De Repente 70

Rosana Botafogo

The movie is very silly, almost boring, predictable, and the title in Portuguese already suggests the cliché “copy and paste” of “13 Going on 30”, but it doesn’t get even worse because Diane Keaton’s faces and expressions win me over (she’s so me at Pilates, lol, and she still comes out really angry)... Not very entertaining, and not very useful, even the subliminal message is completely submerged in the monotony and predictability of the context, except for a few funny lines… Silly and simple… Mackenzie is tired of living her life in preparation for her 30th birthday. Ever since she was little, she’s always wanted to be like her grandmother who raised her, comfortable in her own skin, great at saying “no” and not caring about what others think. When she gets the mysterious opportunity to transform into a 70-year-old woman, Mack learns that the reality of the "golden age" is not what she thinks and that it has nothing to do with age.
