Porto Audience Reviews

Boobirt Stylish but barely mediocre overall
WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
zif ofoz 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!
jonvansickle-227-428631 After hearing of one of my favorite actor's, Anton Yelchin, passing - I was devastated. I wanted to watch what he had left to be seen beyond his death, film wise.This was the final movie he filmed before his passing and I was just now able to view it, after wait almost two years...It is a simple glimpse into a single night, shared between two lovers. It gives a view from each perspective, both before and after their passionate night, and shows how a single night can leave a lingering effect on the heart and soul. Some loves are meant to last and some, like theirs, never gets to live beyond a night. There are no special effects, CGI, or drawn out plot points, which is why this movie communicates more in its hour and ten minute (not including credits) than the standard Hollywood fare. Created on actual film stock vs. the standard digital format, it gives it a more timeless feel and gives it more warmth. Not to say this is a warm movie - it is heartbreakingly beautiful in its tone and content.As a fan of Richard Linklater, it reminded me very much of Before Sunrise, but without near as much dialogue. It is also works well as a final goodbye from a tremendously talented actor, who was taken from the world way to soon.
jendy1226 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.
blzs Honestly, 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.
