    This is very similiar to Forrest Gump in the way it portrays the story of an unusual man amidst a historically heavy background. But where this film succeeds is in lowering the budget and the effects (and the schmaltz) to give the characters plenty of room to breathe and develop. But at the same time, this is Cillian's film all the way and he puts in a remarkable performance. It could have done with a pinch more imagination - ala the two robins, but otherwise, it's a great film.

    Cillian Murphy's performance is absolutely astonishing. I can honestly not say enough good things about this film, and especially Cillian Murphy's performance. One of the best Irish films I have ever seen.

    Diretor de filmes como "Entrevista com Vampiro" e "Fim de Caso", Neil Jordan é um realizador que não se deixa resumir por um tema, muito menos por um estilo. O que menos podemos dizer de "Café da Manhã em Plutão" é que nada se repete, a não ser o seu gosto por personagens que parecem viver sempre da própria impossibilidade de se estabilizar em qualquer modelo, seja ele dramático, político ou sexual.

    O filme traça, como uma espécie de realismo delirante, o retrato de um inadaptado, de alguém que concebe o seu próprio mundo e que parece viver a quilômetros de distância dos outros ao comportar-se como uma figura feminina.

    Cillian Murphy é espantoso na sua interpretação e me fez quebrar qualquer tipo de preconceito que, um dia, eu ousei cativar por ele.

    O filme também é enriquecido pela fotografia repleta de cores vivas e berrantes, bem ao estilo dos anos 70 e pela fantástica trilha sonora que também evoca a década.

    a film that shows that sometimes, not taking things too seriously can be a great way to get through difficult times. i like that it's so full of optimism. cillian murphy plays the main character brilliantly, making him endearing and charming. nice soundtrack as well. very enjoyable film.

    Is a cute tale, about a boy who decide to live and give love, even if he has never received love, he decided to be happy in his particular way, been himself, he is the color in a black and white world and the fun in serious times. Cillian Murphy was completely absorb in the essence of Patrick 'Kitten' Braden and is magic in this character, great picture by Neil Jordam, i love the way he show the tale and the fantasy in it, is a trip for everyone, Kitten searching his mother, find him and his father, maybe when we try to find the essence of the movie, we find ourselves breakfast on Pluto.-

    Al principio me costó ver a Cillian Murphy vestido de mujer pero al avanzar la pelicula me fui acostumbrando y debo admitir que interpretó muy bien su papel.

    Mon commentaire sera bref: même si le concept du film m'a grandement intéressé par moments et que la performance livrée par Cillan Murphy est tout simplement à tomber par Terre, je me suis laissé embêté et ennuyer par cette histoire qui n'en finissait plus de tourner en rond. C'est bien beau de tenter de créer un malaise loufoque chez le spectateur, mais il faut quand même qu'on articule le scénario avec une bonne histoire. Je ne peux pas dire que Neil Jordan a manqué son coup avec Breakfast on Pluto, simplement qu'il ne s'agit pas là d'un film qui soit parvenu à éveiller quelque corde sensible en mon for intérieur.

    Lindo! É incrivel como mostra os acontecimentos mais doidos e absurdos de forma natural!
    A maneira como ele vive, como faz as coisas...É um filme bastante sensivel, que tem seus momentos de seriedade, mas consegue equilibrar isso muito bem!

    Recomendo!
    Obrigarotio!!

    When the movie start it seems to be interesting. But at the time Patrick start his voyage "oh my God" boring and silly. Cillian Murphys performance was Ok.
    I keep watching the movie just because i was waiting for something else to happen, but it never came.

    Hermosa. Cillian Murphy realmente sorprendente en una actuacion que nos puede mostrar que es completamente distinto a lo que es el. Creo el personaje a la perfeccion y eso es digno de un actor. Lo impresionante de la historia, es de como si existen personas que evaden la realidad o los problemas inventando/creando historias comicas y no pueden ver las cosas de una manera un poco mas negativa. Se escucha lindo, pero por otra parte de cega de lo externo. No quiero decir que veamos la vida como algo depresivo e injusto, sino que cualquier tipo de escondite, sea el que sea, puede llegar a ser malo. Una historia "comica" que tiene un mensaje oscuro detras, muy muy devastador, hace de las dos horas un lindo momento que se quiere volver a repetir. Una pelicula magica, sincera, atrevida, chistosa, deprimente... de todo. Muy, muy recomendable.

    The movie started off great with an original plot and script, but then towards the middle it got somewhat boring. Cillian Murphy was very good; probably his best role. This movie isn't for anybody, but it's for fans of enjoyable comedies.

    A young transgender man goes away from Ireland to England in search of his lost mother.
    You could just imagine how much I laughed at Cillian Murphy in the opening scene, but the truth is that he looks really good in a dress!

    strange jewel
    i have my things when i started this movie, thats beacuse the transvestite thing, but... i love this movie, the power, and optimism to defeat anything and anybody , reflected on Kitten Braden, a very convincing performance of Cilian Murphy

    highly recommended to all

    CILLIAN ROCKS AS KITTEN BRANDON!!!!!!!
    He realy made an effort to choose a character totaly different as he usualy mades his own (villains). In this one he choose a guy who always though being a girl was easy, loving others of the same sex, falling on problems and watch his best friends die or have a baby! His life was so horrible and painful...looking for a mom who dosnt want him or leave him on his own sence he was born, looking for her and see she only remembers having 2 kids and that's it...nothing involving her older son, Patrick! it is sad that this kind of things still pass on this real world, were people have this homofobia, or hate their sons or daughters to be something different from what the Bible says! This movie made me laugh, cry and made wanted to see it all the times I wanted because it was not only brilliant, it was wonderful and lovely and AMAZING! I love this story and Im glad they won some Golden Globes and Oscars too! If they made a sequel, count on me!

    The character it's not "Pussy",it's "Kitten".I've been wanting to watch this movie,and I finally had the opportunity.It's funny and serious at the same time.It's disturbing how good Cillian Murphy looks all dressed up and with all the makeup!He did an excelent job.It's a very good movie,I really liked it.

    Most people who have bothered to write a review have given it between 4 and 5 stars. I suspect there are lots of people giving the film a poor rating who haven't even seen it. I'm not sure why. If lots of people really hated it they would write a review explaining why.

    I'm really surprised this film has such a low rating, especially when so many other boring films have four+ stars! I haven't seen it yet, but with Neil Jordan directing and Cillian in the lead, I thought it couldn't go wrong! Will have to watch it and see I guess.
