Comeback sold itself as a neo-western, a genre-reference movie. But I have to tell you that its insides adds up its own aesthetics, a pace that resembles more the "Brazilian New Cinema" school from the 70´s than anything else that's is certainly there: Tarantino´s "going nowhere" dialogues, slow panoramas, minimalist music and the ghost suburban town of Anápolis.
A ride that truly pays off due to its uniqueness than to its clear references.

Saw this one back in 2007, the theaters here in Brazil didn't seem to make money out of it so I waited until the DVD release.
And now I just came from a unrated version that sincerely blew me away even more than the first time.
You have to see it as more than a simple action flick and embrace the audacity of the cinematography - the noisy shots from pre-4k- cameras are a charm for themselves.
The characters are also very strong and they are nothing like the heroes that we usually see in pure commercial-action movies. They are the heroes of Mann's world: strong, relentless, intense.
The storytelling does not tell you more than the wide camera shots, the moody blueish noir, the sad and deep look from the actors or the amazing sound design. It is a movie that exists deeply in the details way more than it does in the surface.
A hidden masterpiece.

Being not only a Brazilian but a northeaster as well, I have to tell you that it is strange to see that so many people around the world actually enjoyed this film.
I though to be very concerned to those who would understand the language, the situations and the causes of all of this. Well, seems that I was wrong and the themes exposed here are bound to be more universal than I expected.
Every moment of Kleber Mendonças'Neighboring Sounds could be opened for discussion as subject of semiotics. The symbolism is so present and so meaningful that I was overwhelmed.
A truly masterpiece, that have to be seen with very opened eyes.
