It is a chaotic anti-film, and it is not good

Cinematography is skilled and the vintage filter to emulate Orson Welles' times is nice. The text is a mockery on Brazilian cinema industry, its niceties and conventional wisdom. However, intentional overacting, and intencional bad dubbing are silly. I know Sganzerla intended to make an "anti-film", openly chaotic, but outcome is bad, despite the film being very overrated. Time goes by and it never becomes either linear or engaging. The looping of the same scenes in a disordered way was neither smart not funny, it was just a tedious waste of time. To resume, it is a quite weird film, an experimental movie that did not actually work.
