Featured reviews
Some movies keep their big reveals for the end of the movie. You do have a main character with psychological issues here and they are not hiding it. Fighting demons (not literally, although sometimes it may seem so on screen) is one thing, translating that drama onto screen another. It really is tough, especially when you consider the struggle the main character has to go through.
And the fact the viewer has to stay with him. It's not easy to like him all the time, but you understand where he is coming from. The neighborhood, the friends, the family, all that background gets covered. The movie does a really good job and the fight scenes are gritty and tough enough. It really is a movie that has quality and cares about its very broken protagonist ... do you care too?

Good to see Afonso doing what he does best. It seemed as if he lost his touch after the whole "Solace" fiasco.
This is a solid 8.4 to be exact. It's an interesting story, an interesting protagonist and captivating directing. There's a whole "tyler durdeen" thing going on that if you compare to fincher's original, well, there's no comparison. But it by itself works really well. The whole disturbed father figure works well - I know it's a true story, so I guess what I mean is that the *bold horrible fact */bold is well portrayed in the movie.
Cudos to the inconspicuous netshoes product placement. Don't worry. Lesser minds won't even know it happened. TNT, almost didn't see you at all.

Good acting, nice to focus more on the person "Jose Aldo" than in his fights.
But the director tries to make every action meaningful, create a non belivable villain character (with no necessity to do this whatsoever) and loses the tone of the movie.
If you like the fighter, worth watching.
In addition to the overcoming saga, the feature of the feature is the marriage between the filmmaker's style and the practice of MMA, which yields dynamic scenes, aligned to the adrenaline of the sport. In the script, it's a good way to focus on the protagonist's problematic relationship with his father...

Stronger than the World: The Story of Jose Aldo is a film that surprising me, Brazilian cinema lately this weak, we have at most three good films a year, and it left me with no expectations for the film that tells the story of one of the major UFC fighters Jose Aldo, the cast is good, José Loreto this well, Cleo Pires, Jackson Antunes, Claudia Ohana, Milhem Cortaz, Rafinha Bastos, Robson Nunes, etc., no actor commits the film, everyone is competent in their role, the direction is Afonso Poyart that made 2 Rabbits is very good, the soundtrack is good, the style that Poyart film is interesting, even the film with moments that I found unnecessary, for example the follies of Aldo, I I thought exaggerated, more Stronger than the World: the Story of Jose Aldo is very good, with great moments and proof that the Poyart has very what grow in the cinema. Note 8.0
