'Os Normais' was a successful Brazilian TV Series, composed of seventy-one episodes as per the information on the DVD. The series was such a hit, that this movie was released, explaining the beginning of the relationship between Vani (Fernanda Torres) and Rui (Luiz Fernando Guimarães). The story is very, but very funny. In this film, Vani got married with Sérgio (Evandro Mesquita) at 6:30 PM, and Rui with Marta (Marisa Orth) at 7:00 PM, in the same day and at the same church. There are lots of confusion and misunderstands, exploring jokes, bad language, and all the stereotypes related to the behavior of the 'carioca' (natives from the city of Rio de Janeiro) medium class. Like in the series, this movie is very funny for Brazilians, but I am not sure whether a foreigner will understand most of the jokes. My vote is eight.Title (Brazil): 'Os Normais – O Filme' ('The Normals – The Movie')

If you know the series from TV, this is like a longer episode. Maybe not their best ever, but a fairly amusing one. You will be curious, for it shows how the main characters first met. If you don't know anything about Brazil, then God only knows how this will hit your mind, but I suppose that absurd marriages that go crazy even before the ceremonies are an interesting joke for most people.

One of the funniest TV couple ever, makes his debut on big screen on a great movie. Rui and Vani are even funnier, totally at ease and with the best company. The kind of movie you seat back and laugh "non-stop" for the whole two hours.

"Os Normais" is a good film. Or should i say "as good as the tv series"... This may serve as a warning after all; if you dont like the tv show, keep distance from this movie otherwise go ahead, you will have lots of fun. For those who never heard of this program it will be hard to understand most of the jokes of the movie... Yes, still it will be fun, but you know... the "feeling" will be lost; and because of that i dont recommend this movie to everyone.For Brazilians folks... well go ahead... it is always a great oportunity to see Luis Fernando Guimarães, Fernanda Torres and Evandro Mesquita in action.7/10
