Criativo, original, com muitas cenas interessantes, mas ainda assim chato, completamente sem noção e difícil de assistir. Além de que eu não gostei do final =P
Brazil?... the movie that I saw had a post-apocolyptic feel with random scattered scenarios, a directionless plot, and circular writing. DeNiro played a two minute part in 142 min movie (mistake... You dont bench your strongest players Gilliam!) that revolved around a guy named S...( read more)
Best Cinematography 1985 - Best Directing 1985 - Best Editing 1985
crazy, but so entertaining. very funny. Jonathan Price was amazing, so funny and absolutely nuts. Not enough Robert De Niro, I liked Tuttle and wished they used him more in the movie. Ian Holm was another good one. Some of the dream scenes went on a bit too long, they could ...( read more)
It's hard for me to define what Brazil is. It's a strange movie, imaginative (and fantastical if I dare say so), in it's approach in depicting totalitarianism and red tape as largely the consequence of impersonal, Goldberg's governmental machinery. How this machinery uses fear mo...( read more)
"Brazil is a 1985 film directed by Terry Gilliam. It was written by Gilliam, Charles McKeown, and Tom Stoppard and stars Jonathan Pryce. The film also features Robert De Niro, Kim Greist, Michael Palin, Katherine Helmond, Bob Hoskins, and Ian Holm. John Scalzi's Rough Guide to Sc...( read more)
A MUST SEE! Too strange for a common mind, I would suggest, but if you're a thinker, you're in for an adventure!@!!
One of the greatest films ever made in my opinion and definitely Gilliam's best work.
Oh Gilliam, what happened?
Ok, ok, I can't honestly say that, seeing as though this is the first of his films I've seen. I'm feeling a little marathon of his works coming. This is just kooky fun.
My only problem is, sometimes, it's too fucking loud. It's as if Gilliam told ever...( read more)
quite simply 1984 meets monty python. beautiful, surreal, witty, and great social commentary. plus the music just makes me want to wiggle! don't go with the uncut version though, the og is the way gilliam intended it to be and it is much, much better than the re-release
For me, quite an astounding piece of art. 'Brazil' has dream-like beauty, comedy, yet it is depressing and frightening, but most of all engaging and intelligent. Visually, this movie is amazing, this is Gilliam's art. As with a lot of his films, it's thought provoking and uses ma...( read more)
You've got to see any version except what is shown on TV (known as the "Love Conquers All" version) which blows.
Brilliant film! I first say this when I was ten and it has remained in my top 20 favorites ever since.
There is probably a million ways to describe this film. A film so unrelenting in its audaciousness and its willingness to throw everything at its audience but the kitchen sink. I remember seeing this when it came out and it was nothing like I had ever witnessed. It didn't know wh...( read more)
Synopsis: Terry Gilliam's 1985 film is a surrealist nightmare of a low-level bureaucrat in a dismal world of the near future.
This film is great. Like a comedy version of 1984 and a little more surreal. I especially liked Robert De Niro.
Terry Gilliam's masterpiece! A unique movie of fantasy and dark comedy combined in a Orwell meets "Time Bandits", great acting and it's a one of a kind movie.
Una mezcla perfecta de comedia (negra) con horror distópico. De lo mejor de los 80's y la mejor pelicula de Terry Gilliam. Robert de Niro desaprovechado, eso que ni qué.
Very cool multiple layered theme it was trying to portray. It's the kind of movie you have to watch with somebody and talk about to get it. Thankfully, I had my girlfriend.
Also, this was on the most basic of channels (TVO, ie public access) which was crazy. I was actually just ...( read more)
A horrific masterpiece of unforgettable bleakness and genuine terror. It's also funny as hell.
Terry Gilliam has always been a unique director - a man with a vision determined to let nothing get in the way of his quest to make movies the way he wants to. 'Brazil' is his greatest achievement (though many of his other films come close) and brings a breathtaking Orwellian fut...( read more)
if anybody saw this earlier review, you see that i changed my oppinion. i now see that this movie needed a second watching to fully appreciate. i loved it the second time around.
A fantastically trippy film, that combines a serious commentary on society with comedy à la Monty Python. The cast was fantastic, especially Jonathan Pryce, who had me completely entranced. The visual effect of the film was impressive, both in its effects and its cinematography. ...( read more)
Terry Gilliam's take on 1984 is this oppressive anti-totalitarian movie. Confusing, visually stunning and poetic.
Epic utopian film: much of it still applies to today. Bit dated, but interesting.
An interesting take on furture big brother-like society and as such a cautionary tale we should all take to heart in this age of terrorism and a govenment's reaction to it.
