SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

Rexanne It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

Justina The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.

Michael_Elliott Beautiful Brazil (1952)** 1/2 (out of 4) TravelTalks entry takes us to Brazil where narrator James A. FitzPatrick shows us various locations starting with a giant statue of Christ and then we see a harbor where the large buildings on shore can be seen in the water. Rio de Jenero is the main focus here as we learn there are over two-million people living there and that many consider it the greatest city on Earth. We learn about the various races and religions that live there and how no one is looked down upon. T He beautiful beaches get some views as does the crystal blue ocean. If you've seen any shorts from this series then you'll know what to expect. We get the nice narration by FitzPatrick and some nice visuals thanks in large part to the Technicolor process. For the most part all of the scenes and stories are of some interest and the visuals are certainly worth looking at.
