The first movie wasn't original at all. Minds changing? "Oh, its a couple now, so its a totally new movie". Yeah, right...
I knew what I was about to see but even knowing it was disappointing. It's exactly the same thing of the first movie: jokes about male looking female, gay gags, sexist jokes... Its as fun as annoying. The main actors are really good and are the reason for I give it 2 stars and not only 1.
But... The most annoying thing is that I came to theater expecting to watch a movie, not a soap opera. This was made by Globo and it was obvious that they would use only their cast and that wasn't a real problem, even with the awful acting of minor characters. The director runned a soap opera on a big screen and there is a plenty of useless scenes just to show "hey, I can make this special effect" but, after all, he was just saying "sorry, thats all I can do". While I was watching some meaningless scene I thought I was about to watch a TV commercial. And, yes, there as a bunch of stupid commercials of a cable TV. I don't know if we Brazilians cant advertise on films (the main character worked in an advertising company, by the way) or if they just don't accept to just show their logo besides have all the characters saying to the audience about how their products are so good and fantastic.
And... the end of the movie... here comes the spoiler...
Its just a typical soap opera ending... The teen daughter was pregnant? So she get married with her ultrarich fiancé. They switched back and everything was as normal as usual... but... she was also pregnant!!! OMG!! So they forget about divorce and get together again. Isn't that beautiful? I must say that at least on the ending the director was clever and shows a fake sequel promo.
