VHS Movie Reviews of Brazil [VHS]
Movie Review: Dark Future
Summary: 4 Stars
Nice futuristic work of the future where egocentrism and personal greed has taken absurd heights.
A low profile top official has his life upside down with emotions experienced from the different epoch.
Good work is a bit old-fashioned as too much similar was later created with an advanced audio/visual technology.
Movie Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
The first time I watched this video was during a tour in Afghanistan and I saw the cover and my intrest was peaked. I enjoy watching a wide range of movies. After watching for the first time Brazil instantly jumped to one of my top 10 all time favorites. If you are the type of person who only watches blockbusters then don't watch this movie and comlain about it. This movie is for someone that knows a great movie when they see it. But for everyone else watch this movie and enjoy it. watch the Love Conquers All edition first so you can see how bad movie studios butcher films when you sit down and watch the Directer's cut.Movie Review: Terry Gilliam at his best
Summary: 5 Stars
This movie is fantastic. We had it on VHS and the upgrade to DVD is well worth it. Movie Review: Brazil
Summary: 5 Stars
It is a great brain and eye pleaser. It is a great classic movie.Movie Review: Classic Sci-Fi Noir
Summary: 5 Stars
"Brazil" is CLASSIC sci-fi noir. This movie - along with "Blade Runner" and "Dark City" - comprises my "Big 3" of the genre. It combines future and retro elements with film noir in a way that captivated me the first time I saw it on late-nite TV. The 3-disc boxed set appears to be the ultimate gift for any "Brazil" fan; it's at the top of MY wish list.
Summary of Brazil [VHS]
If Franz Kafka had been an animator and film director--oh, and a member of Monty Python's Flying Circus--this is the sort of outrageously dystopian satire one could easily imagine him making. However, Brazil was made by Terry Gilliam, who is all of the above except, of course, Franz Kafka. Be that as it may, Gilliam sure captures the paranoid-subversive spirit of Kafka's The Trial (along with his own Python animation) in this bureaucratic nightmare-comedy about a meek governmental clerk named Sam Lowry (Jonathan Pryce) whose life is destroyed by a simple bug. Not a software bug, a real bug (no doubt related to Kafka's famous Metamorphosis insect) that gets smooshed in a printer and causes a typographical error unjustly identifying an innocent citizen, one Mr.?Buttle, as suspected terrorist Harry Tuttle (Robert De?Niro). When Sam becomes enmeshed in unraveling this bureaucratic glitch, he himself winds up labeled as a miscreant.The movie presents such an unrelentingly imaginative and savage vision of 20th-century bureaucracy that it almost became a victim of small-minded studio management itself--until Gilliam surreptitiously screened his cut for the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, who named it the best movie of 1985 and virtually embarrassed Universal into releasing it. --Jim Emerson
