The idea was nice - a historical film about the role of capoeira in the ending of slavery in Brazil. Unfortunately the film was horrible. Some of the acting was really bad and the story was very slow. Clearly the director has never even heard of humour. Also the film is a homage only to capo-WIRE-a, the martial art where all the heroes are aided by invisible cables. Amazing that such a big production could be messed up so badly.
