Spoonixel Amateur movie with Big budget

Mischa Redfern I didn’t really have many expectations going into the movie (good or bad), but I actually really enjoyed it. I really liked the characters and the banter between them.

irenaflux Just saw the movie and was touched and traumatized. Beautifully made and very realistic. At first I got the idea of a visionary hard working father that wants to provide for his wife and children,soon to find out he is not...Those 5 kids just wonderful! All 5 of them! I loved the way they would all take turns caring for their little brother... The way they sang together with their mom in the middle of nowhere...and making the best out of the circumstances. Enjoyed the "rebel" on the older son and his failures...The mother was very talented just a bit too naive and submissive...maybe too in love with the looser... What did not sit well at all with me was how the father would let his family beg all along but would be ashamed of a little add job he got (temporary) where he could have earned at least a meal for his kids and not let them go to sleep hungry...The movie is dedicated to Roberto Carlos ( as in the singer)? and why would that be for?

donstruan Wonderful movie that shows the lengths many poor people must go through to eke out a living. It shows the strong bond of family, strong bond of husband and wife.The acting and cinematography was so well, I felt like I was along with them for the ride.The movie opens up a world many of us never see- the everyday struggle of poverty, especially with family. What would you do to feed your family? I like the way the movie shows the conflict between pride and eating. I applaud the excellent story telling done by the director, writer, and producer.

Bravo to everyone involved. - Thnam Kanha Net

alto-comando The Middle of the World is, although not perfect, one of the most touching films I have seen this year. The performances are great, Wagner Moura and Claudia Abreu are certainly the best actors of their generation in Brazil; the story is compelling. One could only probably hope for a less sad ending. Nonetheless it is a great film. The music score is probably one of the best I have heard. The cinematography is also interesting. Although I'd prefer not to see so many wide shots of the road, but I guess the epic quality of the story would be lost without it. The alternate use of wide angle lenses and long lenses gives us a feeling of intimacy with the characters that is unique.
