It's not a bad piece at all.
But it's terribly far away from doing justice to the great figure Carlos Marighella was.
Despite being a great production, the public was expecting even more from Wagner Moura and the brilliant cast.
It would do a good pair of episodes in a Tv Series maybe? But for a movie it lacks complexity, political context, historic data important events, etc.. There's just no enough temporal information, making it less realistic.
Although it shows some potent heavy violent scenes , sometimes it even seems like a soap opera, lots of clichés and weak plot and script as well. Just too personal and not that much pedagogical in a critical sense.
In my opinion it's frustrating, because it was the chance to promote some educative content.
