I will simply tell you that the scenario, the plot, the characters, the direction, the production values, the soundtrack are absolutely fantastic. The casting and the acting are brilliant. The main lead in particular is outstanding.
I am extremely happy to have had the curiosity to watch this film. It is quite rare nowadays to find such a little gem that manages to be clever and funny, without being cheap, gimmicky or silly.
Great entertainment, the way it's meant to be. I would give it 8.5/10 if possible.
As a side note, this was the 2nd Brazilian movie I saw this month (after "Moebius", and maybe the 3rd within the last 12 months (After Elite Squad II), and I will definitely keep my eyes peeled for any movie coming out of Brazil due to quality productions and originality. Do not change anything Brazilian studios!

This was first Brazilian movie I ever watched, thanks to HBO.
Movie is quite interesting, showing us another perception of time traveling but thing that i like the most in this movie is the music. Especially main song that became one of my most favorite songs in all (btw, originally, song is called "Tempo Perdido" by Legião Urbana.
After this movie I started to watch more movies and series from Brazil. I have to admit that i like almost all of them.
Advice to all, try watching also Argentinian movies as well as Spanish.Of course, Emir Kusturica's movies, too. Maybe people that used to watch Hollywood movies will not be able to see their quality from first watching but it worth to try.
And I almost forgot one thing, Alinne Moraes is so pretty.

this movie is subtitled, but so what, reading isn't that difficult and this movie was so very refreshing from Hollywood movies written by robots, an actual story and get this, characters ! brilliant soundtrack, great story, what's not to like about this film, the soundtrack is great, have i said great too many times regarding this film ? sorry but it just a great film, watch it.
I'd seen the trailer for this movie in theaters and thought it would be like most other films, which has no plot, and calls for sex scenes to give audience, apparently, I was wrong, big time.
The film is spectacular, considering that this is not a those films that usually stand out when talking about the violence in Brazil, such as Elite Squad, City of God, between more ...
this is the first national film I watch, and I can say that I really liked, and at any time to distract me, worth watching every second of this great national production, a comedy and history novel, very well done, with a bit of fiction too, haha Recommend and much, congratulations by the Director, continue producing more films of this genre and that is not appealing to most movies are national.
Watch, you will not regret it!

The film "The Man from the Future" (or "O Homem do Futuro" in original) has made very vivid and bright impression on me. I am proudly giving this film rare 10 points of 10 ! The reasons are described below.
First of all, the film is about love. About loud, bright and sometimes even furious love. The film does not show snot, it does not show vulgarity or nudity, no violence. The film shows just real emotions.
Secondly and thirdly, the plot, the scenario is very great and here you will see not only the complicated and tricky story line, but also realistic effects of time travel. Just like in the classic "Back to The Future" trilogy, where characters disappear in future when their past has been changed. I would say that this film is a good example of classic "Science Fiction" genre.
The play of the actors is very good and realistic.
The soundtrack is great.
The film has a happy end, leaving only the positive associations in the memory in the head. It is very important for qualitative films.
If you like time travel and bright emotions, then this film is for you.
The only strange moment is the "popularity" of the film in the modern world. I wonder, why it has not yet been officially released in many countries. I hope, this mistake will be corrected in the future.

Did you know
- TriviaRadiohead's special permission was granted in order to their song "Creep" be on the movie's soundtrack, which is sung by the main actor, Wagner Moura.
- GoofsContrary to the comment before, "Creep", sung by Wagner Moura, does not represent an anachronism. The song does not play at the party itself. Instead, it was used in two scenes to match the feelings that Zero was experienced at the time. Any song composed until then (2011) could have been included in the soundtrack, as long as it did not play at the party.
