Trailer
Why watch this film?
With a solid career as a TV series director for shows like 'Freaks & Geeks' and 'The Office', filmmaker Miguel Arteta has also created a brand in cinemas: the unpretentious comedy, with a foot in the silly humor. That's how it was with 'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day', 'Rebel Without a Cause' and now with 'Like a Boss'. Starring Tiffany Haddish, Salma Hayek and Rose Byrne, the feature film bets on comedy of situations to make you laugh. Most of the jokes are absurd, almost out of tune, with the aim of creating a surreal atmosphere around the plot. Hayek's performance evidences this, full of mannerisms and exaggerated moments. There is, in fact, no message or depth of script. Just like 'Girls Trip' and 'Mother's Perfect', the goal is to take a peek into the female universe (from the male gaze, it should be said) and show women living and having fun at parties, intrigues and drinking - something that was exclusive to men in cinema. It's worth it for those who want to laugh without pretensions and in search of a passing entertainment, with some good laughs and a passing story.

From the same director
Duck Butter
This production brings a reflection on relationships and friendships. A very complex story about two strangers who decide to relate to each other for 24 hours and understand a little bit more about the so-called human intimacy. It is also a movie about discoveries, because the protagonists discover more about sexuality while trying to understand their own personality.
Beatriz At Dinner
We have all witnessed an uncomfortable exchange at the dinner table, but through sharp satire, 'An Uncomfortable Dinner' takes this idea to a very relevant terrain in our times. The clash between a Mexican migrant and a wealthy American businessman faces ideas about race, social class, gender, even something as fundamental as human compassion.
Yes Day
Based on the children's book of the same name by Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Tom Lichtenheld, 'Yes Day' is a good family comedy. In the plot, the couple, formed by Jennifer Garner ('13 Going on 30') and Edgar Ramirez ('The Undoing'), decide to do absolutely everything their children want in one day and the result is great. Following the line of movies like 'Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day' - which also has Garner in the cast, this Netflix production will captivate both the child and adult audience.
Comedy
A Brighter Tomorrow
Italian filmmaker Nanni Moretti (winner of the Palme d'Or in 2001 for The Son's Room) returns with what has been called his 8½, for obvious reasons. A Brighter Tomorrow is the story of a filmmaker struggling to shoot a movie about the Hungarian Revolution, while trying to save his marriage to his producer wife. The film satirizes the current state of cinema, and perhaps indulges a bit too much in its nostalgia. It is far from the best that veteran Moretti has to offer, but if you've enjoyed his previous films, you will undoubtedly enjoy this one.
City Hunter
'City Hunter' - An exceptional marksman and hopeless playboy, private eye Ryo Saeba reluctantly forms an alliance with his late partner’s sister to investigate his death.
Club Zero
Miss Novak joins the staff of an international boarding school to teach a conscious eating class and forms a strong bond with five students that eventually takes a dangerous turn.
Aumenta que é Rock’n’Roll
The film tells the story of Luiz Antônio, a clumsy radio presenter who, unexpectedly, finds himself in charge of a bankrupt and falling apart radio station. Relying only on his passion for rock’n’roll and a crazy team, he created one of the most emblematic radio stations in the history of Brazilian rock, Fluminense FM. Between guitar solos and signal interference, we follow the adventures and misadventures of Luiz who, on top of that, falls in love with a married announcer.
