Great Film overall
Captivating movie !
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
All 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!
I 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.
I did not expect this to be so powerful when I checked the trailer. Two ordinary human beings ran into each other just at the right place and right time at different locations, and then, they fell in love. As I grow older, i understand why this film was made. It tells people how life works and how unpredictable it is. you can't anticipate anything nor grasp anything in life. things just happen.
PORTO 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.
