Brigadas do Tigre

Of course, it can't be exactly the same as the seventies series LES BRIGADES DU TIGRE. But the chaaracters names are the same and the period too. But in the series, you had one different story in each episode, and it was rather smooth, sometimes light hearted, certainly not as tragic, gritty as the story in this film. The same problem with the UK series THE AVENGERS that was put on large screen in 1998. It could not be the same as the series. Impossible. I guess that's precisely because it was not a comedy that this film was a failure at the box office. If it had been a stupid comedy, it would have been a success. I am sure. I prefer this film as it is. Actually, this story is very modern, denouncing the "dirty" undercover political "affairs" of the government.
