Primos

The movie is so sweet, especially with the actors, chemistry between lucas and mario was fantastic. No intense drama, no akward plot twist just pure sweet romantic and lovely portrayals of young gay love in the midsts of christian values and catholic customs and the challange of acceptance. A must watch

I thought this movie was very sweet. Both leads are attractive and together they had great chemistry. They really felt right together. The sex scenes were hot and yet also romantic and tastefully done. It really felt like the characters were making love rather than just having sex yet the passion of new romance shined through and the intimacy was breathtaking. That their aunt supported her nephews' relationship because of her religion instead of in spite of it was an important message of the film in my opinion. . There are so many gay themed movies out there that focus on the less happy parts of the culture such as hate crimes, depression, promiscuity , drugs, sickness, mental health issues, cheating, homophobia etc. I get that all exists and there's value in focusing attention on the challenges many face due to their sexuality but I will say I'd love to see more gay romances like this one. . It's refreshing and heartwarming to see a gay themed romance that is feel good and actually has a happy ending for a change.

What a wonderful movie ! It was such a joy to watch a lighthearted gay themed movie with a happy ending. I would love to see more movies like this being made. There is a great chemistry between the two lead actors Paulo Sousa (Lucas) and Thiago Cazado (Mario) which was incredibly believable. The Aunt (Juliana Zancanaro) was really funny and topped off a perfect film. I highly recommend Primos (Cousins) if you want to watch a perfect, gay themed feel good movie.

I watched this on Vimeo's On Demand service and it was great to see so many positive comments.

...when talking about "Cousins". These two are about as closely related as Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip so please get over it. If the film had been called "Siblings" I could understand. This is a wonderfully sweet, funny and uplifting film that pokes fun at small-town life in Brazil in which religion seems to be the only thing going on. You can feel the attraction between these two boys from the first minute they're together. It's not a question of "if" but "when". And, unlike in Hollywood this film isn't afraid to show that when people have sex they're naked and they have bodies. Hollywood might make this film, but it would definitely remove the male nudity. Thankfully, Brazilians are not so uptight. Please go see this film and take any small-town, religious relatives you may have with you.

The film has an interesting aesthetic, clearly had a good production, however, the performances leave the experience very distressing at certain times, almost like an amateur film for YouTube. The plot is simple, but still thought-provoking, with some unexpected and positive twists.

In spite of everything, I know that making cinema in Brazil is not easy and I congratulate you for that, for exposing yourself in this way and trying to do something that deviates from the standards.
