If you liked any movie from the duo formed by director Roberto Santucci and screenwriter Paulo Cursino, such as 'Os Farofeiros' and 'Até que a Sorte nos Separe', the comedy feature film 'Quatro Amigas Numa Fria' was made for you. With outrageous comedy, the movie talks about four friends who travel to Bariloche, in the cold of Argentina.

In this unexpected mix, with good performances by Fernanda Paes Leme, Maria Flor, Priscila Assum and Micheli Machado, we have a typical Brazilian comedy, with stereotypes levering the plot.

No Gogó Do Paulinho
Interpreted and conceived by Maurício Manfrini, the character Paulinho Gogó became a sensation over time. From the radio, he went to television, consolidating himself as one of the most beloved figures of the comedy show A Praça é Nossa, from SBT. Now, finally, Paulinho Gogó has a movie of his own with 'No Gogó do Paulinho'. Directed by the duo Roberto Santucci and Paulo Cursino ('Até que a Sorte nos Separe', 'O Candidato Honesto'), the feature film has the arduous task of making the humor last throughout the entire duration of the film, while we are more used to seeing Gogó with quick lines with Carlos Alberto de Nóbrega. This "change of scenery" is felt in the movie, which ends up having less vitality as it drags along with some lines. However, the references to 'Forrest Gump', some good special appearances and one or two inspired moments help to alleviate the lack of rhythm of 'No Gogó do Paulinho'. There are still some exaggerations, typical of Santucci's cinema, which do not convince anyone. But the important thing is that deep down, very deep down, the essence of the character remains alive.
Just Another Christmas
"The first partnership between Leandro Hassum and Netflix, 'Everything's Alright for Christmas That Comes' is the typical movie of the Brazilian actor and comedian - especially in this batch of productions with Hassum and commanded by Roberto Santucci ('The Honest Candidate', 'Until Luck Separates Us', etc'). There are many absurd situations, some mismatched jokes and a lack of sensitivity in the dosage between comedy and drama, as recently happened with the remake 'No Returns Accepted'. However, the Christmas atmosphere and the plot clearly inspired by 'Spell of Time' and 'Click' bring a nice feeling of comfort. In addition, some improvisations and last-minute ideas from Leandro Hassum, such as a story involving the Christmas turkey, are hilarious. To have fun and pass the time on Christmas."
Head Over Heels
A rarely portrayed and remembered universe in cinemas, sex shops are the soul of this national comedy, starring Ingrid Guimarães. Here, the actress plays an executive who enters the world of "sex toys" after being fired and seeing her marriage come to an end. In addition to the good humor of the situations, the movie succeeds in demystifying a bit this particular and peculiar sector, usually full of taboos. In addition to Guimarães, good highlight for the humor of Maria Paula, who plays the protagonist's partner.
Head Over Heels 2
The sequel to the successful national comedy about a woman who, after losing her husband and job, takes a risk by opening an erotic toy brand. In this film, director Roberto Santucci ("Until Luck Do Us Part") uses and abuses everything that worked in the first film to the point of exhaustion, almost without any breath of originality that we saw in the previous feature film. Fortunately, the protagonist Ingrid Guimarães continues sharp with her jokes and absurd situations, giving life and vigor to the film that, if it depended on the script and direction, would be just an anemic copy of the national comedy.
Fenced In
In this Brazilian comedy starring Leandro Hassum, a man moves from the city to the countryside in search of peace and ends up being disappointed when he meets his new neighbors. Hassum is great in the character of the protagonist and delivers good laughs. 'Fenced In' is yet another national production with the Netflix seal that delivers great entertainment. Despite using some already known formulas in the genre, the movie manages to stand out and have a look of a production made for the Brazilian audience.
