Airplane Mode
TV and movie star, as well as digital influencer - and now, protagonist of a Netflix film. Larissa Manoela is the central piece of 'Modo Avião', where she plays an influencer who is forced to leave her ultra-connected life and enjoy the simple side of the countryside. Focused on the teen audience (and Larissa's fandom), the feature may not innovate exactly in its theme, but still conveys a pertinent message to Generation Z. For the older ones, the presence of the eternal Tremendão, Erasmo Carlos, stands out, who is very good as the protagonist's grandfather.
Vai que Cola: O Filme
"Vai que Cola: O Filme" directed by César Rodrigues is a hilarious comedy that will keep you laughing from beginning to end. Valdomiro, played by Paulo Gustavo, gets involved in yet another scheme, but this time he brings everyone from Ms. Jô's hostel along. The cast delivers excellent performances, and the chemistry between the characters is undeniable. The plot is well-written, and the pacing is perfect, with just the right amount of humor and heart. The cinematography is also impressive, capturing the beauty of Rio de Janeiro and adding to the overall enjoyment of the film. Overall, "Vai que Cola: O Filme" is a must-see for anyone who loves a good comedy. It's a fun and entertaining film that will leave you with a smile on your face.
Lulli
Larissa Manoela is becoming one of the most well-known names of Brazilian productions for young audiences. 'Lulli' follows the footsteps of her previous feature film, 'Diários de Intercâmbio', and shows the actress in a more adult role - leaving behind the child and teen star. The movie sends a message about listening to people more through the story of Lulli, a medical student who only cared about her own navel, but who suffers an accident and starts to hear people's thoughts. The production is fun, light and shows that national cinema is striving to create a Brazilian identity for the romantic comedy genre. 'Lulli' has a script by Thalita Rebouças and direction by César Rodrigues, the same as 'Modo Avião' and 'Vai Que Cola'.
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.
