on: 'The Secret Agent': Exploring a Vibrant, yet Violent Brazil (2025)
That movie was an absolute snooze-fest—way too slow and dull. I actually went to the theater with high hopes, but 15 minutes in, I felt like scrubbing the toilet would’ve been more fun.
It’s a shame Brazilian cinema is so stuck on such a tired trope like the dictatorship era. Enough already. That’s a oranje that’s been squeezed dry.
But I wouldn't bet against another one popping up this year...
At least I won't make the mistake of wasting my money and time on the same old cinematic garbage again.

Yes. A lot. In Firefox is very useful.
Using "*" + keyword in the address bar is something magical.
