Movie Reviews of Maria Rita: Segundo Ao Vivo
Movie Review: You WILL fall in love!
Summary: 5 Stars
I agree with everything the other reviewers said, and won't repeat it. If you have ANY interest in modern Brasilian popular music, you should check this DVD out. This is NOT 3-chord, over-echoed sappy pop, but complex, sensitive, hard-driving, emotionally charged music that will draw you in and leave you breathless. (No, I don't get kickbacks from Warner Video!)
If you've seen her first DVD (also completely worth getting) this will be a welcome addition. If this is the first you've heard of Maria Rita, you will absolutely fall in love with her, her band, and these songs! Since much of her first two albums was recorded live in the studio, it's great to see them all play live, either in the studio or a big hall. I had the privilege of seeing MR and her band live in Chicago last year in a very small venue and the DVD is very similar to that experience. She is truly an amazing performer, and even when rocking out, brings you into the music in a startlingly intimate way, and she and her band have a playfulness that's contagious.
My only wish is that the English subtitles included translations of the lyrics; once you know what some of the songs mean, they become even more captivating. Some are about love, some loss, some confusion, some despair, some poverty, but all are beautiful, most are danceable, and you'll find yourself singing along in Portuguese before you know it.
