Following the footsteps of "O Lugar do Morto", this was the second Portuguese movie blatantly commercial. Please note that this is a good feature, for Portuguese movies since 70's used to be rather boring. As i heard on the director's presentation of the movie: "This film has all the ingredients the public want: good actors, a blonde beauty, a red sports car, airplanes, action and a good story". Wen i saw the movie i really agreed with the director. It had all the ingredients for a good ninety minutes of entertainment. I really did enjoy it back then. A note: the leading role actor is now considered one of the best male Portuguese actors to present date. I wish movies like these, small pearls for those who seek, were edited on DVD. Unfortunately Portuguese producers and labels are non consumer friendly.

Green-106 March 1999An interesting movie, with an interesting plot. The actors are quite good, and even though Portuguese movies used to be rather "dark", this one has good photography.
