I woke up early one Saturday morning and had nothing to do, wife still asleep. Went on Prime because that's where I usually find mildly decent action movies when I don't want to spend half an hour choosing what to watch. I saw Stallone was in the cast, so that should have been a good sign. Honest mistake.
Bad story, full of plot holes. Bad acting or bad SFX, I don't know, maybe both when the actors don't event flinch to an CGI explosion next to their car. Bad continuity when the windows that have been riddled with bullets are somehow whole again. Bad practical effects when a frag grenade launched into a house only produces light and sound, no smoke or fire or broken windows.

The impression I had on the first hour of the movie was that it was more like a scrapbook of some memorable events in Cazuza's life rather than a biography. The scenes have no connection, it seems they're only there for you to know what happened. It looks like a story told by a fan who collects news about him. There is no drama, nothing to expect, no plot at all.
The last 30 minutes aren't really a change, but it's a more dense part, because of the discovery of the disease that is slowly killing him.
The only things that save the movie are the performance of Daniel de Oliveira, not only on stage but also off, and of course the songs and poetry of Cazuza.
