Actually, there is a wrong side and right side of politics. Yeah, it can be subjective but there is always points to counter proving it can be generally bad regardless of how one's view of it can be. That is why we had dictatorships regimens like communism and nazism abolished along the years. If they were that good, they would still exist spread around the world, dont you think?
Like I said, they have the right to do whatever they want, but if they are really going political that far to present a foolish protest during a festival arguing against the validity of the legal process followed according to the constitution, they are basically asking to be the target of the angry mob.
Of course it does not change the quality of the movie, but it adds a bias factor to it and its cast. From that point on, they are taking the merit of the movie simply because they are overshadowing it with silly arguments, the same the former government has been parroting for the last 10 years.
Honestly, I do not take score reviews of any sort literally, as they are subjective to the viewer. I take it mostly as a thermometer on how bad or how good the movie can possibly be, nothing else to it. There is no other way to make sure by watching the movie yourself, and I am sure as hell not going to support a movie that was made with the help of Brazilian taxes because they could not find another way to fund it. To top it off, they decided to use that to favor the government and attack the majority of its population by throwing that sorry ass "protest". If they are that biased, why do you think others wont be when they are rating low scores to the movie? Sonia Braga does not live in Brazil and for the most part must be totally clueless about politics here, she was just shoehorned in it because of money, because she likes dem dollars alright.
I came here just to say that. This widespread intolerance in our country just makes me think it really does not deserve more than it is getting. Not as long as people do not learn to respect ideas, limits and to think in the collective.
If you lived long enough, you would know it all started with LULA government, for them its all about "us vs them", its all divide and conquer for them. Just add the sheer ignorance of the common brazilian populace and you will have the result multipled by a factor of 10.
