Truly Dreadful Film
... View MoreHow wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
... View MoreThis story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
... View MoreOne of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
... View MoreAll I can say is to watch this film for Anton Yelchin! A wonderful actor who died way to young. He is outstanding here as a broken hearted man seeking the why to the rejection from the woman he so loved.Beautiful photography which creates the mood so necessary in this story!
... View MoreI admitt - I saw this film especialy for Anton Yelchin. and this motif whas enriched by each scene. because "Porto" is a love story but so special, poetic, delicate , unconventional, old fashion, fascinating, lirical , than it is more than one of many stories about love. because to defines it as an old fashion love film is wrong. it is a subtle, precise and real rare exploration. of yourself. old romancies. people across your life. links who, after decades, remains unique and precious and defining everything from you are. "Porto" is a story about states. as magic expressions. and it is enough. for write a deep trait. in your memory. sure, like others films in which Anton Yelchin gives admirable roles.
... View MorePORTO tells accidental love story between a woman who wanna find someone lift her luggage to new apartment and a guy who cares their short-time relationship too much. (well, I'm kidding) The composition of film is very beautiful, from city views of Porto to restaurant, actress' flat, even natural while charming beauty of actress. Actor's performances on emotions are quite striking, so only part makes me sad is that his actor Anton Yelchin passed away in 2016, R.I.P.
... View MoreHonestly, I am very glad someone made this film in a time when love-movies seem to have everything except love. It's one of those films that lives with you long after watching it. Because it is raw, it feels real, it is deeply sad and simply beautiful. But it is definitely not for everyone. Porto is that kind of film only those will really appreciate who had something similar in their lives. A very strong connection with someone that lasted just a brief period of time. A week... maybe only a night. It is shot on film, and looks fantastic, it feels poetic though it is never over stylised. It shows love and connection in a painful yet very elegant and poignant way. The peace is slow, the atmosphere is strong. A truly independent and "human" film. It doesn't show anything new, it might be a bit too simple - but its honest approach makes it absolutely watchable. For those who have ever really loved someone, and then they said goodbye - it could be an important experience.
