: * high production value. * "Down to earth common man driven to do bigger things" type of plot. * "What if Punisher was Brazilian and targeted high valued political targets"?

    Cons: * bad execution of the plot mostly due to bad pacing. * the theatrical cut feels like its missing scenes due to some odd editing.

    Nice film from Hq

    That's really brave and unespected...worth it. Adaptation role from Brazilian HQ. For the very first, sounds really good.

    It's a good start

    The movie itself feels rushed during some important plot points, the story is a bit thin and you have to be very forgiving sometimes, but HEY! This is meant to be fantasy. Given the budget they had I think this movie really did it. I enjoyed it and I hope the TV series succeeds too.

    Having a web comic become HQ, movie and tv series would be a first in Brazil, and I think we have demand for much more.

    Cheers!

    Average action movie with justice against the corrupted elites.

    It's not bad, rather enjoyable on the merits and quite good but not the apotheosis either. The special forces superhero who goes after corrupt elites after his daughter is murdered by enlisting the help of a young hacker. Here is a Brazilian film which mixes action and revolt against a system sclerotic by corruption and where the bad guys always come out winners. A feeling of approximation and watching a TV movie or an American series, the scenario would have been more dug and the photography and the staging too, but it's still passable.
