'Sua ExcelĂȘncia, o Candidato' is a curious blend of comedy and political satire, where Orlando Carvalho Lopes, a political novice, steps into a world shaped by his family's legacy. The pacing is relaxed, allowing for a gradual unfolding of his character's journey, which is laced with humor and moments of social commentary. The performances are charming, capturing the awkwardness of a man thrust into a role heâs unprepared for, yet surrounded by the weight of expectation. What stands out is the film's ability to poke fun at political traditions while also showcasing the absurdities of campaigning. The practical effects, not overly flashy, serve the narrative without overshadowing the story. Overall, it has a distinctively light-hearted yet reflective tone that sticks with you.
