Probably due to the success of police series, Brazilian cinema began to give more importance to the genre. And mixing comedy into the story. I remember a while ago An Almost Double, with Cauã Reymond. And now it’s hitting theaters this Thursday Take me out of sight, produced by and starring Cleo Pires, who now uses only the name Cleo. I’m going to be very honest here. What caught my attention and made me want to see it was the presence of Fábio Jr., who I’ve loved since I was a little girl (yes, I assume!! Lol). It’s the first time he’s played opposite two of his children in real life, Cleo and Fiuk.
Roberta (Cleo) is the main character of the story. She is a dedicated police officer who will not stop until she unravels the mysteries behind the death of actress Antwerp Fox (Vera Fischer). But she has several problems to face. Her boss doesn’t want her involved. Her father (Fábio Jr.) wants her to leave everything and go work with him at the federal police. Not to mention her unresolved relationship with Rodrigo (Sergio Guizé). But with the help of her therapist, Isabela (Bruna Ciocca), she infiltrates the Bianchini Energy Realignment Clinic in search of answers. Soon she is surrounded by suspicious employees, such as receptionist Amanda Jessica (Viih Tube). Not to mention eccentric clients, such as the “canceled” actress Natasha Ferreiro (Júlia Rabello). But, little by little, Roberta will discover that she may be in the crosshairs of an even bigger scheme.
What did I think of Take me out of sight?
I warn you: the movie is complete nonsense. Haha! But have fun! It’s full of inside jokes from Fábio Júnior’s family, with several references including Cleo’s mother, Gloria Pires. The best ones go to the best of the cast, Julia Rabello. She plays a “canceled” actress who wants to do a remake of Sand women, like the twins Ruth and Rachel. It made me laugh a lot.
The story is the least important, and it makes little sense, lol. It’s another excuse for explosions, gunfire, chases. In general, Brazilian cinema doesn’t have much tradition in this, but until director Hsu Chien manages to edit it efficiently so that it doesn’t have a “poor” aspect, lol. And then there’s the cast. I usually have my reservations with Cleo, who I think is always herself. But here, she assumes that, unconcerned with merging into character. It works. She also has great chemistry with Sérgio Guizé, who is her romantic partner.
The movie still has a lot of cameos. Some work more like Silvero Pereira (great as always), Vera Fischer, and Kaysar Dadour. Others not so much, like Maria Gladys and Stenio Garcia. And of course there’s Fiuk, who’s pretty bad as an actor, but he’s pretty cute. Haha! Already the participation of Fabio Jr. is small. But, it’s always fun. It leaves you wanting more. He is always charismatic and fun! And it’s really cool to see him playing opposite Fiuk and Cleo, even though it’s in a single scene.
